Urban experiences meet raw Arctic nature
Northern Lights Visit - Incl. Transport
1920 NOK
per person
Journey into the darkness, away from any light pollution and get the chance to witness the mystical northern lights.
General information
This tour is conducted by Norwegian Travel/Lyngsfjord Adventure.
After a 90-minute bus drive from Tromsø city center, you will arrive in an untouched wilderness surrounded by darkness as the camp is far removed from the bright city lights and situated in a drier climate zone with clear inland mountain weather. This dry climate generates many cloud-free night skies in winter (as well as during summer).
Upon arrival, we will provide you with warm winter clothing and give a presentation about the Aurora Borealis and how to photograph it. Depending on the weather conditions, we will take you to different locations around the camp (by foot) from where the northern lights can be observed. When it is time to warm up, we will serve a hot meal inside around the open fire in a reindeer herder’s tent.
After relaxing and warming up, it is time to board the bus again to be driven back to the city center of Tromsø.

- Please note that the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and we cannot guarantee if / when and in what strength they will show on the evening of your tour.
