“Our guide was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. He shared so many fascinating facts and stories about the Northern Lights, and also told us a lot about the city and Sweden in general, which made the whole experience even more meaningful. He took us to three different observation spots and was very patient in teaching us how to properly watch and understand the aurora. At the end, he even brought us juice and desserts, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend choosing this tour!”

Our guide was amazing and although it’s freezing we were provided with warm gear and hot drinks and snacks. We went across a frozen lake and it was amazing. We can’t wait to be back to Brandon’s lodge and next time we are also looking forward to staying there and enjoying plenty more activities. Just the best xxxxx”
