Sensational trip
We chose Govint because of the good reviews and, what can I say, we were completely enthusiastic! You immediately feel that Govint is an ‘expert’ in the aurora borealis and that he knows the area and the really good spots. He was very concerned about every single guest, provided us with warm clothes, soup and cocoa and above all with the very helpful tripods. The spot was brilliantly chosen! We were lucky enough to witness a unique show in the sky. The campfire was then another highlight to warm up now and then. We really felt very comfortable! Clear recommendation!

Great Northern Lights Experience with Govind
Govind was a gracious and helpful host for our Northern Lights tour. He ensured we were warm, comfortable and well-fed with hot soup and sandwiches. Most importantly, he was an experienced guide who was very quickly able to spot the lights and direct us to the best spot to take them. Overall an experience that was very worth it

Amazing!
We went for a northern lights tour with Jacek (Govind) 2 days ago in Tromso. It was a bad weather day in Tromso, and we didn't really know if we would have any luck with seeing the northern lights, but we got to see the lights and beautiful star studded sky, and had a very warm, and memorable experience with him. He took us far away where the sky was clear, gave us good information about the lights, clicked amazing photos of the lights and the group, also gave us warm tomato soup and sandwiches, and later hot chocolate with cookies, snow suit and snow shoes for all of us as well for the many hours of staying out in the super cold weather, and even dropped us back to our stay locations at the end of the tour. Highly recommended. Thanks a lot for the memorable experience. :)

So beautiful memories
Govind was a great guide. He led us away from the rain and clouds near the Finnish border. When we finally saw the stars, all we had to do was wait. And finally, we saw several beautiful Northern Lights. It was a magical experience. I recommend it. He gave me photography tips and I have beautiful memories. Thanks to him. I highly recommend the experience.

Absolutely recommended!
Absoltely recommended! Govind is the best guide you could wish for. He looked after us and our son wonderfully and is an absolute expert in his field. His precise weather observations benefited the whole group and we were able to witness a magnificent Aurora. The entire experience, including a campfire, warm soup, cocoa and cookies as well as extra clothing and tripods provided, was only possible thanks to Govind's friendliness and expertise. Be sure to book the tour! You will not regret it. Govind offers you a unique once in a lifetime experience.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic cost?
+
Prices start at $242 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 Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tromso, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic?
+
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 Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic?
+
Around 2 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small group Aurora Chases - When the Sky becomes Magic 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.
