72 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.8 average  ·  from $59

The Arctic north sells two seasons: frozen dark from December, and a sun that refuses to set from June. These 15 days out span both, from aurora nights and dog teams to the hikes above Abisko, each priced and timed for the daylight you will actually have.

2.Northern Lights Tour with Photos

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 333 reviews · 5 hours · from $187

Review of Kiruna’s five-hour Northern Lights tour with a photographer, campfire, hot drinks, snowsuits, hotel pickup, and aurora photos.

“We joined the New Years eve trip to find the northern lights. Despite difficult weather conditions (it was -34 and lots of clouds cover) our team drove us all the way to Finland to find the lights! Anyur was our driver (sorry for the bad spelling) and Iris was our photographer. They will do everything to give you the best chance of seeing the lights including staying out until 2am to see the strongest lights. They kept us warm in the vans and with the snowsuits and were very knowledgeable about the lights and the area. A great tour and we really recommend using these guys.”
