They should be aware that they have to respect the natural surroundings and also that the northern lights are an exhilarating experience of nature's creation and has to be seen in real to admire its sheer beauty.

Incredible tour, delivery of official photos enrolled

The tour itself was great, we made 3 stops, we walked a lot and we got a place to see the dawn with a lot of quality. They take pictures and have to deliver in 2 days, but they only delivered with 3. I went to the company meeting point and they said that when it was possible they would send the password to access the photos. I think there should be a more practical way to solve this.

Operator response

Thanks for your review. We’re glad to hear you found the tour good. That said, a 3-star rating usually reflects a below-average experience, which doesn’t quite match your comment. At Hello Tromsø, we work hard to deliver high-quality Arctic experiences for our guests.

Hard trip

There were two guides with us on this coach trip to search for the Northern Lights. On the way, we were kept informed about how much further we would have to go to see the Lights, which ended up being across the Finnish border. Whether that location was planned originally was hard to say. Other tour buses were there when we arrived. Kudos to the intrepid bus driver who made it through blizzard conditions, without going off the road as at least 3 other vehicles did. Our biggest complaint was a failure to communicate on the part of the guides. On our arrival, apparently fire pits were set ablaze and my husband mentioned that we could get warm. When I went back behind the bus, I discovered that there was also a table set up with hot chocolate mix and cookies, which my husband had not seen. After seeing the Lights, we returned to the bus. Some minutes passed and then, the other guide came on the bus to announce the last call for hot dogs. That was the first we heard of any other food being served. We returned to the ship close to 3:00 a.m. after setting out at 6:00p.m. The second guide was very enthusiastic but very hard to understand. We did at least see the Northern Lights as white streaks in the sky.

Operator response

Thank you for joining our Northern Lights tour and for your kind words about our driver and guide, especially considering the difficult blizzard conditions that evening. Our guides always inform guests about refreshments available at the location, including hot chocolate, cookies and hot dogs, and these are announced during the stop. However, we understand that in dark winter conditions and while focusing on the aurora it can sometimes be easy to miss announcements. We're glad you were able to experience the Northern Lights and appreciate you traveling with us.

Looking for Aurora, still……

The guides were great (Nicolai and Vivian), unfortunately we only saw a sliver of northern lights for a few seconds. They tried and we still had a really good time

Amazing northern lights chase that was so worthwhile due to great tour guides.

Wow! Beyond expectation. Our guides found spectacular northern lights when other tours the same night did not. Despite rain and cloud in Tromso our guides located clear skies and were prepared to travel to ensure we had the best opportunity. Kirstin and Nicolai were friendly, thoughtful and very knowledgeable - giving great commentary on the journey, arranging photos and campfire refreshments at the location. An amazing experience and well worth it. So pleased I chose this tour rather than others.
