Amazing Northern Lights Tromso tour

5.00Absolutely amazing, better than we could have imagined! It was cloudy and raining/snowing in Tromso, but Franz found us clear skies at our driver Shelty’s (sorry if I am spelling incorrectly) property! They took beautiful photos, gave us a great meal, made a fire, had hot juice or chocolate to drink. It was such an incredible experience and we are so grateful to the whole team for an absolutely incredible and unforgettable experience!!!

5.00I must say our experience was simply fantastic!! Specifically our guide Ference and the driver ( apologies I can't remember his name) they both were awesome. Ference made the trip interesting and he was confident, knowledgeable and took us to right place at the right time to see and experience the Northern lights. Loved it thank you Ference ( Arctic Adventures) it was truly an unforgettable trip with awesome photos

5.00We had an amazing trip and were very fortunate to see an amazing light show. Our guide Ferenc was super friendly and as a bonus took some great photos and sent to us a few days later. We had a lovely driver Stein. And the bus was clean and warm. . There could be an improvement, scrap the freeze dried meal and just have the hot chocolate and something sweet, cake or chocolate bars.
Fantastic experience

5.00An amazing experience last October! Alex was very knowledgeable, and worked hard to find us a good spot. It was quiet with a small group and was wicked finally getting to see the northern lights. But even if we hadn't of seen them the stars were mesmerising. Thank you to both Alex and Svein ❤️
