We had a great time with our family. We even had the opportunity to see the Northern Lights and with the advice of the guide we were even able to take nice souvenir photos and appreciate the Northern Lights even more. We thank the patience of our guide despite our 15-month-old little girl who during the guided tour had decided to go for a walk. The possibility of drinking tea and chocolate is very pleasant. Thank you very much for this moment, it was really a great time :)

We were unbelievably lucky to see some incredible aurora! The tour guide was friendly and helpful! He clearly loved his job and the topic of Aurora Borealis. We would love to come back!

Cozy and informative tour. Very knowledgeable guide. Unfortunately, we were not blessed with good weather. Toasted many marshmallows by the fire.
