Best Northern Light Tour

Published on Mar, 2024

I joined 3 different aurora tours from 3 different companies. Each tour is rated 4.5+. This tour is the best out of the 3. They picked us up on time and drove us to a warm cabin to wait for the aurora lights. Within the cabin, there're warm fireplace, hot tea and snacks. They also have furs so we can take some pictures/kill time. The cabin is pretty spacious and it's not crowded at all. It's shared with 2 tour groups. There are tents and camp fire outside for marshmallow. The tour guide checked the aurora lights outside while we were waiting inside the cabin, and let us know once the lights were visible. It's a long wait as the light didn't come out till midnight. Once the lights looked better, they took us to a lake to have a better view of the lights. They took videos and pictures of the northern lights and shared with us the next day. The tour guide is very nice to us. This is the most comfortable way to see northern lights. Other aurora hunting tours used a shuttle bus to drive around different locations to see the lights. It's -28C at night in March and the buses barely had heating inside. So staying outside for 4-5 hours is very cold and difficult. This tour offers the best experience (comfortable, warm and nice view) and I highly recommend them.

The tour was basically...

Published on Mar, 2024

The tour was basically centered at the lodge. There was no aurora hunting as the sky was very clear. Having done other aurora hunting tours, this one was the best for me. Whenever there was no aurora in the sky, we could get inside the lodge or even the teepees to get warm. Many times I just left my camera outside taking pictures and went inside to get cozy. The scenery around the lodge is also very nice, with lots of possibilites for nice pictures.

Angie was Great!

Published on Mar, 2024

Angie was very nice, and she did her best to navigate around and try to find some clear skies to get a good view of the aurora. She did eventually get us a view, and she helped us take pictures of it as well. Would recommend to anyone.

Awe Inspiring!

Published on Mar, 2024

The weather that day was very cloudy and snowing. I did not think we had a chance of seeing the lights. The tour guide was able to chase down the lights. WOW, I was wrong. We ended up seeing the most beautiful lights. It was majestic. This tour is a must. .

Great night out under the aroura and stars

Published on Feb, 2024

Great tour. We were very well looked after. A little frustrating at the start waiting around for other guests that were late but once we were on our way it was only a few minutes before we saw the sky lit up with the aroura. There were plenty of photo opportunities and Mini worked tirelessly to ensure everyone got lots of pictures. The cabin was warm cosy and drinks and snacks were unlimited. Would have been good if we could have seen more colours in the aroura but that is mother nature! Overall a great night out.
