Ollie and Ryan Made a Cloudy Night Unforgettable - Ollie and Ryan were fantastic guides. Even though the lights were weak and mostly hidden by clouds, they made the evening fun and memorable. We had campfire hot dogs and great chats with the group. They ended the night with some cool light painting photos. It was our most enjoyable night despite the low aurora activity.

10000/10 Would always do again - My friends and I went on 2 tours with Northbound and lemme tell you what a blast we had. Oli & Ryan are so nice and knowledgeable that I wouldn't want to go hunting with any other tour. They're actually attentive to the guests on the tour and help ensure that the guests get the photos that they want. We requested some funky poses (the totem pole and the "best catch of the day" photo) and they were nothing but enthusiastic about helping us achieve the photo! I also loved the fact that the tour was a smaller group as the vibes were more homey, but we also big enough that we had our own personal space. We originally had 3 tours w/ Northbound, our 1st was cancelled due to weather and the aurora predictions on our 3rd tour was looking bleak as well, but thank goodness we decided to go as we saw purple lights that night!! On the last night, they let us stay out longer as the lights started to boom as we were about to leave. Oli & Ryan truly do the most and their best in order to make your experience great and their business' success shows that! I could not recommend them more than enough to you so hurry up and book with them!!! Thank you so much to Northbound for contributing to the success of our trip and hopefully we see you again!

Best guides for your Northern Lights Adventure - Highly, highly recommend choosing Northbound for your Northern Lights adventure! Oli and Ryan were the best guides and both extremely knowledgeable about the weather patterns. Plus, they truly just love chasing the lights, and make the experience so seamless and fun. They provide insulated suits, hotdogs, a bonfire, and overall a great time while waiting for the lights. We had to drive 2.5 hours and crossed the Finnish border, but arrived at a picturesque lake which was an amazing location for the show. The clouds took a very long time to clear, and after about 3 hours of waiting and losing hope, the sky graced us with a beautiful show that was well worth the wait. Truly can't recommend these guys enough! Thanks Oli and Ryan!

Fantastic guides, great photography - highly recommend! - Oli and Ryan were fantastic guides! Very knowledgeable and passionate about Northern Lights and photography - exactly what I was looking for. Long time northern lights guides in Tromso, they established their own company in 2024 and wanted their tours to feel like a bunch of friends having a good time by a fire. That is exactly how it felt! They have a fantastic attitude and such good vibes, they genuinely want you to have a good time and aren't watching the clock but will stick around if there's light activity. I ended up going on their tour 2 consecutive nights as the 1st time the weather wasn't great (although we did get to see the lights). The 2nd time we got treated to a great light show shortly past midnight. The icing on the cake are the professional photos and time lapse video they provide the next day at no extra cost. Thank you for a great expereince!

Amazing night! - We had the most amazing experience with Northbound, I highly recommend them to anyone interested in a northern lights tour. Oli and Ryan are both passionate and knowledgeable about the area and the northern lights and it shines through in how they run their company. Weather conditions were not ideal the evening of our tour, but as it was our only opportunity to try an experience the lights Oli and Ryan worked diligently to give us the best experience possible. We were able to experience the magic of the lights and have the stellar photos to prove it! However what I found most impressive were Oli and Ryan's commitment to our safety and comfort during the tour. We traveled with our 2 sons and it was a lovely experience for us all. The campfire, sausages and the best hot chocolate just rounded out an adventure filled with laughs as we found the best viewing spots. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again and will recommend them to anyone visiting Tromso!

Incredible Northern Lights Experience with Oli! - I had an amazing time on the northern lights tour with Oli! From the moment we met, he was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and full of knowledge about the lights, the region, and the science behind the phenomenon. We started in Tromsø, Norway, and ended up crossing into Finland in search of the best skies and it was absolutely worth it. Oli was determined to find the perfect spot, and thanks to his expertise, we witness an unforgettable display of the north lights. He also made sure we were warm, comfortable, and had everything we needed throughout the night. You can really tell he’s passionate about what he does, and that made the whole experience even more special. If you’re in Tromsø and want the best chance at seeing the northern lights, go with Oli. You won’t regret it!

Spectacular adventure! - We do not know where to begin to express our gratitude to Oli & Ryan for our amazing Northern Lights adventure! It will go down as a highlight on my ‘best of life’ reel. Friendly, fun, knowledgeable. They were generous with their knowledge and thoughtful in ensuring our comfort and enjoyment. From the proactive communication to the well-provisioned vehicle and bonfire. We were giddy to see the magnificent lights show their beauty, but honestly, even if we hadn’t seen the lights (aka Oli-nomenon) on “Ryan’s Island”, we would had the time of our lives regardless. The adventure, scenery, and experience is worthwhile in and of itself, with the lights making an early and strong showing! We had such a GOUDA tour. We weren’t sure if it would BRIE a good night for “spaceweather”, but we could not have had a FETA time for our private beach bonfire with Mother Nature showing off! 🧀 😂 Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🙏 🇳🇴♥️

Magical Lights, Best Tour Guides!!! - Seeing the Northern Lights has been on my bucket list for years, and I made the best decision ever selecting Northbound AS. Oli and Ryan were the most amazing hosts- they were dedicated to finding us lights, and they delivered! Oli did a wonderful job keeping us all engaged and communicating the plan for the evening, and Ryan did an amazing job capturing it all via time lapse video and photos. Oh, and the small group size was perfect, and the ride super comfortable. You will make the best decision ever booking with them. Thank you so much for the memories!!

Amazing 👏 - Wow!! The weather was very kind and we got a show that I was never expecting... it was spectacular. That said, the weather is unpredictable, but what was also great was the team that runs this tour company. Can't fault them, communication is great, they are both friendly and personable. I would 100% recommend them to anyone. Thank you guys.
