Overview

Embark on our Quest as we visit multi locations in search of the perfect position to be ready should the northern lights illuminate. Expect a thrilling evening as you are led by experts that use Kp indexing and weather tracking tools to find the best vantage locations. We supply nightly research as we openly share data, celestial tales before and during our quest for the northern lights.

These is no guarantee. While we increase everyone's chance of seeing the aurora lights by providing the very best resources to pinpoint those exact moments of action, unfortunately mother nature and its complex weather scheme makes the evening unpredictable. This excursion is a venture. A venture for all parties who would make an attempt to join a search party with its entire focus on witnessing earth's rarest celestial light show.

Our Flexible Sliding Ticket Program
Every seat reservation features a multi-evening coverage that spans over several evenings. The reservation may be used one evening.

What's Included

  • Private transportation
  • Bottled water
  • No refunds or credits should the aurora lights not be viewed or insufficient illumination.
