Northern Lights Hunt – PRIVATE TOUR

About this experience

This tour will take you on a hunt for the Northern Lights. We will find the best place to spot the Northern Lights and experience the magic being under the Aurora Borealis.
In Greco-Roman mythology, Aurora is the personification of the dawn, and the sister of the sun and moon. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that every day Aurora raced across the sky in her chariot, alerting her brother and sister to the breaking of a new day. Watching the Northern Lights stretch across the sky, it’s easy to imagine how this story took form.
