Description
Accompany your guide to the prime locations for witnessing the Northern Lights. Indulge in a traditional barbecue and stay cozy by the fire.
This tour takes you away from artificial lights to a peaceful, open spot on the edge of a vast, frozen lake. With a wide horizon and clear views, this location offers an excellent chance to observe the northern sky, where—if you’re lucky—the Aurora Borealis may begin to dance above. While the Aurora Borealis is a natural phenomenon, our experienced guide will select the best viewing spot based on that night’s conditions to maximize your chances. During the evening, your guide will also share fascinating facts about the Aurora Borealis—how it forms, when it appears, and the science and legends behind this incredible display. Whether the sky stays calm or bursts into color, the atmosphere remains magical. As you wait, enjoy the warmth of a cozy campfire and sip a hot drink. Surrounded by crisp Arctic air and peaceful silence, you’ll find a rare sense of calm that invites a deep connection to nature. This moment of calm and wonder, far from everyday life, makes the experience truly unforgettable. Many of our guests call it the highlight of their Arctic journey.
