Full description
Journey outside of Tromsø, away from the city's light pollution, in search of the Northern Lights together with an experienced guide. Marvel at the immense majesty of the Arctic as you share stories with your companions by a crackling bonfire. Depart from the meeting point in the center of Tromsø and embark on a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience in the Arctic wilderness. Your experienced guide will then lead you in the pursuit of the spellbinding natural phenomenon that is the Aurora Borealis. As you search the skies in multiple locations, take in the rugged beauty of your surroundings. Listen to local myths and stories about the lights, as well as a scientific explanation about why they exist. After finding the best spot to watch the lights, crunch through fresh snow surrounded by towering mountains and deep fjords. Take the time to really admire this incredible natural display of light, where colors dance in the air in beautiful, mesmerizing patterns. Keep your energy up with hot drinks and snacks. Then be taken back to memories of summer camp as you roast marshmallows on a smoky bonfire. Take lots of great photos throughout the night. Your guide will offer advice to set up your camera properly, and also take photos of your group with the Northern Lights in the background. After a memorable evening, you will be dropped off at your accommodation in Tromsø.

The experience is wonderful and well organized, it would had been excellent if we could seen the northern lights but as the tour guide anticipate us before setting off to it, the weather was not good too much cloudy and our chances of seeing them were too low we choose to stay any ways even when the guide was honest about it.

We had our tour yesterday. Guide Katharina and driver Chris. Of course, the fact that Katharina comes from Germany was a great plus. The tour was incredibly great. We saw a lot of great northern lights. Katharina found a nice spot to stop. Campfire, soup and marshmallow were great. We also dropped out directly at our hotel and are looking forward to the photos Katharina took.

We drove quite purposefully to a place and as soon as we arrived we saw slight northern lights. These then became incredibly strong and beautiful and our guide said it couldn't get any better. Photos were taken of us which we were able to download the next day. During all of this there was a campfire, always hot cocoa or tea and we could roast marshmallows over the fire. On the way back our guide put on a song to celebrate the sighting of the lights, which was pretty funny. Afterwards he showed us songs from Norway - Joik music. This tour was just really great and can only be recommended!!!!
