1What the operator says
LUXERY TOUR with Norwegian locals. Watching the Aurora Dance starts at the pickup point in Tromsø. We always have a warm barbeque cabin to heat up in during the tour. Where, depends on the weather.
We will provide you with warm and cold drink, snacks and sossage on the fire. You can taste bread with typically norwegian toppings. We also provide you with warm pants and jacket if needed.
After this cozy and personal adventure, we will drive you back to your stay in Tromsø. As long as it is not too far from the city center. Pictures will be shared on One Drive to all the customers, within 2 days after the trip. Normally the same night :-)
