Chase the Northern Lights from Tromso on an evening bus tour with expert guides and personalized photography support.
Getting started
Begin your night at the designated meeting point in Tromsø, where your guides will welcome you, provide a quick introduction, and help you suit up for the evening. After boarding your heated vehicle, the team will choose the best direction based on updated weather and solar forecasts.
What to expect
Expect a genuine aurora hunt: if clouds appear, your guides follow clearer skies, often driving deep into the region or toward Finland. Throughout the journey, they share aurora facts, local context, and photography support. Once the lights appear, you’ll have time for photos, portraits, and a warm drink with cookies. The night ends with a comfortable return to Tromsø.
