Our guide (Mansoor) was friendly and knowledgeable. He brought us to 3 places to view the Aurora, which we managed to have an amazing view of it. He shared on the science behind Aurora & helped with photography taking. Highly recommended!
I was so happy that this tour happened because I had several other cancel. While I appreciate them setting expectations that it was end of season, I still wanted the chance to see aurora- and we did! We drove around for hours and stopped at several cool places then finally saw them- and it was spectacular. The guide was great and took pics of all of us. He got to know every person and where we were all from. A great time . Highly recommend
Thank you dear Serena for booking your tour with us and leaving this phantastic rleview that we highly appreciate. We are happy that you enjoyed your tour on one of the last days of the season. Have a nice day. :)
Wonderful experience! This was the last weekend of the season and in fact another tour operator had cancelled our initial booking. I was happy to find Amazing Arctic Tours still running as advertised. Mansoor was our guide and was very knowledgeable about the locations to go, not only to see the Northern Lights but also different scenic spots to wait for daylight to fade. We were very fortunate to see one of the best displays, especially as it’s the end of the season. The photos Mansoor took and shared were also terrific!
Thank you dear Dawn for booking your tour with us and leaving this wonderful review that we highly appreciate 😍. We are happy you enjoyed your time with us. Welcome back again anytime.
Our guide Arman was super friendly and really kind. He was more than happy to take photos, and really made the tour. I was really impressed with the tour itself. I wasn't expecting to go to other places too, we stopped at the southern part of the island to check out the beaches, waterfalls, fjords, a sunset stop, a quick rest stop then onto this amazing fjord to see the northern lights. Arman even stopped when we seen a reindeer to go out and see it and take photos. We had a bonfire, hot squash, cakes and roasted marshmallows. The tour also included a photo or 2, which was great. And Arman even spent some time trying to help us with our phones to get the most out of the pictures. We had the best time and thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone! We got some great pictures and we're lucky enough to see the lights

Thank you det Christian for booking your tour with us and writing this nice review, that we highly appreciate 😍. We are happy you enjoyed the tour with us. 🤗🌹
We had an incredible northern lights experience thanks to our guide Aram. Despite challenging cloud cover, he drove us well outside the city to find clear skies — and it paid off. Aram clearly knows the terrain and aurora patterns deeply, and his ability to read the forecast and make smart on-the-fly decisions made all the difference. He was warm, knowledgeable, and made the whole group feel like we were in great hands. He also helped us capture stunning photos and took the time to explain what we were seeing. If you’re visiting Tromsø and want to see the northern lights, book with Aram — he genuinely goes above and beyond to deliver the experience. Can’t recommend h
Thank yiou dear Taylor we highly appreciate your review and are happy you and your family enjoyed the trip.
Amazing experience ,we enjoy so much the trip despite the low activity of the Aurora this period (April).The journey was full of picturesque places and the guide was so pleasant and friendly .Kids loved it as well Highly recommended for families
Thank yiou dear Grorgina we highly appreciate your review and are happy you and your family enjoyed the trip.
The Northern Lights season is almost over due to increasing daylight (season runs from late Sept until mid Apr). The tour was adapted due to this reality and it was a beautiful experience. We were able to explore beautiful scenery and enjoy the almost midnight sun. The Northern Lights made their appereance very shy but yet enjoyable.
Thank you dear Maritza for booking our tour and leaving this wonderful review that we highly appreciate.😍😊
We were booked for a tour on the Monday but Mansoor called to say the forecast wasn’t good and suggested we rebook for the following night which was very good of him. On the Tuesday we were the only people on the tour and Mansoor made a great effort to stop off on the way to our final destination to show us Reindeer and some lovely view points. We were lucky to see the aurora and Mansoor helped us take some great photos and he took some fab ones of us as a family. He dropped us off at our hotel at the end of the tour which was much appreciated. Overall excellent tour and many thanks to Mansoor.
Thank you very much dear Claire for your booking and leaving this wonderful review that we Highly appreciate 😍🙏🏼 We are happy you enjoyed your time on the tour. 😊
