General information

This tour is conducted by Arctic Guide Service. Each minibus or big bus has one professional driver and one authorized guide on board. This crew is on one specific mission: to take you wherever the chances to admire the magnificent Aurora are the best at that precise moment.

You will be accompanied by our best Northern Lights guide, a certified driver and a warm comfortable bus. Our northern lights tours are conducted as a chase, according to our experience that gives you the best chances of seeing the northern lights.
Our guides will use their knowledge, the latest weather forecast update, and cooperate with the driver who know road conditions very well to calculate the best route for the night.

Apart from deciding where to go, one of the main job of our guides it so take photos of you, and preferably with the Aurora in the background. So if you do not have a camera you will still take some professional photos home.
