General information
This tour is operated by Arctic Guide Service
Our Northern Lights tours are conducted as a chase, as our experience shows that this gives you the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights.
Our guides will use their knowledge, the latest weather forecasts, and work as a team with our drivers, who know the road conditions very well, to calculate the best route for the night. Apart from deciding where to go, one of the main jobs of our guides is to take photos of you, preferably with the Aurora in the background when it is visible in the sky. Our guides have extensive experience capturing the Northern Lights on camera and can show you the right camera settings, give helpful tips, and tell you all about the Northern Lights.
