Amazing experience with fantastic guide - This was a really amazing experience! Our guide Jens was friendly and knowledgeable and made sure we stopped every time there was a chance of seeing the Northern Lights. He even paused when it seemed like they were going to get brighter and took pictures for us as well. It was our first time on a snowmobile but Jens made it a great experience, the safety briefing was thorough and the gear keeps you really warm. 10/10 would recommend, thank you Jens!

Get warm clothes,... - Get warm clothes, particularly gloves, that allow you to take pictures. Reason is that Northern Lights are better seen through camera, so you will use them. Also, note that you must have a drivers license to operate a snowmobile, so don't forget it.

A unique experience 🤩 - For anyone who would like to go snowmobiling for aurora borealis hunting, we were totally thrilled. Unfortunately, we did not see any aurora borealis as it snowed extremely. The guides were also great 👍

Great Snowmobile experience. - We did the late night excursion in the hope of seeing the Northern Lights. Unfortunately it was overcast, so we only saw a glimmer. However that didn't detract from the trip which was great fun. The guides were friendly and helpful, and we had a great time.
