Private Northern Lights Tours
2025-2026 season open for booking!
Are you traveling to the Tromsø area? Do you plan on experiencing the magnificent aurora borealis?
We offer a 6-hour, self-driven, private aurora chasing tour in the Troms area for people who have their own means of transportation (rental car, van or bus). This tour is made for those who want a privatized, flexible and higher quality experience. We accept any group with a minimum of 2 people. Adrien will determine and communicate an itinerary based on weather and aurora activity from 24 hours prior to the tour (*1).
After agreeing on the location and route, customers either meet Adrien on-location or at a specific meeting point. At the spot(s), Adrien will show you the ways of the aurora based on his extensive knowledge and experience. It includes reading the sky, understanding how the aurora is created, reading and monitoring forecasting tools, aurora chasing etiquette, capturing the aurora in pictures and film... This experience is specifically tailored for those who have their rental car and who don't know how to find clear skies/ aurora and who want to learn how to chase on their own at a future time, and/or who have a special private request (proposal...).

Professional photos / portraits (and film when possible) included in the price. Adrien will provide warm drinks and light snacks. (*3)

Reviews & testimonials
A magical experience with Adrien, specialist in the Northern Lights I had the chance to experience an unforgettable evening with Adrien, a true enthusiast of nature and the Northern Lights. His in-depth knowledge and boundless passion made this experience even more extraordinary. Thanks to him, I learned a lot about this fascinating phenomenon, which allowed me to better understand the magic behind these dancing lights. The Northern Lights show was absolutely incredible, a dazzling display of the power and beauty of nature. Adrien was able to share his wonder with us, making this evening not only educational but also deeply moving. I 100% recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover the Northern Lights in a magical setting, while being guided by a true enthusiast. Thank you again, Adrien, for this unique moment that I will never forget! I'll come back, that's for sure. Maur'uuru roa. Adeline (March 2025) 💚💚💚💚💚 (5/5)
We were in Tromsoe because we needed northern lights for a movie. There were also a few specifications regarding the landscape. I can only say that Adrian was incredibly competent and helpful and, with his extensive knowledge, provided us with what we needed within three days and exactly what he predicted. His very courteous, focused manner and positive nature made these three nights more than rewarding for the whole team. I can unreservedly recommend Adrian to everyone.

It was a great experience watching the northern lights with Adrien. We hadn't had a good day, but he was still able to use his data to show us exactly how the northern lights are formed, how likely it is to see them now, which direction we should look and what we should pay attention to. He was able to give me tips on taking photos. It was a very nice evening and we learned a lot. Steve (February 2025) 💚💚💚💚💚 (5/5)
How can you not experience this magical phenomenon without being accompanied by the best local specialist? Enthusiastically recommended by locals, we had the chance to take advantage of their services during an unforgettable evening. He took us to the best place, at the best time, to admire an extraordinary spectacle: an evening rich in the Northern Lights. In addition to the visual spectacle, he was able to offer us clear and captivating explanations which allowed us to better understand what was taking place above our heads. In summary, if you are looking for someone to share their passion and knowledge with you, Adrien is the person you need. Coming from far away (Polynesia) to live this experience as a family with our 11-year-old son, we were won over by his professionalism and exceptional support. Yann (February 2025) 💚💚💚💚💚 (5/5)
We had an awesome experience, Adrien used all his experience and hospitality to “hunt” the auroras!! He also made sure this moments were preserved for ever with beautiful professional pictures! The cold weather wasn’t an obstacle to achieve an extraordinary northern lights night! Thanks again !! Andres Gomez (December 2024) 💚💚💚💚💚 (5/5)
Adrian had been best. His coordination, and helpfulness for the whole tour were superb. Thanks to his years of experience, we had seen such a great aurora and had one of the best nights of our lives. He took our photos which felt like worth hanging on the wall. Even my family loved those photos a lot that it’s on their phone wallpapers. He took care of everything on the tour day and was helping us in the rest of the days in the Tromso area where we can see NL again and I will recommend him. Deeksha (November 2024) 💚💚💚💚💚 (5/5)
A week ago we went on a Northern Lights tour with our two children with Adrien. Since our children (5+8 years) are still small and stay up late, we wanted a private tour to be flexible. Adrien always took this into account and chose a route for us that wasn't too far away from our current location. The weather in Sweden & Norway was terrible this week, it was constantly raining or completely cloudy. It even snowed on the way to the agreed location and we were a little skeptical as to whether it would work :-) We were always in touch in the days before the tour and postponed the date for a few days because the weather didn't cooperate. Adrien showed great flexibility in this regard and did not stubbornly insist on doing the tour on the agreed day, but rather made it dependent on the weather. We ended up standing in a dark place and waiting for the northern lights. Adrien repeatedly checked the data on his cell phone and was able to tell us pretty accurately when and from which side the lights appeared. And in fact his predictions always came true and we had a very nice and unforgettable night and got great photos of him that he took with his camera. Thank you again Adrien.
