Kiruna Northern Lights Tour with Photographer

1.Kiruna Northern Lights Tour with Photographer

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 735 reviews · 4 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $223Our pick

Set out from Kiruna at 7 pm with a guide such as Onur, Iris, Bernard, or Robin, then chase clear skies toward Abisko or beyond. The small group may stop by a frozen lake or river for aurora viewing, a fire, hot drinks, snacks, and professional photos. Expect cold, snow, and some walking.

“Be open. Be patient. There are various factors that affect the visibility, so don’t expect that the guides can turn the Northern Lights on and off like a switch. The staff is highly professional and provides constant entertainment. Seeing the actual show FAR outweighs any inconvenience.”
