Wonderful experience. ...
Wonderful experience. The team is very professional but very friendly. Very well organised and coordinated tour. Everyone in team was photographer. They help you in setting professional camera as well as the mobile phones. Though the light phenomenal depends on many factors but they selected best spot just covering the chilli wind and bright moon light. They gave every one with warm.shoes and full jacket which keep you warm. Helped with taking photographs. Though it was full moon bright light we could see northern lights. Highly recommended tour with the service provider. Thank you team.

Amazing small group Northern lights experience
Prior to writing this I had only written one Cool Destinations review, but after our adventure with Northbound yesterday I felt I had no choice but to change that. Where do I even begin? For starters, Oli and Ryan are the best guides you could possibly imagine. It took less than 5 minutes for everyone in the van to settle in and feel comfortable. Not only did they show genuine interest and care for their guests, but they shared their own personal stories as well as the science behind the lights and how they approach chasing them. The group was small and the adventure felt tailored to everyone there. Despite the lights not cooperating as much as they could have, the night itself was unforgettable. We shared stories around a campfire, still got incredible photos with the lights, and the long drive and time spent in the cold flew by so quick. If you are looking for a massive tour where all anyone cares about is a photo with the lights and being able to post something to your Instagram, this might not be the tour for you. But if you want to hang out with a small group, be driven around Norway (or potentially even Finland) with the coolest guides, share stories around a fire and more than likely still get the best photos possible, you have to go with Northbound. I cannot recommend them any higher, as evidenced by the once in a half-decade review.

Our guide George was very knowledgable about the area and he was committed to ensure that our group had the opportunity to witness the northern lights. He provided us an hot meal, warmed us by a fire and gave us information about the area we were in and the science of the northern lights.

This is the one to choose for your Northern Lights adventure! ✨
We had an absolutely wonderful night chasing the Northern Lights, with Owen as our fantastic guide and Ivan expertly handling the driving. Their genuine enthusiasm, warmth, and hospitality made the entire experience truly special.From breathtaking sunset views over the fjords and cascading waterfalls to a cozy bonfire and a delicious dinner under the open sky, every moment was magical. And then came the highlight — the Aurora dancing beautifully across the horizon, surrounded by a sky filled with countless stars.It was an unforgettable evening, filled with nature, warmth, laughter, and a little bit of magic. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more. 💚✨Thank you, Owen and Ivan, for such an incredible experience. Highly recommended for anyone dreaming of an unforgettable Northern Lights adventure!

Wow!! just Incredible
Oh boy how should I describe our time with Oli and Ryan?? It was just incredible. From pick up to drop off at our place of stay the entire experience was truly exceptional. We had booked the 8 person small group tour but on that day there were no one else booked, but our family. So it was essentially a private tour!!x It didn’t seem like a commercial tour but time away with friends. Both of them Kept us engaged and entertained with stories and experiences. We were lucky to have one clear day with good weather and Oli and Raysn ensured we had the best possible North lights experience. They drive us around 80 kms away from Tromso to the banks of Balsfjord. We were the only people there. They immediately set up a fire and their two camera setup. They explained to us the science behind the aurora phenomenon and we waited listening to the stories and then by 9:30 Pm the aurora show started and it went on well past midnight. As Oli was talking us through Rayan was working the cameras, taking photographs with us enthusiastically, various angles, and poses to ensure the best outcome. He also created a beautiful time-lapse video which was amazing to see. We were served hot chocolate and Dinner with bred and sausages. They even stocked veggie sausages!! That was so thoughtful. All the photos and videos were mailed to us. We were lucky to see a wonderful spatial phenomenon which was enhanced greatly by the company Oli and Ryan kept us. We were picked up in their comfortable Van and they do provide winter clothing even though we didn’t need them. The whole tour from pick up at 6:30 PM lasted about 7 hours. Look no further for your Aurora tour. Just go with Northbound. Oli and Ryan absolutely know what they are doing and will ensure you come back with great memories. Thank you so much Oli and Ryan.
