The transport will be a comfortable bus to the destination and you will have several guides available for you to ask questions and learn about the Northern Lights. The guides will locate the best place to make a camp. During this camp, the guides will have a lesson and tell you the story behind the magical Northern Lights. When the Northern Lights finally show itself, photographers will be ready to take professional photos of you. Small Group 15 People Max: This product is for the people that appreciate a more private and cozy experience during transport and around the bonfire. You do pay a higher price. But not without any reason. The reason you take this product is because you want more attention from the guide. That also means you will have the opportunity to take more pictures during the safari. You will also be offered more food options, like reindeer-soup and grilling sausages over the bonfire. This is of course included in the price. Both products drive to the same area and will have the same chances of finding the Northern Lights! Our guides speak several languages. That being said, the Safari will be done in English, but you can request to be seated in the bus together with a guide that speaks your languages to help with translation. We can not guarantee that the guides speak your language. The Safari might last longer than 6 hours if necessary to find the lights. So be prepared for longer nights.

While we search for the whales, our passionate guides will share their personal stories from the Tromsø area and interesting sights that we can see from the fjords. Of course, a whale watching tour would not be complete without an abundance of information about the Humpbacks, Fin, Sperm whales and/or Orca's. Once the whales have been spotted, we will switch to our electric and silent engine to minimize disturbance to the whales. The vibrations and noise from the engines have been cited by researchers as a large disturbance to marine life and whales.
