Northern light
Dreaming of witnessing one of nature's most enchanting spectacles—the mesmerizing dance of the Aurora Borealis?
Let our knowledgeable and enthusiastic local guides transform your dreams into reality.
You'll be whisked away from the city lights to the serene darkness of fjords, forests, and mountains, spanning a vast area of 300 km, including remote spots deep within Finland. Our guides, well-versed in the region's secrets, will select the perfect location for your Aurora experience.
While anticipating the Aurora's appearance, indulge in hot chocolate and cookies for a cozy beginning, and if weather permits, gather around a crackling bonfire.
Your guide will regale you with tales of fact, fiction, tradition, belief, and superstition surrounding the Northern Lights.
Capture the magic with professional photographs taken by your guide, which we'll gladly share with you the following day. Plus, we'll assist you in maximizing your own camera or smartphone's capabilities, from mastering manual settings to capturing that perfect shot. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
After the tour, we'll ensure your safe return to hotels within the city center. For accommodations outside the city center, consider booking our convenient drop-off service on Tromsø Island or elsewhere.
