Overview

Come with us for your small-group Aurora hunt for an ethical experience chasing the Aurora Borealis. Leave the light pollution in Tromsø behind and travel into the Arctic wilderness. Our guides use forecasts and local knowledge to decide on the best place to chase the Northern Lights. When we find the best spot, we will dress in warm thermal suits and boots, make a cosy campfire, and enjoy a homemade meal. During the tour, your guide will take photos of you, which will be available for free in web-sized resolution after the tour.

During our time together in the wilderness, we will collect data for a citizen science project and help protect the Arctic nature through responsible tourism.

Relax by the fire with hot chocolate before returning to Tromsø island to your hotel. Though there is never a guarantee of seeing this phenomenon, our Aurora Hunters will do their best every night of the season. Increase your chances of seeing the Northern Lights by joining on multiple evenings.
