Spectacular experience

Published on Jan, 2025

Armann was a fantastic guide! Upbeat and hilarious the entire time. I had a great group of people with me on the tour. It was a rather cold night, but a spectacular night for the northern lights. Armann even pointed out the constellations, and shared stories. Armann took photos, and also helped the group with their cameras/ phones. I highly recommend this tour!

A 10 star night of nature's northern lights

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide took us to a nearby rural area and nature gave us an amazing experience. Although the predictors said it might be a good night, nature gave us a 10 star show. With our guide's tips we got pictures of every form of aurora. As we were driving back into town we saw the sky light up, he found another dark area and we stopped to see a corona . A great, but cold, 2 hours.

Amazing night

Published on Jan, 2025

Set off into the cold dark night with Arman, sorry if spelt wrong. Straight away you got the feeling was going to be a good night. Funny guy, great personality. Informative and interesting. Drove us out of town to a dark cold spot. How he finds the rds in all the snow is amazing in itself. Packed up to see lights, which just got better and better as the time passed. Was well worth the staying out late in the freezing night. Made my birthday a memorable one as the lights put on a show even visible with the naked eye. Really do recommend this company and would defo use them again in future. He was right up our street with his level of sarcasm. Loved it. Wow amazing

Showed us Northern light on a closed holiday. Thank you!

Published on Jan, 2025

A great trip just a few minutes away from hour hotel to see the Northern light. The guide is very experienced, very attentive and ensured that we had a great experience. The best thing is that the office was closed, however, the company changed the plan as the forecast for Northern light was good. Thank you for your flexibility!

Fantastic guide and fantastic lights

Published on Jan, 2025

The guide rocked up in the largest 4x4 mini bus ever. The forecast was heavy cloud but our guide found a clear patch of sky and we saw some amazing Northern Lights. This tour is almost 100% guaranteed to find them. If they are there they will find them.
