The guide/driver took the group to a few places. it is a bit cloudy at the beginning but much more clearer after that. The guide has prepared good photo shooting equipment that can monitor the aurora outside remotely with us waiting in the car instead of freezing out (so f...ing cold). The guide took some good photos for us and the aurora and airdropped to our phone. So glad joining this trip otherwise our phone can never take such good photos.

5-5. This was at the top of my bucket list! Glen our tour guide was awesome! He knew just where to go to see the northern lights and we did! The night sky was breathtaking! Glen took his time to educate me on the best ways to photograph the aurora!
He took spectacular photos of the aurora and each of us on the tour and shared them all with us.
I highly recommend this tour!

What a wonderful experience we had last night seeing the Northern Lights! Our guide, Glenn, was great - he was able to find a location where we could see the lights. He was very friendly and helpful, and he took some great photos that he shared with everyone. Making our booking was easy, and Jody was great in communicating with us.

Nothing, other the tour guide is polite. We didn't see the northern lights not any single of it. I hope they should reschedule us to do the hunting again since it costs us a lot for this tour which is so promising that we will be able to see it. Unfortunately we didn't see anything of it. Please give us even half of the refund or reschedule as even today to see the northern lights it was so disappointing.

Amazing tour. Ben and Amber were great. They were very knowledgeable about the northern lights and the area. Plus, they give you a little photography lesson at the same time! Super helpful. I highly recommend.
