Itinerary
Tromso
Begin your evening in Tromsø, where you’ll meet Arctic GM’s expert Aurora Hunter guides. From here, the hunt begins — routes may lead up to two hours from the city in search of clear skies, navigating fjords, mountain passes, and inland climate pockets. Your guides share Aurora science, Arctic nature, and local legends, supported by Arctic GM’s 24/7 Back Office Aurora Command Center and over 150 field team members across Northern Scandinavia. When conditions align, your journey pauses at hand-picked wilderness locations, far from city glow. Step out into quiet Arctic darkness as shimmering waves of green — sometimes purple — swirl across the night sky. Your guides capture professional DSLR photos of you under the lights, while you warm up with thermal overalls, hot drinks, and light snacks. A perfect blend of science, nature, and Northern magic — and a night you’ll never forget.
