Aurora Hunt Tour with Citizen Science from Tromso - Professional Photos Included

Come with us for your Aurora hunt for an amazing and ethical experience underneath the Aurora Borealis. Leave the light pollution in Tromsø behind and travel into the Arctic wilderness. During this activity, our small team of Aurora guides check the forecasts & use 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 your Aurora Hunt activity you'll become a citizen scientist and collect data for our Tundra Restoration Project. You'll be shown how to use your camera, photograph the Aurora, and our guides will take photos of you, which are provided for free in web-sized resolution after the tour. Relax by the fire with hot chocolate before being returned back to Tromsø island to your hotel. Though there is never a guarantee of seeing this phenomenon, our experienced team of Aurora Hunters will do their best, every night of the season.

This may be the beginning of a dream come true. Look no further, or read on if you are unsure! As some of the most experienced guides, we analyse weather predictions prior to every tour, and have close contact with a network of guides for the highest chances to see the Northern Lights. Our comfortable vehicle with 4x4 drive is fully equipped with everything we may need in the arctic, allowing us to discover remote scenery, reaching the more calm and peaceful places. We pick you up at a central location in Tromsø, allowing us more time for finding, and seeing the Aurora earlier! With no two nights the same, our enthusiasm and dedication never fades. Upon reaching suitable skies, we will set up camp for the evening. Most of the time this is a shorter drive to the surrounding coastal islands of Tromsø, or if needed a longer drive into Finland.

Symphony - Arctic Breeze, teamining up with nature.

Experience our unique bus with extra large windows. This bus gives you the opportunity to see the Northern Lights on the way to our stops for this night. Some nights we have to drive to Finland (2 hours one way), and often it`s Northern Lights activity while we are driveing. Traffic and narrow roads without parking, can make it difficult to stop in time. Don't miss it. The beauty of the northern lights is truly striking. The expectations are naturally high from seeing many great photo illustrations. However, nature determines this phenomenon. It is all about playing on nature´s premises. And this is what we do.

Midnight excursion to Beautiful Hella 22:00

It is ten at night and there is still lots of daylight! We pick you up at Radisson Blu hotel, take you to our office, and give you navigation suits, life jackets, and mittens. Then we go onboard our RIB-boat and after only thirty minutes, you realize that you are far away from the city surrounded only by nature, mountains, fjords, and light, very special evening light only seen above the arctic circle! In our approach to beautiful Hella, we will navigate along the Ry tidal current. This current attracts fish, and fish attract birds, so we will see and hear lots of nature while docking. We will then walk five minutes to a small boat house where we will serve coffee/tea & muffins while enjoying beautiful views of fjords, mountains and birds. From here, we will observe the strength of the current we just navigated. All this from 11 to 12 at night! Finally, we start our short hike back to the boat, and our navigation back to Tromso. Please note that this is NOT sea rafting.

Electric Northern Lights Cruise

Set off on an adventure into the total darkness of the Arctic fjords and Polar nights. We depart Tromsø and set sail to the place where the best weather conditions for the night have been predicted. This can be towards the areas of Kvaløyvågen or Ramfjorden or along the southern part of Kvaløya. The crew will work together and keep their eyes out for clear skies or a gap in the clouds. While we wait for the northern lights to appear, you can stay warm and comfortable in our heated lounges. Throughout the evening our guides will share their knowledge and personal stories of the Northern Lights. From mythical stories from around the world to the scientific explanation of the Northern Lights. When we get lucky to spot the Northern Lights, we can put on our warm clothes and go outside to admire lady Aurora in the night sky. Some nights she shines bright in the sky and dances with different colours, while on other nights she's a bit shy and is only faintly visible or not visible at all.
