Take in the northern lights from an Aurora Camp on a guided tour. Meet the owners. Try a traditional Norwegian cake and enjoy a hot drink to stay warm. Get unforgettable photos of you with the aurora borealis. Move somewhere else to take in the lights if the weather takes a turn for the worse. The tour lasts between 5 to 7 hours.
Meet your guide at Bus Terminal Prostneset in Tromsø and climb aboard the comfortable and spacious bus. Relax and watch a Northern Lights film during the drive. Head to the camp with the best chances of clear skies based on the weather forecast. At the camp, enjoy a warm welcome from your local host.
Then, borrow a thermal suit to stay warm. Learn about the authentic Aurora Camp from your host. Discover the warm shelter and its bonfire or if the weather allows, sit outside on benches around the campfire. Savor a tea, coffee, or hot chocolate with lefse, a traditional sweet Norwegian snack.
Set up one of the tripods to take photos yourself and get your guide to snap pictures of you with the northern lights. If the weather changes, your guide will check whether it would be better to move location. If so, finish your hot drink and climb back on the bus to look for clear skies elsewhere.
