“absolutely amazing guides, we went by a big bus, we got lucky with the strength of auroras and the guides found a stunning place to see them. The photographer did an amazing job, we got great photos. We also had a bonfire and hot drinks with cookies and talks about northern lights. We saw some lights from the city the previous day, but I would still recommend it to everyone, as the area they srive to is so far from light polution you can see so many stars and a very nice view. 10/10”

I’ve tried another company before, but it was never at this level. Everything was well organized, professional, and truly memorable. We took so many photos during the tour, and all of them were for free. I would highly recommend this company to everyone, and I will definitely book with them again if I visit Tromsø another time.”

“We went on 2 separate trips to see the Aurora, this was our second favorite but still really good. What fell just short is we do wish we had the thermal suits and better drinks/snacks. But that is somewhat splitting hairs. We didn't need it, but due to a smaller group size they changed from a large bus to a minibus and so we didn't have a bathroom on board. The team did a good job of communicating and finding a good spot, and we got great views of the aurora.”
