Tromso: Northern Lights Minibus Tour

6 hours

Easy

Tromsø is one of the best places in Norway (and the world!) to see the Northern Lights. Join our Aurora Minibus tour from Tromso and chase the Aurora Borealis in a small group.

In Tromso, every evening from September to April offers a chance to see the Northern Lights.  In this Northern Lights minibus tour from Tromsø, we have experienced and dedicated guides and local experienced drivers. All to put your safety on our highest priority in the Arctic conditions: together, they will use their local knowledge and check the weather forecast to find the best spots to see the Northern Lights. Our guides will communicate to see how conditions are evolving and decide which direction we should take during the chase. Being able to move around easily by minibus enhances our chances of seeing the Aurora Borealis. Each minibus has a capacity for up to 14 guests only.


Chasing the Northern Lights is also about being patient! While you wait for Lady Aurora to appear, your Northern Lights guide will entertain you with stories about this impressive natural phenomenon and life in the Arctic. Weather permitting, they will make a bonfire to keep you warm (thermal suits are also provided). Hot drinks, a light hot meal (simple expedition food), and local snack will be served.


When possible, we take you to private camps (we have agreements with local landowners), so we have unique spots to observe the Aurora Borealis. A shelter and toilets are available in these camps.


Our guide will take winter and/or Northern Lights portraits of you and general scenery pictures so you have a souvenir of this amazing Arctic experience. Wondering how to take photos of Northern Lights with your own camera? Just ask your guide and they will help you with the settings and lend you a tripod. Good luck with your Northern Lights trip! Pictures, ideal for Social Media channels, are included in your ticket. High-resolution versions are for sale shortly after the tour.


You will be back at Radisson Blu Hotel by 2am at the latest.


We offer youth rates. Owing to comfort and safety, children under 10 and people with disabilities are unable to join this tour.
