Chasing the Northern Lights by ATV – A Unique Arctic Experience
Join us for a magical evening beneath the flaming sky of the Northern Lights – on four wheels through wild and beautiful nature! After pickup from your hotel, the harbor, or the tourist information center, we drive to the small village of Kviby, where you'll receive warm clothing, a helmet, and a thorough safety briefing.
In small groups, we ride along the dramatic coastline – known for its excellent Northern Lights conditions. If the weather allows, you may see the green lights dance across the untouched Arctic landscape – an unforgettable sight.
Our experienced, English-speaking guides are passionate storytellers of Northern Norwegian nature and culture, and will do their utmost to give you an extraordinary evening. While we can’t guarantee the Northern Lights, we always go the extra mile to find them.
After the tour, you’ll be safely transported back – warm at heart, with memories to last a lifetime.
