We're lucky light chasers. - We booked five nights to see the aurora in different situations. The first night in the chalet, comfortable environment, with hot drinks on offer. The aurora was intense that night and visible to the naked eye. The next night on the way back from the Arctic Circle, when the aurora appeared and the driver stopped at a camp, we watched the aurora on the frozen lake. On the third night an RV chase was arranged, with fruit plates and hot drinks. The fourth night back to the cabin of the first night, the light of the night was very light. The fifth night forecast index was not high either, and Liu drove south for more than an hour, very fortunate to encounter a beautiful eruption. They took our pictures and were willing to teach us how to take aurora on our phones. When the light ahead is not bright enough, they are willing to wait until 2am, return to see another burst and are willing to stop.

He goes above and beyond... - He goes above and beyond to fine the lights! We went during regular/ low activity night yet still he stopped almost 3 places and immediately took pur pictures! He is still working on making the experience even more better by building a cabin and stuff ! But you will be bored while waiting for the lights as thats what chasing Aurora need! Be patient!

Good lights/driver - The lights started out strong! We had a couple of hours with not much action. We were headed back to town and at that time the lights decided to appear.. the driver pulled over and got some nice pictures along the road. All n all great night.

Thank you for chasing the aurora! - On our last day in Alaska, the weather report didn’t predict a strong aurora, and the sky was cloudy. However, thanks to our incredible tour guide, Liu, who drove an hour south, we experienced a once-in-a-lifetime sight—an exceptionally strong aurora with breathtaking pink hues! I know not everyone gets the chance to see the aurora, and we feel incredibly lucky to have witnessed it on two out of our four nights. Thank you, Liu, for making this unforgettable experience possible!

Professional aurora chasing and photography - We went to open fields with clear sky far away from the city and had great experience. We stopped several times to get the best view of aurora. It was amazing to watch the aurora dancing. The guide is very professional and provides great photography service. Would recommend to friends!

Awesome Experience - An incredible leader who orchestrated the perfect evening under the aurora! The desserts were as magical as the dancing lights above. These unforgettable moments—whether through hospitality or celestial wonders—is truly inspiring. Thank you for such a breathtaking experience!

Other Tours were Better - We didn't really see the lights on this tour, just a bit of a faint glow. It was a cloudy night, so no fault of the tour guide. I do felt he tried really hard - relocating multiple times trying to find a place where we could see them better. However, I feel that communication was not good - it would have been nice to know what he was seeing on the forecast, where we were going next, etc. There was very little communication at all - even when we started driving back to the hotels for drop off, there was no announcement that we were done for the night. He also seemed very distracted as a driver which made me very nervous. Sitting in the front row of the van, i could tell that he was frequently looking at his phone and drifting into the other lane of traffic. We took a tour with a different company the night before, and the difference was quite noticeable with communication and professionalism.
