Northern Lights Tour

About this experience

From autumn until spring, during clear and cold dark nights it’s possible to witness one of nature’s most incredible displays: The Northern Lights. You may be lucky enough to see them swirling and dancing across the sky, endlessly changing color, shape, and size.

The evening before we analyze the weather forecast and atmospheric conditions for your tour. On the tour, we will drive you the location where the weather forecast has indicated will be the best place that night to see auroras. It’s most often within a 1-1,5 hours radius from the capital.

Our guides are trained to find the best places possible to spot where the northern lights are, as well it gets quite exciting for the passengers to take part in the lights hunt!

The evening before we analyze the weather forecast and atmospheric conditions for your tour. On the tour, we will drive you the location where the weather forecast has indicated will be the best place that night to see auroras. It’s most often within a 1-1,5 hours radius from the capital. We will drive you somewhere quiet and where it’s dark, away from the city’s light pollution. That is great for your camera moments if you intend to photograph the auroras.
