Everything was perfect. The guide was very professional with tons of information to share. The campfire was very nice, we enjoyed it very much. We were also lucky and could see some lights! I really recommend the tour. You will enjoy even if you cannot see the lights.
Despite cloudy sky in late March, we still caught the huge short-lasting strong northern lights at a warm comfortable halfly-sheltered place with fire, nice foods and tea at the correct time along with lots of funny stories. The tour guide is professional and friendly. Comment from two Hong Kongers.
We could see the Aurora. Our excellent guide Mr. Ivan took us his secret place out of town. We enjoyed the hot berry tea and fire cooked sausage, too. The Aurora was so sharp and clear which he says it is very rare. We spent very happy 3 hours. Thanks
The guide was really nice, but the event was not a too lucky one. We were out from 10 p.m. to past midnight, but did not see the lights. Also, the partially closed house where we should have sat around the fire was full with a very large group who was cooking meat and chicken almost no stop, so we had to kind of squeesh in to keep warm around the fire. The guide tried really hard to make it work, but overall the lack of lights and the packed place made the trip not really useful in the end.
We didn't get to see the lights because it was overcast, but we still had fun. We were able to go out into the crisp night air, or stay in the hut with a camp fire and roast sausages if we got cold. Our guide. Nick, was super nice, and made the experience very enjoyable.
