Wow, an amazing adventure! - Wow!!!! What an adventure. The bus picked us up outside our hotel, they’d even put a booster seat in for our little boy. The bus was super clean, modern and cosy. We had a brief introduction and explanation of where we were headed and then a bit of background into our guide and the driver. The northern light show that followed was breathtaking. We got loads of our own pictures and professional ones done by our guide. We sat round a campfire and ate delicious soup, drank hot tea/juice and at cookies under the aurora and it was magical. We were given an email with clothing instructions and then given a thermal suit when we got out there so we were super warm and protected by the elements. Our guide was so knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. His love of the aurora and all things science was super cool and our little boy really enjoyed learning about the lights. We were super lucky with the lights, we left at around 5:30 and returned back at around midnight. Can’t recommend these guys enough. Amazing experience, worth every penny, trip of a lifetime.

Super from A to Z - The tour was an absolute highlight! Through the guides there was a very familiar and funny/beautiful atmosphere in the group! The information we received during the outbound journey was great and really exciting! Although it was almost impossible to see the Northern Lights due to the weather, we were given a beautiful view of the natural spectacle! The soup was also very delicious and warmed from the inside! Fully recommended!! If a Northern Lights tour, it's with Blue Puffin!! Anytime very happy again!!

Magical experience! - What a fantastic experience! They were passionate about finding the best conditions to see the lights and used everything in their hands to make it possible. Weather was terrible everywhere and they took us to the one spot with clear skies. Bus is very comfortable, the soup is great and they so nice providing great info about Tromso, the lights and so many other things. The whole family loved it!

We will never forget this amazing night - We had an unforgettable night. Our driver and guide knew just where to go to see the lights. As soon as we got out of the mini bus, the lights started showing up. Our guide took amazing photos of us with the lights. We had a nice campfire with yummy homemade soup, as our guide educated us on the lights. As the clear sky began to fill with clouds, it was decided to pack up and move to another location. Success again. The lights showed up and mesmerized us once again. I will never forget this experience and Blue Puffin. This company is an excellent choice, and I highly recommend them. I know there are lots of companies out there that offer the same thing, but Blue Puffin really cares and knows what they are doing.

A most incredible night with the most incredible people - We had an incredible night. Our driver and guide were wonderful and friendly. We were impressed by our guides' knowledge of the Northern Lights and knowing exactly where to go to see them. He is also an amazing photographer and was able to perfectly capture the moment. We truly had a VIP experience that we will never forget. This company is the real deal and I highly recommend them. Also, a big thank you to Monica, the owner, for the delicious homemade soup and for making our trip happen. We will forever be grateful for this once in a lifetime experience. Thank you all so much and may God bless.

The tour was absolutely amazing — our guides were super friendly, helpful, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we got to see the Northern Lights.

Amazing Experience! - On the night of our tour weather conditions in Tromso were very unfavorable for Northern Lights viewing. However, Linda, our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide took us to the perfect spot with a gap in the clouds and we experienced an amazing display of the aurora borealis! Linda was persistent, patient and optimistic - checking out a number of potential viewing locations before finding the right spot and ensuring that we quickly left the van and did not miss the start of the display. The awesome light show, campfire, hot drinks and snacks made for an incredible night!

The perfect Northern Lights experience for us - We had an really enthousiastic and excellent guide that took care of the group in every aspect. They found the perfect spot where we have been able to see the Northern Lights without any "light interference". A great experience that we'll also remember thanks to the great shots they gave us.

A great and unforgettable tour - It was a very great and unforgettable tour for us. The guide was super accommodating and took sufficient time for each participant. We saw the Northern Lights in two different places and I proposed to my friend among the Northern Lights. The food around the campfire is magical in the wilderness, each participant tells something about themselves so that the group grows together in a short time. It should also be emphasized that it is not a ready meal, but everything homemade. Late in the day they continued to search for Northern Lights, we were all very happy that we were even driven to our hotel as it was already so late, more service really can't be done. Thank you for the unforgettable experience. We'll never forget the night. Greetings from the Moxys:-) Shiva and Tim
