Hunting the light

Overview

Price; 1800 NOK pr.person
If you want to experience the Northern Lights in Tromsø, Northern Norway, look no further. My name is Dan, and I'm a local native with Saami blood running through my veins :)
Let me take you on a tour you`ll never forget, with the best service and comfort available. I consult with my colleague guides, use local knowledge and different weather forecasts before and during the trip to maximize the chances of finding the clearest skies possible. All this to bring you closer to the Aurora Borealis :)

You will get a warm suit and overboots to wear on the tour to keep you warm and snug, and I'll provide you with hot chocolate/tea/ homemade vegetable soup and carrot cake, snacks and a warm bonfire while we wait for the lights (I`ll teach you how to make and start a bonfire if you like) :)
I`m a professional photographer, so I will also teach you how to take those perfect Northern Lights pictures, and all the pictures I take of the lights (and you under the lights) you will get in hi-res after the tour, for free of course! :)

I can promise you this: I`ll do my best to give you the experience you have come here for; to see the Northern Lights dancing on the starry skies.
