As we depart from Tromsø, settle into the comfort of our bus and enjoy the journey into the Arctic landscape. Our experienced guides will share information about the Northern Lights, including the science and stories surrounding this natural phenomenon.
We travel through snowy landscapes, past frozen lakes and mountains, while our guides use Aurora forecasts to find suitable locations away from the city lights.
Our guides are also photographers and will take Northern Lights photos when conditions allow. They can also give you tips on using your own camera or smartphone.
Hot drinks are served on board throughout the evening.
