We did the tour with a group of 4 friends. We really enjoyed the tour from start to finish. Unfortunately we didn't see any auroras but we still had an incredible experience. We really enjoyed the snowmobiling with the connected fire and the snacks and drinks on offer. We would also like to thank our guide Paul once again. He did a really good job and fulfilled our every wish. We also got on really well on a personal level, which made the trip even better. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone who is in the mood for adventure.

Chasing the northern lights

Jennie_F, Jan 2024
We got to see the northern lights and wild reindeer!! Our tour guide was awesome! We also got to have snacks and hot chocolate by a fire. The snowmobiles were a lot of fun

Great family activity with teens

Wow what an experience! Absolutely loved going through the forest and over fells to chase the northern lights. We got really lucky and was able to see them! Our guide was brilliant and really informative! Definitely recommend this activity and company.

Thanks for the great feedback!

Bad experience

chaitali_M, Dec 2022
Trip was canceled at the last moment. We were informed when we called they didn’t bother to inform us. Spoiled 1 day of trip because of this we didn’t get any other safari at the last moment. Another one is cancelled as well by same operator. Disappointed

Response from Host, Dec 2022

We have been suffering flu widely in our team and in this case there is not much to do but cancel the tour if the guide is not able to make it and in peak season there is no reserve any more.

Well worth it!

This was fabulous. There were 7 in the group. Such a personal experience. The two guides were such fun.

The tour says that lasts 5 hours only lasted 3, we could not see auroras I know that they do not ensure that they see and that I understand but they should comply with what says that the tour lasts, the guide very good guide and very good attitude, very good food but it is important to meet the conditions of what is being paid.

Serata molto divertente. Non abbiamo avuto la fortuna di vedere l’aurora ma abbiamo fatto un ulteriore percorso con la motoslitta. Da consigliare
