Top Levi How to Get Around

We don't wait for the Northern Lights – we go looking for them! Our Northern Lights Hunt has one goal: giving you the best possible chance to see the Aurora. Before every tour, we analyse weather forecasts, cloud cover and Aurora activity to find the best conditions. We travel by minivan with no fixed route or viewing spot. If Levi is cloudy, we drive towards clearer skies and adjust our route throughout the evening. We keep our groups small, with a maximum of 10 guests per guide. Even with multiple minivans, each group has its own dedicated guide for a personal experience. Last winter, our guide found the Northern Lights on every tour he guided. Nobody can control the Aurora or weather, but we do everything possible to find the best conditions. That's why we offer a Money Back Guarantee: if you don't see the Northern Lights or can't get photos during the tour, you get your money back. Your guide will also help you capture the Aurora with your phone or camera.
