Welcome, Greenlander welcomes you on the most adventurous Northern Lights chase in the Northern Norway. You will be guided by a pro photographer (see proof from our Instagram or Facebook page,) who will safely take you around the perimeter on a 4x4 modified Mercedes Benz minivan. The tour consists central pickup, warm meal, hot drinks, tripods, thermal suit, boots, campfire(if conditions allow,) Aurora portraits and so much more. Greenlander has a reputation of not giving up and therefore having one of the highest success rates in the business, around 95%-98% chance of catching the elusive Northern Lights. Please consider, the weather can be harsh and sometimes we have to chase for hours, before we can even see first stars. This tour might not suit for elder, obese and unfit participants, as sometimes we hike in a snow and our minivan is rather compact compared to bigger buses used by bigger companies.

Book Greenlander!!
My husband and I joined Greenlander for back to back northern lights trips in October 2026 with Kevin being our guide both nights. Booking was easy and information provided was complete. They provide thermal suits and boots if you need them. Kevin took us to quiet places with no other people. He was knowledgeable in camera set up and was happy to help everyone. While northern lights are a part of nature, you never know what you might get. We went in with little expectations but high hope. We got beautiful shows both nights. Since my husband and I do a lot of photography, we are always nervous about being rushed on group trips. But never once did we feel like we had to cut things short. Kevin did a great job accommodating those who wanted to sit around the campfire and talk as well as those who wanted to take all the pictures and soak up all things Norway, Finland and Northern Lights. Overall an amazing experience. Inclusive, safe and fun evenings. Extremely highly recommended!!

An Unforgettable Northern Lights Experience with Greenlander
What an absolutely magical night in Tromsø! 🌌💚💜 A huge thank you to Kevin from Greenlander for making our Northern Lights adventure such an unforgettable experience! Kevin is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate and experienced. What impressed me most was his ability to interpret the weather and aurora forecasts, knowing exactly where to take us and when to expect the best viewing conditions. Even with the constantly changing Arctic weather, Kevin confidently guided us to a fantastic location. Within about an hour, we were rewarded with a breathtaking display of the Northern Lights, with beautiful shades of green and hints of pink and purple dancing across the sky! It wasn’t simply luck. Kevin’s expertise, careful planning and understanding of the local conditions made all the difference. Beyond his professionalism, Kevin was friendly, enthusiastic and genuinely committed to making sure everyone had a wonderful experience. The beautiful photographs shared after the tour were another lovely touch! If you’re visiting Tromsø and hoping to witness the Northern Lights, I wholeheartedly recommend Greenlander and Kevin. Having an experienced guide who understands the science, forecasts and local weather makes such a difference.

11 out of 10!
11 out of 10 score for Kevin the Frenchman's Aurora tour in Tromso. His knowledge, skills and hospitality made our Aurora journey unforgettable! Kevin knows the area well and brought us to an amazing spot for Aurora viewing based on weather/cloud/activity levels. As a professional photographer, he took a number of priceless shots for us! Would recommend!

Best Northern Lights tour
Kevin is the best! He drove us into one of most scenic fjords and even though it started to rain initially, the night kept getting better and better later on. We caught some beautiful dancing aurora multiple times and also during our way back. Kevin is a super friendly guy and just is the best at what he does. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in northern lights.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max cost?
+
Prices start at $304 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tromso usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tromso is not rushed.
Is Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,531 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Tromso, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max?
+
Around 536 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tromso can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tromso and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tromso within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tromso?
+
On Outty we rank every Tromso experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chasing Lights: Aurora Big Bus Chase (All Photos Included), Tromsø: Small Group | Northern Lights Chase + All-Inclusive, Tromso Northern Lights Minibus Chase Small Group Tour with Photos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tromso?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tromso?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Northern Lights Adventure with Greenlander, 8 people max?
