On the day of the tour we will pick you up in front of Scandic Ishavshotel. We prefer to gather the whole group in one meeting point, then we have more time for chasing Aurora. Sometimes the lights can appear early, so there is no time to loose. At the beginning our guide will do an introduction about weather conditions, possibilities to see the lights and selected locations. We also have contact with other trusted guides to increase our chances.
If there's an Aurora waiting for us somewhere, we'll find her! Hovewer you need to also understand that this is natural phenomena, caused by solar wind. We cannot make for you artificial Northern Lights. We will do our best to find clear skies for our travellers.
Once we find the right place under the clear skies, we will set up a camp for the evening. We will equip you with thermal suits. If you decide to bring your own camera, we are happy to help you with correct setting and give you a tripod. However you can count on our professional photos. When the Aurora appears in the sky, we will take as many photos as you wish.
Sitting by the campfire is the perfect time to eat warm soup and drink hot chocolate. We have for you local "made in Tromso" soup, which is tailored for Arctic expeditions. You have to try it, once you are here. We will tell you our stories about northern lights and arctic nature to make this evening even more special. This is green adventure, so we also doing our best to protect environment.
The next days wait for our e-mail with photos and you can share your unforgettable moments with family and friends.
