  Isaac went out of his way to find a clear sky! It was very cloudy in the Yellowknife area. We went east first and no luck. Then we went west for a little bit more than an hour and we finally found a clear sky! But there was no aurora, we wait for almost 2 hours. Then there was an amazing aurora outburst even with a full moon! There was also several shooting stars too! One even with the aurora together! Isaac continually searched for a clear sky and aurora forecast through updates! Thank you for this fantastic wonderful experience! I totally recommend this tour to anyone who has never seen the aurora borealis!

  Korean. There were two kinds of hunting, but I don't go anywhere close, and I look for Aurora and go far. I'm trying to make the end time look as aurora as possible. The price was the cheapest, but satisfying. Take a good photo and get it on Google Drive. 25.09

  Very good experience with Northern Lights Tours, an amazing and awesome night to see and enjoy the aurora explosion. Tour guide, Kelly, and the driver are very professional, they made their best to let everybody happy during the touring.

  Our guide was diligent, knowledgeable, and personable. Our driver was excellent. The guide quickly altered the itinerary to maximize our aurora viewing. He also took photos of all of us (and multiple photos of some). The bathroom break was at a well-lit, heated location. The snacks were delayed because of the fantastic aurora displays, but the maple cookies were excellent. We were very pleased with this tour.

  Announced something and delivered another. Say starts at 20:00 but picked only at 21:45. “Offer drinks”: only hot chocolate at the end. Driver wasn’t carefully and the bus has no seatbelt. Less than I was expecting.

  Julian was an amazing driver and took us to great spots to see the northern lights. We got hot chocolate and maple cookies to warm us up.

  It was an amazing and awesome night to see and enjoy the aurora explosion with Northern Lights Tours. Thanks Julian and Hailey for their passion and profession, tried best to look after the best location for aurora even on a cloudy night. And they took so many beautiful photos and let us download for free.

  Isaac was very hospitable and care for all the visitors. The bus driver was very accommodating. We were awe in seeing the beautiful Aurora and the picture taken sessions were quite relaxing.

  Looking back, it was probably my mistake to give this company a second chance after such a disastrous first night. Unfortunately, the experience only got worse. The operator told me they would arrive before 10:25 PM. I was outside waiting, but because of the cold and heavy smoke, I stepped inside briefly for a glass of water when the time had already passed. At 10:26 PM, I suddenly received a message that they were outside, immediately followed by another one saying they couldn’t wait any longer. I rushed out within seconds, only to see the bus leaving. I called and emailed right away, begging them to come back, but the operator didn’t respond until 10:31 PM, saying it was “too far” to return. In the end, I paid for a service I never received, and the operator showed zero willingness to solve the issue. This was one of the most disappointing travel experiences I’ve ever had. I regret trusting them again after the first failure. For future travelers: don’t make the same mistake I did — avoid this tour.

  I have booked tours all over the world through Viator, TripAdvisor and similar platforms, and I have never had an experience as unprofessional as this one. For my first tour on April 29, I provided all of my accommodation details during the booking, since pick-up from the hotel was included. However, it seems the operator never received this information. He contacted me asking where I was staying, and I promptly replied. After that, I never heard back. From 5:00 PM until the 10:00 PM tour start, I tried calling and messaging repeatedly with no answer. I even contacted Viator’s Help Center because I was left completely in the dark. In the end, only after my partner called the operator’s phone multiple times did we finally get a response. He told us to wait at 10:50 PM — but he didn’t arrive until 11:10 PM, leaving me waiting 20 minutes outside in the freezing cold. Although I eventually joined the tour, I had already booked another one out of fear I would miss out, and I had to reschedule that tour at my own cost. This level of communication failure is unacceptable, and no traveler should go through this kind of stress.
