An aurora tour (also called northern lights hunting) is a guided evening experience where the goal is to find the clearest skies and best viewing spots. Unlike fixed-location viewing, aurora tours are:
  • Flexible and weather-driven
  • Led by experienced local guides
  • Focused on real-time aurora forecasts
This significantly improves your chances compared to waiting in one place.
