Overview

Come with us for your small-group Aurora hunt for an ethical experience chasing the Aurora Borealis. Leave the light pollution in Tromsø behind and travel into the Arctic wilderness. Our guide uses forecasts and local knowledge to decide on the best place to chase the Northern Lights. When we find the best spot we will dress in warm thermal suits and boots, make a cosy campfire, and enjoy a homemade meal. During your Aurora Hunt activity our guide will take photos of you, which are for free in web-sized resolution after the tour. We'll collect data for our citizen science project. You'll follow our scientific method to collect data that will be used to protect our precious tundra.

Relax by the fire with hot chocolate before returning back to Tromsø island to your hotel. Though there is never a guarantee of seeing this phenomenon, our Aurora Hunters will do their best, every night of the season. Increase your chances to see the Northern Lights by joining on multiple evenings.
