Truly a beauty - Thanks to a passionate Italian guide beyond measure, we tasted and shared the taste of the Northern Lights, its poetry, its mystery and its vitality. We then learned to take beautiful night photos, so the guide really deserves a 10 and praise!

Amazing northern lights and great choice of locations - It was an absolutely stunning tour! We were lucky to have clear skies and very high activity, so we didn't have to go far. Tomas chose great locations for photography (one with a mountain scenery, and one with a bridge), and also explained the background of northern lights and how to take pictures.

Northern Lights Chase - This is an experience of a lifetime. The fee is all worth and we were able to see northern lights throughout the night. We were satisfied with the length of time of the whole trip. The atmosphere is perfect for viewing/photography and it was on a vast frozen valley near a river. We were a bus full and the whole area where we stopped has a large area where everyone can roam around freely. Two thumbs up for the staff they were so helpful and taught us a few tricks to photograph aurora borealis and they took excellent photo of us. This trip is best for chasing the northern lights and we highly recommend.

Awesome awesome - The guides took all the efforts to locate a suitable place to view the northern lights since it was cloudy and raining in Tromso.. they even helped me in taking photos of aurora from my mobile which i found it to be a very thoughtful gesture of the guide as because of this help I CLD click many good pics of the NL.

Exceptional - The woman who did the tour with us was very nice & you could tell that she knows very well. We have seen great Northern Lights, but that depends on the weather. The woman initially told us that she would drive with us until a good spot came (partly as far as Finland), that was not necessary for us but I found that very positive. They definitely make sure you get something for your money.

A wonderful experience for us on the night - I know seeing the lights is very much a matter of luck and we were so lucky. We have done two tours in the past and this was specrtacular. Tomas was our guide and he was very helpful in taking photos, unfortunately for us our phones are quite old and not brilliant but we mostly just focused on enjoying the experience, which was fantastic, the whiole sky was alive with lights and we saw dancing lights for the first time. Were given hot chocolate and biscuits and a fire was set up. It was -23 at one point so definitely the coldest part of our holiday so go well prepared. The only downside was we thought we had booked a coach so if it gets too cold we could get inside nd warm up but on arrival were told there were not enough people so it was going to be a minibus. As that means many hours without any toilet facilities I asked if i coud quickly use the toilet before we set off. The receptionist told me no, I had to go across to the bus station across the road. I did this but got there to find you have to pay and I did not have any money or a card with me so rushed back to avoid delaying the tour. Luckily Tomas then asked if anyone wanted to use the toilet and several hands went up. He then was happy for us to use the office toilet. I feel the receptionist could have been a lot more helpful. Hence 4 stars not 5.

Two negatives and one positive - Unfortunately I was dissatisfied for two reasons: 1. The tour is declared for small groups and instead I found myself on a big bus full; 2. The photographer who was supposed to assist us in setting up the camera said that he only knew Sony and that he didn’t know Canon at all, so in the end I only took pictures from my mobile phone and nothing with my Canon EOS. On the other hand, a positive aspect: the guide was really very good at explaining the phenomenon in full English. She was also very careful to follow indexes and the probability of the appearance of the aurora avoiding us to get cold unnecessarily, letting us in and out of the bus only if there were chances to see the aurora that we then managed to see and photograph.

disappointed amateur photographer - if your intention is as a amateur photographer to do this tour so u can get your own photos. this is not for you company is only interested in taking their own photos so they can make more money. was a very disappointing experience. Big tour bus so restricted in places they can go.
