★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 217 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $203

Board Brim Explorer in Tromsø by 18:45 for a 19:00 departure around Tromsøya. You’ll enjoy a welcome drink, a three-course dinner, aurora commentary, and time on the viewing deck. The electric boat is smooth and quiet, but sightings depend entirely on clouds and solar activity.

“What an epic experience!! Let’s start with the crew Elli, Alberto and Fani were absolutely fantastic, full of knowledge and really helpful! The food, beautifully presented and very tasty, all the food was fish, I think maybe different choices for children under 16 should be available - but this is a minor critique!! The boat was clean, and the ride was smooth! We got super lucky during a week of heavy rain that we managed to see the lights, and they were epic!! We saw them dance throughout the whole cruise! A truly memorable and magical experience”

Guides including Deniz, Denis, and Alex help with phone and camera settings, serve sausages, rice bread, marshmallows, cookies, and hot berry drinks, then move on if clouds spoil the view.

“It was great. Deniz and Alex take really good care of their guests. We were picked up at our home and when we arrived at the first spot (near a river) the fire was already burning and Alex was preparing BBQ for us. A lot of other big tour operators are not nearly as organised and friendly and guest oriented as Deniz and Alex. We did not have to wait long for the northern lights. And when it became cloudy we immediately changed the spot. And also at this spot - we got out of the car and already saw the lights. It was a wonderful experience for me and…”
