5.00Amazing experience chasing Northern Lights with Artic Adventure Tours. Thanks for all, Alex and his boss the driver. They cared us as if we were their family, giving gear to resist low temperatures and feeding us with reindeer stew and couscous.That night will remain in our minds forever.

4.00Frenec was a great guide and our driver was really on top of everything! We had a cloudy night and were very worried we wouldn't get to see anything, but the team put in a lot of work to ensure we were in the right spot and saw the lights! I wouldn't recommend the food, but that was a minimum bump in an otherwise fun evening!! The suits are a MUST, and it was great they provided them and boots.

5.00We had a great experience. Klara, our guide, was very kind and knowledgeable and together with our bus driver we had an awesome team. From the pickup to the food, the experience was flawless! We were provided with everything from warm suites to gloves and boots and there was even a lactose- & gluten-free meal option, although it was a bit spicy. Klara made us a nice campfire, told us a little more about the phenomenon and took great pictures that she sent to us 2 days later. Of course there was a little bit of luck involved but the team seemed very experienced, professional and super enthusiastic, maximizing the chances to see the Northern Lights. I can definitely recommend this tour!
Super tour
