My friends and I really enjoyed this tour. Unfortunately we did not see the northern lights but everything else was beautiful ( the stars and surroundings).
My bf and I were a bit disappointed though cause our snowmobile stopped working halfway through the tour so me and my other friend gad to ride with the tour guide. While my by rode with our other friend.

Une sortie nocturne en motoneige tout simplement incroyable. Des paysages magnifiques, la chance de voir les aurores boréales et un arrêt pour faire griller des saucisses au milieu de nul part. Une expérience inoubliable.

Tolle Tour, nette Scouts, leider keine Polarlichter gesehen. Die Geschwindigkeit hätte gern noch etwas höher sein können.
