      It was a little cloudy but we DID get to see some Northern Lights!! Our guide was great. He did a fantastic job considering Mother Nature wasn’t totally cooperative. It was fun driving out of Alta and seeing some of the houses and where people live. Great evening!!!

      No northern lights experienced

      Our Alta hunts for the northern lights our guide I would not recommend to any friends of ours as the guide did do what we were expecting

      Response from Host, Nov 2025

      Hi, and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. According to our observations and reports from that evening, there were strong Northern Lights visible on October 3rd, so it is surprising to us that this was not pointed out or fully experienced during your tour. This is something we take seriously, and we will follow up with the guide to understand what happened.

      Lots of clouds but still saw some lights

      First of all this tour is just a hunt to find the Northern Lights, as the title says. We basically drove around in the bus with the driver stopping at various locations and we all got off the bus and took our pictures. Note…since our bus was all cruise passengers and our time was limited we all opted to skip the church drive by and start the hunt immediately. It was a very cloudy night but our driver was still able to find some spots where we could see the lights and we got some decent pictures. We were happy over all with this tour.
