Summary

Don your warmest clothes and make your own way to a centrally located pickup point in Tromsø.

As you travel, watch a video about the mystifying science behind the Northern Lights. On arrival at your specially selected viewing station, opt to sit inside a warm lavvo (teepee-style tent) or beside a campfire.

Enjoy steaming hot chocolate, coffee, and local snacks, or upgrade to enjoy a hot meal, like reindeer stew or fish soup.
