Alex was very nice and knowledgeable guy! It was minus -17(real feel -22) so the bbq and fireplace in the tend and the wam juice was a nice touch while we waited. In the end the northern lights is a natural phenomenon so sometimes you get more lucky than others, we saw it but very minimally but still overall a great experience

Almost everything about the tour was enjoyable. It turned out to be a small group, 7 in total, 3 different nationalities/languages. Even though it was an English guided tour, the guide (Belgian) was able to speak to each group in their own language to make sure they understood. The only downside unfortunately, was that we failed to find the Northern Lights which was a pity. Maybe, the next trip!

We did see the lights but limited. It's a natural phenomenon after all but the sausages, and fireplace with the warm juice helped while we waited for the lights to make an appearance. Otherwise it would've been a long night at -20 degrees

It was a good idea to have a BBQ together with an evening out to see aurora. Even without seeing the lights, we get to sit by a warm fire and enjoy some food. Fortunately we had both. The lights was feint but showed up on the phone camera.
