      Benjamin was the Best!! He is very knowledgeable about the lights and made our experience one to remember! We were lucky enough to see the lights and we finished the evening sitting by a fire eating sausages and drinking hot cocoa!! A perfect night! Thank you so much Benjamin!!!

      Absolutely fantastic private northern lights tour

      Michal_P, Jan 2026
      Fabian was an excellent guide – friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about the aurora and local life, so the conversations during the drive were genuinely fun and engaging. The campfire stop was a real highlight, with a cozy atmosphere, great stories and plenty of time to enjoy the sky and take photos together. Overall, the experience felt very personal and well organized, and is easy to recommend to anyone looking for an intimate, small‑group northern lights outing.

      Legendary Night with Legendary Adventures

      Milind_D, Dec 2025
      This was one amazing experience and right from start, the CEO of Legendary adventures was keeping us updated. On the day of the tour, the weather was pathetic in tromso so Aspen, the CEO Messaged me proactively to begin 1 hour early. Our delight started there itself. But the real element was Benjamin, our driver and guide who arrived in a 7 seater Mercedes van right at our doorstep much earlier. We left and immediately Ben said - we need to drive inland towards Finland. Throughout the way he kept stopping, sensing and checking cloud and other apps. He explained to us why Kp index is not an element to track and everything else also needs to be looked at. Finally, near the fin border, we got a sight of a lifetime. Ben graciously made hot chocolate and a black current tea that I cannot forget. We were back by 2 am having started at 6 pm. This tour has utmost comfort, amazing tracking skills of Ben and once a lifetime experience.

      Nice experience in Tromso

      Fantastic private tour

      Nicola_P, Dec 2025
      Great experience with Ben. He clearly explained where we would be traveling to, was well prepared having researched weather patterns and spent a lot of time educating my family and I on all things Northern Lights. We got some great pictures and thoroughly enjoyed our tour! Highly recommend to anyone considering a private tour.

      Amazing

      Peter_K, Dec 2025
      Be patient, listen to your guide, there’s a lot of driving. Get yourself comfortable, chill out. If you are lucky, it will be worth it.

      Great Experience perfect guide

      Jackie_B, Dec 2025
      Tracking the Northern lights was fun, and our guide, who was exceptional, did his best. We did see them, although only saw their colour on camera, which is the norm. Really recommend this trip. Fire after seeing the lights in the woods with a hot sausage - great end to a v enjoyable trip. Can't say enough about Fabian, our guide. He was a top man, thanks Fabian for you company and insight, truely made the experience great. X

      The Driver Guide Was So Great!

      Denise_D, Nov 2025
      Our driver EIRIK really went out of his way to make our experience memorable, especially because it was my husband’s 40th birthday. We saw the most spectacular views of the Aurora Borealis. We will never forget this night thanks to him. Highly recommend him anytime. He will not disappoint. :)
