Night of a lifetime - Our night with Tor was amazing! We were so lucky to have such clear skies and active auroras all night. Tor took good care of our group, telling us about life in Northern Norway and the lights. We sat around a bonfire under the Northern lights with sausages and hot chocolate. 100% recommend this experience.

A spectacle by nature beyond expectations! - An unforgettable experience! 8 hours on the tour passed in a blink of an eye. We were incredibly lucky and Tor is a passionate guide with local heritage and exiting stories up his sleeve. I would recommend everyone who likes non-mainstream tourism and unique and intimate experience with nature. Thank you!

Highly recommend - We were a small group looking for a more intimate non commercial northern lights experience. With Espen we got this & way more. He was a great guide, we got to see the aurora in all her glory from an amazing setting. I can’t recommend this more, can’t wait to come back

Great option for Aurora viewing - Great tour! Started out with a comfortable new van to take us to a special shoreline private Sami location. The tour was accommodated by a great guide who explained everything and was really nice about general Norwegian topics as well. There were hot drinks, hot dogs, and soup. Also, the highlight of the night was a magnificent Aurora show. hospitality and a great and the guide had a camera and took a great photos of us in the Aurora. I highly recommend taking this tour if you want a private hospitality and a great Aurora viewing.

Brilliant host with an amazing Aurora Show 10/10 - 10/10 experience, the host was amazing and the show was brilliant. We definitely got our money’s worth, it was not the most expensive tour available so i believe the price was definitely fair. As for the length we decided it within our group (i personally would have loved to stay longer but it’ a democracy Espen is running!), the group was just the right size and it was great company so we enjoyed it that a lot. Overall Espen is a great host and I would definitely go with him again, He served us hot chocolate and sausage and he kept the fire going a truly great experience! He even provided us with boots and thermal socks and got mitts to spare just in case. It was overall a really really great experience.

An adventure of a lifetime - The Northern Lights was an adventure I have wanted to do with family for years. Espn made this experience possible from a cultural and magical aspect, going out of his way to educate us on all the elements that make this miracle happen. He is a true star chaser, caring for people first! We will never forget the Lady Aurora adventure due to him!

The best night! - 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone making their attempt to see the Northern Lights. The guides have their own location which is perfect for seeing the lights and a very personal, private experience compared to other drivers that are competing for the best spots. Espn was the absolute best & the made our experience so memorable.
