Aurora hunt from Tromsø

Embark on an unforgettable and ethical Aurora hunt under the mesmerising polar night sky!

Tromsø, free from light pollution and nestled in the Arctic wilderness, offers the prime location for viewing the Northern Lights. Your Aurora guides will determine the optimal location for your experience, sometimes venturing as far as the Finnish border.

Upon reaching the ideal spot, you'll be equipped with warm thermal suits and boots to ensure comfort in the Arctic conditions. A homemade meal will be served around a cosy campfire. You will also receive guidance on how to use your camera to capture the spectacular Aurora, with the guides taking complimentary photos of you against this natural wonder.

This experience not only allows you to witness the magic of the Northern Lights but also contributes to protecting the local environment. The team is committed to conservation, regenerative travel, and the safeguarding of Arctic nature. During your time in the wilderness, scientific methods are employed to collect valuable data for citizen science projects. This data is then uploaded to research partners' databases, contributing to environmental studies and guiding responsible tourism initiatives involving local professionals.

The adventure concludes with a relaxing hot chocolate by the campfire before returning to Tromsø island at a drop-off location of your choice.
