Join our Northern Lights tour with a friendly local guide and an experienced driver. We leave Tromsø and travel to carefully selected locations maximizing your Aurora Borealis chances. Warm drinks, traditional Norwegian snacks, and thermal suits provided.
Your journey begins in Tromsø city center aboard our comfortable Mercedes Sprinter minibus. This adventure takes you along the stunning coastline, through valleys, or to Finland – depending on weather and aurora activity. Destinations chosen to escape light pollution for optimal viewing.
When the aurora appears, your guide captures high-quality photos of you under the Northern Lights and provides photography tips. Your guide shares insights about Arctic life and aurora science while you enjoy refreshments. When conditions allow, we set up a cozy bonfire.
Northern Lights cannot be guaranteed, but every display is unique – from soft movements to vivid colors. This makes each sighting exciting for first-timers and experienced watchers

Well organised & quick to respond to enquiries before the trip on the location for pickup. Very safe & comfortable driving & information as we searched for the aurora. They found a couple of beautiful settings & at one location we were blessed with the weather & aurora activity. Bonus was the fantastic homemade cake.
