You’ll see it if you’re lucky - Well, seeing at night northern light it’s rare and luck even if the weather is good all the conditions are good sometime. You just can’t see it but luckily we saw it. It was just outside of the city. It was in a big, but it was all right. it’s one lifetime opportunity.

Lucky northern lights hunters - We had a nice guide who explained about the northern lights and how to spot them. If we didn't have an expert guide we would have definitely missed them. We were fortunate enough to see the lights twice on this tour. The hot chocolate was a nice touch especially as a way to warm up after standing in the cold

You tend to stay too long... - There is too much tendency to stay on the coast instead of also moving inland. Too much time wasted in the initial stages of loading people/explanation (the latter interesting but carried to manage in another way). Fortunately we were able to appreciate it, even if with the sky a bit 'overcast and away.

Shocked and very unhappy customer. - Was sent a text on the day 4:30pm ish to inform us they might have to cancel as the weather was pretty bad. Would confirm either way at 6:30pm. Was told at 6.30 it was cancelled and that a full refund would be arranged, no re-scheduling. Was very upset as this was the main reason for the trip. Was speaking to people in the hotel the following morning and was told that they had gone out the night before (along with many other groups) and actually saw the northern lights. And to rub it in they showed us their photos on their phone. As you can imagine it didn't leave us very happy. Doesn't encourage you to pass on favourable comments?
