Unforgettable Experience - We did the aurora hunter tour. It was magical. They took us to the middle of the forest to wait in some tents where we made a campfire and ate sausage, soup and marshmallow an experience. And after two hours they started showing up. The super cute guides explained how to take the pictures and even froze their hands to take us out themselves. It's inexplicable what you see in the sky. I recommend them.

Beautiful places and very well organized tours - We made 4 excursions already booked in Italy. Organized very well, Massimiliano , our organizer, advised us and accommodated in everything. The guides Hernan who accompanied us for 3 excursions and Gigi on the last day, two wonderful people. Always very customer conscious. We will advise the agency. Beautiful places.

Emotions between nature and people - Lovely and wonderful evening that will remain etched in our memory and in Vincent's photo-memory, accompanied by Irene, an Italian guide, who led us to an ideal place to witness the splendid spectacle of the Northern Lights.
In addition to the beauty of this phenomenon, it undoubtedly contributed to making the perfect evening, the scientific explanation and the historical-cultural account of the prepared and engaging guide, who together with Hernan, also literally filled our bodies with succulent sausages, marshmallows and a sweet cranberry juice.
Unforgettable experience!
Highly recommended excursion and guide!!

Particular and interesting - Yesterday 04/02 I attended the barbeque under the Northern Lights .. particular and fun experience, despite we did not spot anything because of the overcast sky, thanks to the guides David and the girl (I do not remember the name ..!). Both very nice and helpful. Recommended tour!

Just great!!!! - It was an indescribable experience! The tour was just great. The guides Rayan, Paul and Juan were great. Everyone was in a great mood. And afterwards we roasted sausages, corn and mashmellows over the fire. I can only recommend anyone to book this tour!!!! It's just amazing.

Amazing Aurora Experience - Great tour, Lena, Lore, Oscar, Vaggellis, Michal, Simona and Ricardo were all fantastic and accommodating to everyone. We had the best weather conditions of the week to view the aurora, totally amazing. Ricardo sent a link to all his professional photos the next day and you can see the attached results.

It was a wonderful... - It was a wonderful experience. Great guides that have a great knowledge and made it fun even though the Northern Lights did not come out for us- too cloudy.

It's not the light but the experience - It should have been 5 but there was no appearance of northern light during this trip. However Ricardo and Michal are excellent guides that made the trip worthwhile. Thanks.

The tour for the price is... - The tour for the price is not worth the cost we travelled for a short distance and disembarked next to a busy highway in a city bbq area. There was no light activity due to cloudy weather which I understand is not the company’s fault however there is lots of lights guaranteed tours that will refund you if you don’t see them or the possibility is low so your time is not wasted. There is many options to book a tour at short notice I would recommend waiting and checking the weather. That said The host’s were really pleasant and the tour operators great to deal with. the equipment they provided was great and the bbq a fun experience

You should think about it - Where other tour operators cancel the tour if the weather conditions do not succeed in a sighting of the aurora borealis, Nordic unique travels unfortunately goes through with the trip. Unfortunately, there is also no money back guarantee if you don't see aurora borealis, as with other providers.
So we sat in a Tippi for 1 hour and ate a reindeer sausage.
The guide was very friendly and endeavoured. You could have eaten another sausage and drunk blueberry juice.
In addition, the guide took pictures of us in front of the tipi.
He tried to get the best out of the tour.
Because it is already the end of the season we were only 8 people.
We booked the next tour for the hunt for Northern Lights through another provider.
