Northern Lights Lookout
Overview
Breathe in, get a snack with a warm drink and enjoy the natural light show in the dark arctic sky far away from the city lights! This way we increase your chances of seeing Northern Lights in all their beauty - with outdoor open space to make the magic even more exhilarating! The way to our private location will take 40 minutes starting from our Safari Center where you are provided with warm outfits (if needed).
Once at the location, take a seat around the fireplace and learn about the Northern Lights following stories from our guides to the sound of wood crackling in the fire in the background. Patience and a bit of luck - that's all it takes to see the fairy tale come true! Your guide will be happy to offer some help with taking pictures, charge your phone and let the magic happen!
Please note: The northern lights are a natural occurrence and we are unable to guarantee activity, vibrancy or color on the evening of the tour.
