The Northern Lights are never guaranteed… except with us.
As Lapland’s Original Aurora Hunters™, our family has lived in Lapland for 20 generations since the 1600s. With Tripadvisor’s Best of the Best 2025 Award (first-ever in Lapland, top 1% worldwide) and Travelers’ Choice 2025 (top 10% worldwide), Arctic GM is the most trusted Northern Lights tour operator in Tromsø.
Unlike ordinary tours, we don’t limit your night to a few hours. With unlimited mileage and time (typically 6–10 hours), and a proven 99% success rate, we go wherever the Aurora shines — even across borders if needed.
Your night begins with a pickup in Tromsø. Step into a modern heated van, where your small group (max 8-20 guests) is welcomed by your professional guide — also your dedicated photographer.
Throughout the night, our back office coordinates live updates from 150+ team members and family across Lapland. This unique network ensures we always know where skies are clear. If conditions shift, we move too — sometimes across borders — until the Aurora appears.
Tromsø’s location above the Arctic Circle makes it one of the world’s best-known places to see the Northern Lights. Surrounded by fjords, mountains, and islands, it offers dramatic Arctic scenery as the backdrop for your chase. With our unlimited mileage and flexible routes, we often cross borders towards clearer skies — where others won’t go.
And when the Northern Lights appear, you’ll stand under the Arctic night sky while your guide captures professional DSLR photos. Warm drinks, light snacks, and thermal clothing keep you safe and comfortable, even in –40°C.
Most other tours on the market last 3–4 hours. We stay out as long as it takes — usually 6–10 hours — until you succeed.
For over 400 years, our family has lived under the Arctic sky, passing down knowledge of its landscapes and weather. Today, Arctic GM combines this heritage with modern comfort and safety to deliver the world’s most successful Northern Lights experience. Also available in Rovaniemi, Levi & Kiruna.
Don’t leave your dream night to chance — join the Original Aurora Hunters™ in Tromsø and witness the Aurora Borealis the way it was meant to be seen.
