Great experience - We had a great time with Polar Adventures. The minibus was a great size as the tour felt intimate and not crowded. Our guides Hans Eric and Socrates were very friendly, knowledgable and organised and kept the tour running smoothly. Hot chocolate, cookies and toasting marshmallows by a fire were lovely touches to an already great night hunting the Aurora.

Northern Lights Chase - Enthusiastic guide who took us a far distance from Tromso, but we trusted her and were not disappointed. We were fortunate to experience a fantastic light display by staying put for sometime. On the way back we made a couple more worthwhile stops which did make a late night, but well worth it. Thank you Joanna.

Despite the... - Despite the not-so-perfect weather conditions, they managed to find two great spots where we were able to see a fantastic aurora. We were really impressed by their determination and experience. The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly, which made the tour even more enjoyable. The refreshments offered by the fire were excellent and created a cozy, memorable atmosphere.
