    Fantastic tour with a great team and facilities

    Fantastic tour with Margaux & Gregor. They gave a great explanation of what to expect, took us to a stunning location and looked after us so well with refreshments and stories while we waited for some activity. When it arrived a couple of hours later the sky was mesmerising. Absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!

    Dancing Auroras

    Well organised tour , with our very enthusiastic, kind and attentive guide Margo. Comfortable & warm mini bus, with night camera attached for aurora viewing. Travelled approx 1.5 hours to the centre of Ringvassoya Island, searching for a micro climate & the stars’, which we found , despite persistent rain in Tromso! After a barbecue of hot dogs and roasted marshmallow’s, plus plenty of hot coffee / chocolate, the stars appeared, followed in time by a beautiful dancing aurora show. A second beautiful aurora burst , this time on our way home on the eastern coast line of Kvaloya, Fantastic photos and great company, made for a really excellent evening ( out for 7 hours) and wonderful memories.

    Magician’s at work, truly

    From the moment our tour began, David and our driver (I'm sorry I forgot name) proved they weren’t just guides — they were absolute magicians. On a night when the weather looked hopeless and the rain refused to let up, they somehow managed to pull the Northern Lights out of the sky like a rabbit from a hat. They drove tirelessly, chasing every possible break in the clouds until they found the perfect pocket of clear sky. Once we arrived, they transformed a snowy roadside into a cosy Arctic camp: a warm fire crackling, dinner cooking, and even a heated loo tent (which deserves its own award). Their knowledge and enthusiasm were matched only by their kindness. They helped us adjust our phone settings, took stunning photos for us, and made sure every single person felt looked after. Nothing was too much trouble — they were patient and genuinely passionate about giving us the best experience possible. Thanks to their determination and expertise, we didn’t just see the Northern Lights — we lived a moment we’ll never forget.

    Magician’s as work

    David and our driver (sorry forgot name) were both amazing, attentive and informative. On our way they were busy checking the science for the right spot, and on a challenging night they pulled it out the hat, took loads of photos, while somehow setting up camp sorting dinner and showing people how to photograph on phones. We also had a loo tent that was warmed. Kind enough to drop everyone back their accommodation.

    Amazing Northern Lights Experience.

    Amazing experience. Special thanks to Margaux (guide) and Gregor (Bus Pilot). They were amazing. Margaux kept us entertained throughout the tour. Both were very efficient in arranging the fireside experience when we reached the spot for viewing, and Margaux took some amazing photos of the Northern Lights for us. Margaux made our experience amazing. If we visit Tromso again, we will definitely seek out the tour with this company and especially with Margaux and Gregor.

    Northern Lights Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.

    How much does Northern Lights Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus cost?

    +

    Prices start at $243 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 Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 165 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 Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Northern Lights Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Northern Lights Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus?

    +

    Around 58 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Northern Lights Tour, Photo, Toilet, Meal, Skycam in Mbus 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 Northern Lights Minibus Chase from Tromsø with Chasing Lights, Northern Lights Big Bus Chase with Chasing Lights, Tromsø Northern Lights Chase We Go Where The Lights Appear. 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.
