Full description

Explore Norway's wilderness and search for the northern lights on this van tour from Tromso. Sit around a campfire and enjoy warm drinks and snacks while waiting to see if the lights will appear.

Starting from the Tromso city center, travel through the Fjordlands, Laplands or the outer islands of Troms in search of the Northern Lights. Weather permitting, make a fire and take portraits under the spectacular lights. Lasting anywhere from 5 to 9 hours, the tour stops along the way to get a view of the fjords and the landscapes that were formed by glaciers over the past 1,000 years. Once a place is found, stop to watch the lights and enjoy some marshmallows for roasting with hot chocolate. Put on the snow suits provided if you get cold. With a focus on photographing the natural wonder, your tour guide can help set up most cameras. The guide also brings their own camera equipment to make sure the beauty and magic of the night is captured.

  • Hot drinks
  • Use of snowsuit
  • Photo portraits
  • Guide

It was a cloudy night in Tromsø and the chances of seeing the northern lights were slim, but we were lucky that we could still see a glimpse of the Aurora even just for a short time. This is not your very commercialized northern lights chase tour. It's quite personal (as the tour participants number is small) and you get to interact with your guide and other fellow travellers too.

The guide was very informative and ensured we saw Northern Lights. We found a spot 2 hours away from the city and had set up our campfire. We had marshmallows and also hot chocolate. After waiting for about 2 to 3 hours without any visible light activities mainly because of the thick clouds, the guide suggested we should move and find a different place. 30 minutes into the drive, the skies cleared and stars were visible. The guide quickly stopped the car by roadside took some shots using his camera and said we can get some photos around here. So we pulled in to a side road and tried our luck again. The dancing lady started to appear. Spent about 1 to 2 hours taking photos and just enjoying the lights. The only drawback I had was the van that we traveled with, lacked heated seats. Especially after spending hours under the snow. The built in heat wasn't sufficient for a group of 8 people.
