Chasing the northern lights

Photography support & warm breaks

Capture the moment with help from your guide, who offers assistance with camera settings and composition. Between stops, warm up with hot chocolate and stories about Arctic life. Some Tromso bus tour routes include small campfires for extra comfort and atmosphere.

Things to know before booking your Tromso northern lights bus tour

  • Each bus tour lasts about 4 to 6 hours, depending on weather and aurora activity. The flexible format means stops may vary nightly to find the clearest skies, a major advantage over static viewing locations.
  • Rest stops are planned strategically for refreshments and restroom breaks, especially during longer routes that head toward inland valleys or the Finnish border.
  • All tours provide thermal suits, boots, and hot drinks. Dress in layered winter clothing underneath for extra warmth during outdoor stops.
  • Most 3-Hour Northern Lights bus tours in Tromso are family-friendly, welcoming children under supervision. However, as viewing stops may be long and cold, ensure kids are well-layered and comfortable.
  • Accessibility is limited. Boarding steps and snow-covered paths may pose challenges for guests with reduced mobility. If you have specific needs, check with your operator before booking to ensure appropriate arrangements.

Helpful tips for your Tromso northern lights bus tour

  • Dress smartly: Even with thermal suits, wear insulated layers, gloves, and wool socks for extended outdoor viewing.
  • Bring snacks and water: Hot drinks are provided, but light snacks keep your energy up on the longer Tromso bus tour routes.

Although I was skeptical about taking a tour on a bus with 50 people, I can say that my experience was absolutely wonderful. We arrived not far from Tromsø, but the view was breathtaking—both the landscape and the aurora borealis, which kept us company throughout the entire tour. The tea and cookies before heading back were a nice touch.

We went to a beautiful location, extremely well organised, Margot, our guide was amazing, seating, campfire, hot chocolate and hotdogs by the fire, even a heated tent for a loo was great for the girls. Never to be forgotten. First Class tour. Whilst seeing the lights cannot be guaranteed the arrangements, location and guide were superb. Bonus, we saw an amazing display of lights which continued for 2 - 3 hours and then safely delivered back to our accomodation by the guide and her great driver, Gregor who also worked hard to set up and clear camp in double quick time at the end of the evening, to get us all on our way back to Tromso.

Fish soup made by the skipper himself. The sea was very rough, but it was still an adventure and a great experience to see Tomsk from the water.

Feeding the reindeer and the reindeer-sled ride were absolutely fantastic — definitely the highlights of the day. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see the Northern Lights. The stories about Sámi culture were really interesting, and the traditional meal was nice as well, but it wasn’t a three-course dinner as advertised — we received a hot drink, some biscuits, and the main dish.
