Your best chance to see the northern lights in Alta is to be out under the night sky as often as you can. This tour takes you outdoors for a cozy “slow adventure” – a perfect way to spend an evening in good company on a leisurely local northern lights hunt. Your ride will take you through the forest and along the Alta River until you arrive at a wilderness shelter and take a break. A late, light dinner will be served around a fire, protected from the weather by the shelter’s half-wall. Along with conversation and local stories, if the conditions are right you might even have a chance to take a few pictures of the aurora in the sky!

Explore breathtaking fjord landscapes and the wildlife of the Arctic while searching for the world’s largest mammal: the whale. In November to January, the orcas, humpback whales and other whales gather in the fjords close to Alta for their big herring-feast. These gentle giants enjoy their "food platter", and to witness this remarkable sight will give you memories for life. And this experience does not end here. The area is also home to the Arctic dolphins, the majestic sea eagle, with a wingspan up to 2.5 metres and other seabirds - species. We use different boats according to the size of the group and the weather conditions, but our local guide will always accompany our group. Under the boat transfer to the hot-spot and in periods when the whales are diving, you can stay inside in the warm cabin and enjoy hot chocolate and snacks. Embark with us on an unforgettable winter adventure in the Norwegian fjords and bring back home memories for a lifetime.

Leave the city lights behind and step into the quiet Arctic darkness. The Northern Lights Bus offers a calm, comfortable chase for the aurora — with plenty of space on board and no crowded vehicles. Settle in, stay warm, and let the night unfold. Our local drivers follow the weather, the clouds, and a touch of Arctic intuition to find the best viewing spots. There is no fixed route — only the freedom to go where the sky is clearest. For centuries, the Northern Lights have been wrapped in mystery. The Sámi once believed the lights were spirits dancing across the sky, powerful and alive, to be met with respect and silence. When the aurora appears, it’s easy to understand why. We do everything we can to find the dancing green lady, but she follows her own rules. Some nights she fills the sky, other nights she hides. Either way, the journey through silent landscapes, crisp air, and ancient stories is an experience in itself. Tours with six guests or fewer are conducted by car.
