Amazing experience of the northern lights with The Artic Moments - We had the most magical experience with The Artic Moments and our guide Reidar. We were picked up in a clean, comfortable and importantly warm Mercedes people carrier. Reidar was very knowledgeable about the northern lights and the area we were visiting. He knew great locations for us to spot the lights and to keep away from the mass tourist buses that sat around lights on engines running. Reidar kept track of anticipated activity and explained everything in excellent English and German. We were taken to a quiet and isolated location where we were able to witness a phenomenal display which didn't need a camera to see. We had some light refreshments which were really welcome. One of the main benefits of being on a small and exclusive tour came as we were about to depart when we noticed increased activity, Reidar was happy to stay and watch with us for a long time. Words really don't do justice to the display we witnessed, it is really something you have to see for yourself. Reidar also offered us pictures he had taken during the evening. The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon so you can never tell how well they will appear, witnessing them with The Artic Moments gives a much better chance of an amazing experience.

An Unforgettable Northern Lights Experience with Reidar! - This was my first Northern Lights experience, and thanks to Reidar, it was absolutely magical! He is truly a five-star guide—so knowledgeable, calm, and composed. We drove nearly two hours to find the perfect dark sky, and the whole time Reidar kept us informed and relaxed. When we finally saw the Aurora, he explained the difference in colors and the science behind them. It was a fascinating lesson! He went above and beyond by preparing a cozy bonfire and serving delicious hot juice and food for everyone. This was such a lovely, personal touch. Reidar is genuinely helpful and made the long drive worth every minute. Highly, highly recommend booking with him!

Great evening with Reidar - Reidar was an amazing guide. He is very professional, well informed, and thoughtful. We cannot recommend him highly enough. His communication prior to the trip was brilliant, and despite not seeing the Northern Lights (they weren't showing up that night!) we had a wonderful time. We learnt so much about Tromso, and enjoyed meeting a lot of huskies! Thanks so much Reidar. Sue and Richard

Thank you Reidar - Reidar made our trip to Tromsø invaluable. We saw more than our share of incredible Northern Lights, on multiple nights and each time in amazing locations, all thanks to him. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He was also very dedicated to providing the best experience to his guests. Altogether, we couldn't recommend Reidar enough as a guide and would most definitely reach back to him, were we to ever visit this beautiful part of the world again.

Personalised experience of the northern lights - We travelled as two families with four small(ish) children. Reidar took it all in his stride. We all had so much fun! The whole evening was very well organised, and he also made sure we had every opportunity to input into his planning process. The campfire, hotdogs, smores and hot chocolate went down well. But the children in particular had so much fun with the sled. Then just as the kids were getting tired of playing in the snow, the Northern Lights came right on cue. (Great planning my friend!) If you are after an unforgettable time in Tromsø, you are in safe hands with Reidar. Thank you once again, and we wish you a wonderful Christmas.

Incredible tour with a kind host - Although we weren’t lucky enough to see any northern lights, we had a magical evening sitting by the fire overlooking a beautiful fjord earlier this year. Reidar was very kind, thoughtful, and an all around excellent host / conversation partner. Would recommend this tour regardless of if you can see the lights, we do not regret it! He is a great photographer and captured the moment beautifully.
