We had Jann as guide and he drove us to 3 different spots to see the aurora from different angles, he gave us tips on how to get good photos with our Phone/camera and even helped with some pictures. Beside the amazing Northern lights, we really enjoyed Jann’s explanation on how activity is measured, how/when we see them, and a lot of interesting info based on his experience, he kept us entertained too during the whole experience. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Jann for a great experience!

First we made a stop somewhere in the mountain then suddenly the aurora is getting bigger and Jann told us to get in the van and moved to better location, he drove us fast but safely. Within a few minutes we arrived at better location with better foreground and lucky for us the aurora was still big even getting bigger. Jann was very knowledgeable and he also lend me a tripod. Overall our experience with Jann was great.
