5.00We had a very good experience with this tour. Today’s weather conditions were perfect to see, and they were shown not only once, but during the more than 4 hours we were watching them. Our driver and our guide (Joan, sorry if it's not spelled that way) were great. Joan knew a lot about the auroras and a lot of very interesting things about Tromso, so we learned more about life here. The campfire was an important part of the experience in the end, despite the harsh cold (I recommend putting on the warm clothes they offer), sharing a hot (and very rich) soup and a few cookies with hot tea with the group created a warmer and closer Mood. Tour and Enterprise highly recommended!
Wow, an amazing adventure!

5.00Wow!!!! What an adventure. The bus picked us up outside our hotel, they’d even put a booster seat in for our little boy. The bus was super clean, modern and cosy. We had a brief introduction and explanation of where we were headed and then a bit of background into our guide and the driver. The northern light show that followed was breathtaking. We got loads of our own pictures and professional ones done by our guide. We sat round a campfire and ate delicious soup, drank hot tea/juice and at cookies under the aurora and it was magical. We were given an email with clothing instructions and then given a thermal suit when we got out there so we were super warm and protected by the elements. Our guide was so knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. His love of the aurora and all things science was super cool and our little boy really enjoyed learning about the lights. We were super lucky with the lights, we left at around 5:30 and returned back at around midnight. Can’t recommend these guys enough. Amazing experience, worth every penny, trip of a lifetime.
Super from A to Z

5.00The tour was an absolute highlight! Through the guides there was a very familiar and funny/beautiful atmosphere in the group! The information we received during the outbound journey was great and really exciting! Although it was almost impossible to see the Northern Lights due to the weather, we were given a beautiful view of the natural spectacle! The soup was also very delicious and warmed from the inside! Fully recommended!! If a Northern Lights tour, it's with Blue Puffin!! Anytime very happy again!!
Magical experience!

5.00What a fantastic experience! They were passionate about finding the best conditions to see the lights and used everything in their hands to make it possible. Weather was terrible everywhere and they took us to the one spot with clear skies. Bus is very comfortable, the soup is great and they so nice providing great info about Tromso, the lights and so many other things. The whole family loved it!
Very good service -...

5.00We had an unforgettable night. Our driver and guide knew just where to go to see the lights. As soon as we got out of the mini bus, the lights started showing up. Our guide took amazing photos of us with the lights. We had a nice campfire with yummy homemade soup, as our guide educated us on the lights. As the clear sky began to fill with clouds, it was decided to pack up and move to another location. Success again. The lights showed up and mesmerized us once again. I will never forget this experience and Blue Puffin. This company is an excellent choice, and I highly recommend them. I know there are lots of companies out there that offer the same thing, but Blue Puffin really cares and knows what they are doing.
A most incredible night with the most incredible people

5.00We had an incredible night. Our driver and guide were wonderful and friendly. We were impressed by our guides' knowledge of the Northern Lights and knowing exactly where to go to see them. He is also an amazing photographer and was able to perfectly capture the moment. We truly had a VIP experience that we will never forget. This company is the real deal and I highly recommend them. Also, a big thank you to Monica, the owner, for the delicious homemade soup and for making our trip happen. We will forever be grateful for this once in a lifetime experience. Thank you all so much and may God bless.

5.00Such an unforgettable experience! The tour was absolutely amazing — our guides were super friendly, helpful, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we got to see the Northern Lights. They kept chasing the clear skies until we finally found them, and it was totally worth it! 🌌💚 The photos they took were stunning, such great memories to bring home. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tromsø. You can really feel how passionate they are about giving everyone the best aurora experience possible! 🥰

5.00On the night of our tour weather conditions in Tromso were very unfavorable for Northern Lights viewing. However, Linda, our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide took us to the perfect spot with a gap in the clouds and we experienced an amazing display of the aurora borealis! Linda was persistent, patient and optimistic - checking out a number of potential viewing locations before finding the right spot and ensuring that we quickly left the van and did not miss the start of the display. The awesome light show, campfire, hot drinks and snacks made for an incredible night!
