Itinerary

Stop 1

We meet in Tromso, but we travel where the sky is the best! This tour is specifically designed to maximize your chances of seeing the Northern Lights—a natural phenomenon that cannot be guaranteed. The weather around Tromsø can be unpredictable, with challenging road conditions and frequent cloud cover. These are the key reasons to join a tour with experienced guides who are familiar with the region and skilled at interpreting weather forecasts. This is not a typical sightseeing tour; instead, it’s a dynamic chase to find clear skies, stars, and hopefully the Northern Lights. Once we reach a location with stable and clear skies, we’ll set up a cozy bonfire surrounded by seating. You’ll be served warm soup and hot chocolate as you relax under the night sky. While you enjoy the magical display, our professional photographers will capture the moment. After the tour, you’ll receive free low-resolution photos—perfect for sharing on social media.
