Superb
This was such a nice trip, it felt so personal, as if it was just friends riding and chatting and laughing. You cannot buy that sort of “vibe”. A heartfelt thanks to our host and I hope my paper dragon amused your children!

Description
Your best chance to see the northern lights in Alta is to be out under the night sky as often as you can. This tour takes you outdoors for a cozy “slow adventure” – a perfect way to spend an evening in good company on a leisurely local northern lights hunt. Your ride will take you through the forest and along the Alta River until you arrive at a wilderness shelter and take a break. A late, light dinner will be served around a fire, protected from the weather by the shelter’s half-wall. Along with conversation and local stories, if the conditions are right you might even have a chance to take a few pictures of the aurora in the sky!

A trip not to be forgotten
A really fun thing to do and an experience not be forgotten. The food was delicious and the tour team were lovely. They picked us up from the port and were very efficient. Would definitely do it again

Magical Sleigh Ride through snowy forest with great Northern Lights above
Tina picked us up from the cruise terminal around 8 pm and after a 15 minute journey to Flatmoen Tina then guided our horse drawn sleigh for about 2 1/2 hrs through the snowy forest adjacent to the River Alta. For at least half of our sleigh ride the northern lights danced around the sky. Tina cooked a wonderful reindeer meal around a sheltered camp fire whilst the lights fluttered around. Finally Tina took us back to port around midnight. A truly magical experience and Tina was a wonderful guide cook and chauffeur throughout. Whilst this a slightly more expensive excursion it was worth every penny. Many thanks to Tina and all at Flatmoen.

Our guide, Halga, did a fantastic job! He was very personable & friendly! We only caught a glimpse of the Northern lights on sled ride back, but that’s beyond anyone’s control! It was a fun experience!

Top 10 Bucket List Achieved - Dancing Northern Lights
Picked up on time at the port as we were cruising. Fitted out with snow suits highly recommended if you do not want Smokey clothes. Sleigh Ride was warm and the night sky was a sight to see. We stopped and had an amazing meal of Reindeer Pita and a delicious hot Cinnamon Roll. Then the spectacular Northern Lights appeared with the stars and constellations appearing in full view. The staff were awesome full of knowledge and took care of us all. If I could give 6 out of 5 stars I would.

Best Experience
Stayed at FLATMOEN NATUR Alta norway Had one night under the stars with a wagon ride & a camp-fire dinner to see the northern lights. We saw them a little bit .slept in a cabin with a spar and a class top roof . The wagon ride was really good (when there is snow, it will be a sleigh ride ) the dinner around a camp-fire was really good the hole experience was really fantastic l recommend it
