From beginning of September to April the chances of seeing the Northern Lights in Northern Norway are great.

The weather (cloud cover) and the geomagnetic prognosis determine where the road takes us on the given day.

We will take you where the chances of clear skies are the greatest and the best locations for seeing the Northern Lights.

We go all in to find the Northern lights by checking 25+ different spots. Some nights we have a late return to Bodo (like 2 am).

Last seasons we have had a hit rate around 80 %. Before the trip starts we will advice on how the chances to see the lights are.

We head out from town in a comfortable Mercedes 7 seater van (4WD) with panoramic sunroof.

  • An unforgettable experience

    My first Northern Lights sighting - it was an unforgettable beauty🤩! Ivar has taken us purposefully to various places in the mountains and on the beach. Between the individual hotspots, he kept an eye on the forecasts for the next sighting and explained a lot about the formation of Aurora, Sun, Earth, etc. Although my English is bad, I could understand his explanations. He also speaks a bit of German, so I felt in good hands the whole time😁. We were a small group (2 people), in his car have 5-6 people space, which I find ideal for such a tour. A tour with him I can absolutely recommend! I would book with him again immediately!

    We did the trip with Ivar, who was great from the start. Early contact, and went to pick us up early, when the forecasts looked good. This was fortunate, as the lights were gone later in the evening, so we are grateful for the lights we saw in the early evening. We did get to see a lot of beautiful places, even without a big light show above. He was great to show us the different resources they use to investigate the probability of seeing the lights and about the lights in general. Really interesting to talk with in general Also, he had snacks and hot drinks, which always wins me over. Lastly, when we had been driving for several hours without much luck. Ivar took the effort of a detour, to find moose, which we really wanted to see. And we succeeded in finding a young one very close by. So all in all, a good experience, despite the lack of activity in the sky

    The positive reviews of Nordland Adventures are 100% accurate! Ivar was in contact with me several days before my arrival. I had a short stopover in Bodo a few days prior – I became worried as it was extremely windy. 😊 Once I finally arrived, Ivar reassured me and so we went to look for the Northern Lights. It was an amazing experience – the lights lasted pretty much for the entire night – the geomagnetic storm certainly helped! Ivar is very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor; he took me to some great spots for viewing! He gave me pointers on how to best capture the lights with my camera. He was also in touch the day after recommending a visit to the shrimp boat! Very yummy and fresh shrimp indeed! Ivar truly cares about your travel experience which was refreshing to see! I hope to be back! I definitely recommend Nordland Adventures! Thanks again!

    Ivar was an excellent guide and provided us with plenty of information about the Northern lights via WhatsApp before our tour started. We were in a very small group in comfortable transport and provided with water, and offered a hot drink. Ivar kept us constantly updated on the hourly forecast of the Northern Lights. We were all asked how long we wanted to spend at each stop and covered many areas where the lights were forecast at their best. Ivar gave us a lot of information about the culture and facts about Norway and gave us the opportunity to spend as long as we liked on the trip. It was an unforgettable and highly enjoyable experience. Ivar sent photos to us of our trip and it is definitely one we would recommend highly!!

    If you can book one tour, book this one! It truly was an unforgettable night. Ivar adapts to the needs of the group and takes you wherever the lights are best. We set off early and we went out to a fjord and a frozen lake. We got to go out onto the lake and an explosion of lights happened in the sky, I laid back on the lake and just enjoyed the experience. The cold didn’t bother me too much, but if you don’t dress warmly, you’ll definitely feel it, especially if it’s windy! Oh and don’t worry about needing a camera. Ivar brings one with him and takes shots of you, the group and the lights and shares them with you the next day. Just sit back and enjoy the experience! Truly, thank you Nordland Adventures for a wonderful night

    I was solo travelling in Bodo when I met Ivar and the Nordland Adventures Team, I have to say that was one of the best tours of my life and I had an amazing time! Ivar shared everything about the northern lights, he took us to the best locations and we were lucky to see a big northern light while we were walking in a frozen lake! Was unforgettable and I really grateful for this experience! I highly recommend this company to everyone specially if you are solo travelling. Oh, and also the photos were amazing

    We had an amazing experience. Of course the lights aren’t guaranteed but we were lucky. Our guide was excellent. A wonderful photographer and provided photos of us with the lights in the background. So cool. It was windy and that made it a real adventure. This is a must do tour in Bodo. Dress warmly. Guide took us to a variety of places to stop and see the lights which was great because we had various backgrounds for our photos. Very comfortable vehicle.

    This trip was absolutely incredible and one of the highlights of our time in Bodø. We toured the beautiful area north of Bodø by car, stopping at several different locations to get the best possible views of the Northern Lights. Each stop was thoughtfully chosen for dark sky spots and a fjord offered stunning scenery. Ivar the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. He shared fascinating information about the solar system, stars, and the Aurora Borealis, explaining the science behind it in an engaging and easy-to-understand way providing lots of information before and during the trip. His enthusiasm and genuine interest made the experience even more special. We were kept warm and kindly provided warm drinks and homemade biscuits. Me and my mum left the experience with lovely memories and sent afterwards photos Ivar took which will be special memories for life with us and the northern lights. If you’re visiting Bodø and want an unforgettable Northern Lights experience with a guide who truly loves the subject, I highly recommend booking this trip. You’re guaranteed a great time!
