Northern Lights Big Bus Chase in Tromso
★ 4.6 · 101 reviewsBy Arctic Explorers Norway AS
Experience the magic of the northern lights in Tromsø, one of the best places on Earth for viewing the aurora borealis. Situated in the Arctic Circle, Tromsø enjoys some of the highest levels of aurora activity. On this 7-10 hour guided tour with Arctic Explorers, you’ll chase the northern lights through the breathtaking landscapes of Troms county, where snow-capped mountains and fjords set the stage for this natural wonder.
Meeting next to Scandic Ishavshotel in Tromsø, your guide will provide all necessary equipment, including warm thermal suits and winter shoes, before heading out into the Arctic night. As you drive through scenic routes, the guide will monitor aurora forecasts and select the best spots for viewing and photographing the swirling lights.
Whether it's your first or hundredth time witnessing the northern lights, the sight of the green, blue, and purple lights dancing across the sky is nothing short of breathtaking. After spending hours marveling at this spectacle, the group will return to the starting point in Tromsø, with stunning photos to remember this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
