It was very cold and...

Tanya_M, Jan 2025
It was very cold and windy on top of the mountain, but we did see the lights. Our guide was helpful and the traditional cinnamon roll and hot chocolate were delicious.

Tour description is incorrect stating dinner included at restaurant!

Do not book this tour with this company. The full description included a meal which fits with the higher price we paid of 171.00. When we arrived up top, we were told that was impossible since they have no kitchen after September! I’ve requested a refund and have not heard back from the tour operator yet. Very disappointed.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi Teresa, I think you have misunderstood the product as there is no meal included, but coffee & vaffels are included. I am are sorry about the bad experience you had. Unfortuntately we did not recieved your claim for refund. Please send again and we will arrange with refund. Will appriciate if you remove this review. Best regards, Team Polar Excursions

Not worth the price!

Dinner was a small piece of semi cooked fish. That was it. We had to buy our own waters to drink. NOT worth the price. Will be complaining loudly.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hi, We are very sorry you did not like the tour. In the description of the tour it´s very clear that the meal is a appetizer, a taste and not a full dinner. It´s also in the description that drinks not follow. Kind regards, Polar Excursions

Horrific experience

Shawn_B, Dec 2022
We waited at the church and no one ever showed to pick us up. We sent text on what’s app and no one responded. Terrible experience. I will never recommend this

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hi, we are sorry this tour was cancelled due to strong winds at the cable car. We sent messages to all travellers when we got the cancellation. Also, the meeting point is in front of the church, but you asked us on a message to pick you up at the hotel, i am sorry, but that we cannot do. Kind regards, Polar Excursions

Only disappointment was there was no northern lights, but it wasn’t the fault of the company . The guide was brilliant
