Polaroid Choice - Ivar is a very professional tour guide, he worked hard for us to look for places to see the brightness, in the weather forecast 100% cloudy evenings also succeeded in finding the brightness, and also took us to places that can see the brightness! It's beautiful! Thank him! To score, if the full score is 5 points, then he is 5+!!! I highly recommend everyone to look for him for the great light👍

Our trip was wonderful - It was one of the most enchanting adventures I've ever lived! The route and the hunting of the saddle was incredible! Our guide was polite with knowledge that helped us very much in what we had gone to do! We thank them very much!

Went the extra mile to help us see the northern lights! - I had assumed that we weren't going to arrive in Bodø in time to go to a northern lights tour and night 1 of our stay in Bodø so I had booked us for night 2 but our guide contacted me to let me know the sky would be clearer on the night before the night I had booked us for and worked with us so we could go on the tour on the earlier night. And we were able to see the northern lights multiple times that evening! And he also took us to see and hear Saltstraumen, which I had been hoping to see, on the way back to Bodø!

Fantastic NL experience with brilliant guide - Clear communication in advance from our guide, Ivar. As all guests were in contact on a Whatsapp group, we were able to start an hour and three quarters ahead of the scheduled time in order to catch the best of the lights. 9 hours of NL hunting in a super comfortable van with lots of success in different locations. Fantastic guide photos available within a couple of hours. Thoroughly recommend this tour with Ivar.

Excellent experience - We went out for hunting Northern lights with Ivar. He is very passionate about it and it has been a superb experience: we have been already hunting northern ligths in Tromso and Iceland before, but this trip has been the best. Even after we had already seen northern lights at a beautiful beach near Bodo, Ivar drove us to two more places to take photos of the Northern lights

An amazing experience with or without the lights - This experience was amazing! Originally things weren’t looking great weather wise but Ivar was really flexible with us while we decided whether or not we’d go ahead. In the end we did and Ivar very kindly picked us up from our hotel just 15 minutes later. He was so knowledgeable about where to go and when to stop and we were fortunate to see the northern lights thanks to this! But even without that, we enjoyed the experience of hearing about the lights and seeing some beautiful beaches at night. We are so grateful for the wonderful pictures Ivar got of us under the lights and he gave us some great hiking tips for the rest of our time in Bodø. 10/10!
