Outstanding tour horrible cloudy sky - We did the Northern Lights Wilderness Tour with Professional Camera 17 October. There were six in the group and three guides. The guides were fantastic and very knowledgeable and experienced. The evening could not have been more enjoyable except for the cloudy sky obliterating any chance of observing the northern lights or celestial objects.

Spectacular experience!!! - The experience with this company was very good. The Guide Luck was spectacular, very professional and attentive. I recommend this company. However, even scheduled, check in the office hours before the tour the weather forecasts, because if so postpone your trip so as not to lose the money.

Great Guide and Aurora Boreal - The company has kept its promise. There were guests available, the Guide - Denis - was always friendly and attentive, trying to explain everything was asked. Since time was not ideal - we knew it - we ended up going to a more remote place, where we were able to observe the aurora boreal. On the way back, the lights were better and the Guide stopped to see and take more pictures, which was very kind because we were out of schedule. The snack was pretty basic, but as it was just a supplement, it was worth it.

So good! - We had such an amazing time seeing the Northern Lights. Dennis (excuse spelling if incorrect!) was amazing. He was honest about our chances of seeing the NLs and continued to monitor them to help our best chances. He constantly made sure got the best pictures possible and made everyone feel welcome even though none of us spoke the same language. Would 100% recommend!

Great Tour - The tour guide was very friendly and helpful. He could speak four languages including Chinese. It was rainy and cloudy in the night. He drove miles away to find the northern lights. Fortunately, we saw the northern lights and took many fantastic pictures.

Very good experience and tour operator. - The tour has been great, we have been lucky to be able to see the northern lights that night, that wasn't a given of course. Nick has been fantastic! Thank to small group we were part of and although we were out until late, Nick made sure our tired kids were involved, entertained and happy throughout. He explained the origin of the northern lights in layman terms, and took some great pictures for us that will now be part of our collection of memories.

Northern Lights Excursion on the Arctic Circle - Enjoyed a view of the Northern Lights phenomenon and some camaraderie around a fire pit in a teepee with folks from around the world (Malaysia, Italy, Chile, and India).

Go buy the experince not the aurora expectations - So, we booked the small group tour with photographer. Buy more the experience rather tran the seeing the lights.DO NOT CHOOSE DENNIS, as your guide he was very unprofessional , we feel unsafe during the tril, he was driving like crazy, we were with the kids, that even didn’t matter; during the road trip he speak nothing to us, no curiosities about the magic Lapland , NOTHING, even he said not to talk to him he was arguing some stuff in the office, as we suppose, I felt he was disturbed by every question we adressed him. He took us only in 2 places, we knew from the beginning we won’t see anything. So we took a photography tour, we had 2! Instead he managed very well the sausages :)) I don’t tking he qualifies for a guide tour.

Misleading and unprofessional guide and tour - Very disappointing tour. Was not provided with any overalls and the guide mostly kept to himself without giving any details or information about the plan. The tour mentions upto 3 locations, but we were only taken to 2 locations not far from the city, where the city lights were clearly affecting any chances of seeing northern lights. The weather was really cloudy and most of the other tour companies canceled the tour for that evening as there was no possibility of seeing the northern lights. Our guide went ahead with the tour anyway and was only focused on wrapping up the BBQ snack and then heading back. He did not even wait for the said 4 hours or try anything to improve chances of catching some aurora by looking for a place with clear sky. Complete waste of time and money! The photos provided the next day were a joke. They were not edited at all and were completely unusable due to darkness. Certainly not 'professional' photography here! Would not recommend this tour or company to anyone.
