# Tromso Northern Lights Tours and Tickets Compared

Eight real Tromso Northern Lights tours sit on this page, priced from **€35 to €194 per person**, sorted into four groups: Northern Lights Chases, Aurora Cruises, Photography Tours, and Cultural & Wildlife Combos. I've ordered them from the tours that actively hunt for clear sky to the ones that treat the aurora as a bonus alongside reindeer or huskies, since that difference matters more than price alone when you're picking one for a single evening.

## Which Tromso Northern Lights chase should you book?
Price and group size are what actually separate these four bus-based chases. The **Tromsø Northern Lights Unlimited Chase Tour** costs €35, runs 6 to 9 hours, and has no cap on how far the guide can drive, plus an onboard toilet for the long night. The **Tromsø Small-Group Aurora Chase** is €113, caps the minibus at 16 guests, and comes from an operator with over 25 years running this exact route. The **Tromsø Family-Run Aurora Minibus Tour** is €116 and adds homemade cake and live webcam tracking from a local couple's own operation. The **Tromsø Glass Bus Aurora Dinner Tour** is €125 and is the only one of the four built around a full hot dinner. I'd start with the unlimited chase if this is your only night to try.

- [Tromsø Northern Lights Unlimited Chase Tour](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-northern-lights-unlimited-chase/): From 35 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · 6 to 9 hours (evening) · Best for: Cheapest unlimited-range aurora chase
- [Tromsø Family-Run Aurora Minibus Tour](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-family-aurora-minibus-tour/): From 116 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 7 to 9 hours (evening) · Best for: Boutique family-run local operator
- [Tromsø Glass Bus Aurora Dinner Tour](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-glass-bus-aurora-dinner/): From 125 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 7 to 8 hours (evening) · Best for: Hot dinner and glass-roof viewing
- [Tromsø Small-Group Aurora Chase](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-small-group-aurora-chase/): From 113 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 8 hours (evening to after midnight) · Best for: Small group with 25+ years experience

## Is the Tromso aurora cruise better than a bus chase?
Only if you want to skip the long drive. The **Tromsø Evening Aurora Cruise** costs €111 and runs a tighter 3.5-hour window, from 20:00 to 23:30, sailing straight out of a Tromso city-centre dock instead of driving for hours to escape light pollution. It includes deck access and a heated indoor cabin with onboard toilets, but photos are not part of the standard fare the way they are on most bus chases, and a three-course meal is only added on the dinner-cruise option. I'd book this one for a short trip or if a long winding drive isn't how you want to spend the evening.

- [Tromsø Evening Aurora Cruise](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-evening-aurora-cruise/): From 111 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 3.5 hours (20:00 to 23:30) · Best for: Boat-based, no long drive required

## What does the Tromso Northern Lights photography tour add?
Hands-on instruction, not just a photo. The **Tromsø Northern Lights Photography Tour** costs €150, runs 6 to 8 hours, and is the only listing here built around teaching you to shoot the aurora yourself, with tripods, hand warmers and heated boot insoles included alongside locally made soup and hot drinks. Free professional photos in web resolution come on top of the lesson, so nothing is traded away to get the instruction. I'd pick this over a standard chase only if you're bringing a real camera and actually want to learn to use it in the dark.

- [Tromsø Northern Lights Photography Tour](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-northern-lights-photography-tour/): From 150 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 6 to 8 hours (evening) · Best for: Hands-on aurora photography coaching

## Which Tromso cultural combo pairs best with a Northern Lights chance?
Pick the animal, not the aurora odds, since neither actively chases clear sky. The **Tromsø Reindeer Sled, Sami Dinner and Aurora Chance** costs €194, runs 5 to 6 hours, and centres on feeding around 300 reindeer, a sled ride and a three-course Sami dinner with bidos. The **Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp with Dinner** costs €166, runs 4 to 5 hours, and gets you to around 200 Alaskan huskies in just a 30-minute transfer, followed by a warm bacalao dinner, though it does not include dog sledding. I'd choose between them based on whether you'd rather spend the evening with reindeer or huskies.

- [Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp with Dinner](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-northern-lights-husky-camp/): From 166 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 4 to 5 hours (evening) · Best for: Relaxed husky visit plus dinner
- [Tromsø Reindeer Sled, Sami Dinner and Aurora Chance](https://auroraborealistourtromso.com/tours/tromso-reindeer-sled-aurora-dinner/): From 194 EUR per person (Prices checked 2026-09-12, prices may vary) · Approx. 5 to 6 hours (evening) · Best for: Reindeer sledding plus a Sami dinner

## Compare all 8 Tromso Northern Lights tours
Every tour on this page sells a fixed evening departure, not a validity window, so the duration shown is the operator's own run time from pickup to drop-off rather than a ticket you can use across several days. Prices are the lowest published per-person fare checked on 2026-09-12 and can move with season and demand. The four Northern Lights Chases and the Photography Tour are true chase formats that drive until the guide finds clear sky, while the Evening Aurora Cruise sails from a fixed dock and the two Cultural & Wildlife Combos stay at one camp, which is the real reason to read the group headings above before sorting purely by price.

## Who runs northern lights tours in Tromso, and can you book them here?
Sixteen companies run northern lights tours or cruises around Tromso, based mostly in the compact city centre with a few further out in Tromsdalen, north Tromsoya and west Tromsoya. Chasing Lights leads on Google reviews, 807 of them at a 4.8 rating, ahead of Amazing Arctic's 708 and Northern Horizon's 634. The real split between them is departure point and format: most run bus based chases from downtown, two depart by boat from the harbour, and the rest sit on the edges of Tromsoya. I would start with the highest review counts before weighing format.

## What do these Tromso tours actually include?
Every fare buys transport to a viewing spot away from city light pollution and a guide or crew actively watching the sky, but none of them can include a guarantee of seeing the aurora, since that depends on solar activity and cloud cover on the night. Hot drinks are standard across all eight, while a full hot meal is only built into the Glass Bus Aurora Dinner Tour, the Reindeer Sled tour and the Husky Camp tour. Free professional photos come with most chases and the photography tour, but not the standard Evening Aurora Cruise, where a three-course dinner is instead an option selected at checkout on the dinner-cruise upgrade.

## How should you choose between these Tromso aurora tours?
Start from what you want the evening to feel like, not from the price alone. On a single night where seeing the lights matters most, I'd book one of the four Northern Lights Chases or the photography tour, since both formats actively drive to find clear sky. If a long bus ride puts you off, take the Evening Aurora Cruise instead. On a second or third night, once you've already tried a dedicated chase, the reindeer sled or husky camp combos are the better pick, since they fill the wait with a genuine cultural or animal experience rather than a second attempt at the same drive.

### Cheapest way in
The Tromso Northern Lights Unlimited Chase Tour costs 35 euro, the lowest price among the eight tours on this hub, and comes with free professional photos and no distance cap on the chase. If budget is your main concern, I would start here before looking at any pricier option.

### Shortest night out
The Tromso Evening Aurora Cruise runs the shortest window on this hub, about 3.5 hours from 20:00 to 23:30, sailing straight from a Tromso city centre dock instead of a long drive. I would pick this one if you want to be back at your hotel before midnight.

### Most included in one trip
The Tromso Reindeer Sled, Sami Dinner and Aurora Chance bundles reindeer feeding, a sled ride and a three course Sami dinner with the aurora search, more components than any other tour on this hub at 194 euro. I would choose this one if you want a full evening of activity rather than a single purpose chase.

### Learning to shoot the aurora
The Tromso Northern Lights Photography Tour is the only listing on this hub built around hands on camera instruction, with tripods and heated boot insoles included at 150 euro. I would send a traveler with a real camera here rather than to any of the plainer chase tours.

### Highest Google review count
Chasing Lights has more Google reviews than any other northern lights operator in Tromso on this page, 807 at a 4.8 rating, well ahead of Amazing Arctic's 708 and Northern Horizon's 634. If sheer review volume is how you judge a company before anything else, this is the name to search for directly.

## The operators, by departure area in and around Tromso

### Tromso city centre: the main cluster of operators

#### Northern Horizon

- What they run: Small group northern lights tours
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 5.0 (634 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Vestregata 42, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://northernhorizon.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJdQFb6I7FxEURdVTya9O9BKE

Northern Horizon holds a perfect 5.0 from 634 Google reviews, more than any other operator with a flawless rating on this list. It markets itself as a small group northern lights tour, and its Vestregata base sits in the city centre with most other operators here. I would send a traveler here first if a spotless rating matters more than anything else.

#### Amazing Arctic

- What they run: Northern lights tours around Tromso
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.9 (708 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Kirkegata 2, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.amazingarctic.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJT7nMyc_FxEURDihtRXtdIPo

Amazing Arctic has 708 Google reviews at 4.9, the second highest review count on this page after Chasing Lights. It runs out of Kirkegata in the city centre, within walking distance of most other operators here. With that much review volume behind a near perfect score, I would put it on a shortlist alongside Northern Horizon for anyone comparing by reputation alone.

#### Spiritinthesky.Northern Lights & Fjord tours.

- What they run: Northern lights and fjord tours
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 5.0 (206 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Skolegata 43, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://spiritinthesky.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJozvGjlLExEURCJ7B-MBfiDE

Spiritinthesky pairs northern lights trips with fjord tours, based on Skolegata in the city centre. It holds a perfect 5.0 from 206 Google reviews, a smaller base than Northern Horizon or Amazing Arctic but still a flawless score. I would consider this one if a fjord sightseeing element alongside the aurora search appeals more than a pure chase format.

#### Chasing Lights

- What they run: Northern lights chase tours around Tromso
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.8 (807 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Storgata 64A, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.chasinglights.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJvyIb1fLExEUR5PpZqLXn2Fw

Chasing Lights has more Google reviews than any other operator on this page, 807 at a 4.8 rating. Its base on Storgata puts it in the same compact city centre cluster as most of the operators here. With that volume of reviews, I would treat it as the default comparison point against any other operator's smaller review count.

#### The Green Adventure

- What they run: Sightseeing and northern lights tours
- Google Maps: Sightseeing tour agency
- Google rating: 4.9 (254 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Dramsvegen 72, 9009 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://www.thegreenadventure.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJBea79Y24xEURsiAV8pXUjmo

The Green Adventure runs as a sightseeing tour agency rather than a dedicated chase operator, with a 4.9 rating from 254 Google reviews. Its Dramsvegen address sits a short way from the main Kirkegata and Storgata cluster downtown. I would look at this one if a broader sightseeing angle on top of the aurora search suits you better than a single purpose chase.

#### Enjoy the Arctic

- What they run: Arctic sightseeing and northern lights tours
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.9 (242 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Grimsbyvegen 60, 9011 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.enjoythearctic.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJ7VpE17LFxEURCcrrPMjJEpw

Enjoy the Arctic sits at 4.9 from 242 Google reviews, close in both rating and review count to The Green Adventure. Its Grimsbyvegen address is a few minutes further from the Storgata and Kirkegata cluster than most other operators here. I would weigh this one mainly on pickup convenience against the more centrally based names on this list.

#### Arctic Circle Tours Tromsø

- What they run: Northern lights and Arctic Circle tours
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.9 (229 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Skolegata 24, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.actt.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJXX-TggHFxEUR2V6ckVKM-Vk

Arctic Circle Tours Tromso holds a 4.9 rating from 229 Google reviews, operating out of Skolegata in the same city centre block as Spiritinthesky and Northern Horizon. The name points to Arctic Circle themed tours alongside the northern lights search, though this page has no matched product to confirm specific inclusions. I would ask directly what the Arctic Circle angle adds before booking.

#### Hello Tromsø

- What they run: Sightseeing and northern lights tours in Tromso
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.8 (277 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Storgata 44, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://hellotromso.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJ-Te6i6_FxEUR4EQ9iDUJxWs

Hello Tromso combines sightseeing tour agency and tour operator listings on Google, with a 4.8 rating from 277 reviews. It is based on Storgata, the same street as Chasing Lights, in the heart of the downtown cluster. Note it lists Sunday as closed on Google, unlike most other operators on this page that show daily hours. I would call ahead before planning a Sunday booking.

#### Northern Lights Safari

- What they run: Northern lights safari tours and transport
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.6 (257 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Skansegata 9, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://northernlightssafari.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJVaV6ZADFxEURuJdVgKvK_oM

Northern Lights Safari lists itself across several categories on Google, including outdoor activity organiser, sightseeing tour agency and transportation service, alongside a 4.6 rating from 257 reviews. Its Skansegata address keeps it in the downtown cluster with most other operators here. The wide spread of categories suggests a broader operation than a single chase bus, so I would ask what format a specific tour uses before booking.

#### GuideGunnar Tromsø

- What they run: Northern lights and Arctic excursion tours
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.6 (99 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Kaigata 4, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://guidegunnar.no/ac/northern-lights-arctic-excursions/northern-lights
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJjVMTmrDFxEURsGEu5DSCYEg

GuideGunnar Tromso runs a dedicated northern lights and Arctic excursions page on its own site, based on Kaigata in the harbour side of the city centre. It holds a 4.6 rating from 99 Google reviews, a mid sized base compared to the busier names on this page. I would treat it as a smaller, more personal alternative to the higher review count operators above.

#### Northern Shots Tours AS

- What they run: Northern lights tours around Tromso
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.4 (508 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Roald Amundsens plass 1A, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.northernshotstours.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJQaPGpqzFxEURqCBlybeOyUQ

Northern Shots Tours AS has 508 Google reviews, the fifth highest count on this page, though its 4.4 rating is the lowest among the operators kept here. It lists a wheelchair accessible car park at its Roald Amundsens plass address, a detail none of the other operators on this page note. I would weigh the high review volume against the comparatively lower score before choosing between this and a higher rated alternative.

### Tromso harbour and pier: boat departures

#### Rødne Fjord Cruise whale safari and Northern Lights cruise

- What they run: Boat cruises: whale safari and northern lights
- Google Maps: Sightseeing tour agency
- Google rating: 4.7 (161 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Nerstranda, 4008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: https://rodne.no/en/#f-tromso
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJzdvmulbFxEURSM5kIGJ_Gr8

Rodne runs boat cruises rather than bus chases, combining a whale safari angle with its Northern Lights cruise out of Nerstranda near the harbour. It holds a 4.7 rating from 161 Google reviews and is closed on weekends, unlike most of the bus based operators on this list. I would choose this one over a bus chase if staying on the water appeals more than driving inland for dark sky.

#### Polar Adventures Tromso

- What they run: Boat, dogsled and northern lights tours from the pier
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 4.5 (570 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Front Pier, Killengreens gate 7-11, 9008 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://polaradventures.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJMxehEa3FxEURaCwNLt2nKQA

Polar Adventures Tromso covers the widest range of formats on this list, with Google categories spanning boat rental, boat tours, dogsled rides, a fishing camp and whale watching alongside its northern lights listing. It has 570 Google reviews, the fourth highest count here, at a 4.5 rating, and departs from the Front Pier in the harbour area. I would look here if you want to combine the aurora search with a different outdoor activity.

### Tromsdalen, across the bridge from the city centre

#### Arctic World Tromsø

- What they run: Bus based sightseeing and northern lights tours
- Google Maps: Sightseeing tour agency
- Google rating: 5.0 (95 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Myrvegen 40A . 9020, 9008 Tromsdalen, Norway
- Website: https://xn--arcticworldtroms-0xb.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJvTVEAxfFxEURtvVrJ4CwHAs

Arctic World Tromso is based in Tromsdalen, across the bridge from the city centre where almost every other operator on this page sits, and lists itself as both a sightseeing and bus tour agency. It holds a perfect 5.0 from 95 Google reviews, a smaller base than the top names here but still flawless. I would pick this one if you are staying on the Tromsdalen side of the bridge.

### North Tromsoya, outside the city centre

#### Greenlander Tromsø

- What they run: Northern lights tours from north Tromsoya
- Google Maps: Tour operator
- Google rating: 5.0 (194 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Ringvegen 333, 9017 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.greenlander.no/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJ5Wnsg_s7xUURoKDya22ATGM

Greenlander Tromso holds a perfect 5.0 from 194 Google reviews. Its Ringvegen address sits well north of the compact downtown cluster where most other operators on this page are based, so pickup logistics may differ if you are staying in the city centre. I would check their pickup details closely before booking if location convenience matters to you.

### West Tromsoya, outside the city centre

#### Aurora Capital Tours Tromsø As

- What they run: Northern lights tours, based on west Tromsoya
- Google Maps: Tour agency
- Google rating: 4.8 (55 reviews, 2026-10-22)
- Wanny Woldstads veg 129, 9013 Tromsø, Norway
- Website: http://www.auroracapitaltours.com/
- Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/?q=place_id:ChIJe-3TFcjFxEUReZIdXNvfK-4

Aurora Capital Tours is based on Wanny Woldstads veg, on the west side of Tromsoya away from the downtown cluster where most other operators here are based. It holds a 4.8 rating, though from just 55 Google reviews, the smallest base on this list. It is closed on weekends, so I would only consider this one for a weekday booking, and check pickup logistics if you are staying downtown.

## How we built this list
This list comes from public Google Maps listings captured on 2026-10-22, filtered to companies actually running northern lights tours, cruises or excursions around Tromso. Closed listings and any with fewer than 20 reviews were dropped, along with off category places like shops, hotels and rental only businesses, and duplicate listings sharing one booking desk address. The remaining operators are ordered by a review weighted rating, not raw star count alone. We did not contact any operator directly, and every rating and review count shown is Google's own, not ours.

### Who we left out
A few lower review general tour agency listings were left out to keep this table focused on established operators. Four listings sharing the identical Kirkegata 2 address appeared to be sibling or duplicate booking desk listings rather than four separate independent operators, so only the most reviewed of them, Amazing Arctic, was kept.

## How does booking a Tromso aurora tour work?
Every listing on this page completes on GetYourGuide, which resells these operators' tickets, and this site earns a commission when you book through it. You choose a date and pay on GetYourGuide's checkout, then receive a mobile ticket that your guide scans at the meeting point, so nothing needs printing. Most of these tours allow free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure, and the exact window is shown before you pay. Checkout displays the operator's live price, which is why every figure on this page carries the checked date shown above.

## FAQs
### Which Tromso Northern Lights tour has a toilet on board?
The Tromsø Northern Lights Unlimited Chase Tour runs a larger bus with an onboard toilet, a real convenience on a chase that can last six to nine hours with no scheduled stops. Smaller minibus tours in this comparison do not list an onboard bathroom.

### Which Tromso tours include a full hot dinner, not just snacks?
Three do: the Glass Bus Aurora Dinner Tour serves a hot dinner and marshmallows, the Reindeer Sled tour serves a three-course Sami dinner including bidos, and the Husky Camp tour serves a warm bacalao dish. The four other chases and the photography tour serve hot drinks and snacks rather than a full meal.

### Does the Husky Camp tour include dog sledding?
No. It is a visit and relaxed evening with around 200 Alaskan huskies, including cuddling and puppies when present, but the listing does not include actual dog sledding as part of the experience.

### Do any of these tours need a child car seat?
The Photography Tour requires a car seat by law for children under 120cm, with a booster available on request above that height. The Reindeer Sled tour notes limited booster seats on its bus, so bring your own seat for a young child on either one.

### Which tour skips the long bus drive out of Tromso?
The Evening Aurora Cruise departs straight from a dock in Tromso city centre and sails for 3.5 hours, with no hour-plus drive first the way the bus-based chases usually need to reach a dark, clear spot.

### Can I add a meal to the Tromso aurora cruise?
Yes, a three-course meal is included only on the dinner-cruise upgrade of the Evening Aurora Cruise. The standard cruise fare does not include a warm meal, just warm and cold drinks on board.

### Which Tromso tour teaches you to photograph the aurora yourself?
The Northern Lights Photography Tour is the only one built around hands-on camera instruction, covering settings and composition, with tripods and headlamps provided. Note the tripods do not fit phones, so bring your own small phone mount if that is your main camera.

### Which chase tour has the longest operator track record?
The Tromsø Small-Group Aurora Chase comes from an operator running for over 25 years with more than 100,000 guests hosted, the longest stated history among the four Northern Lights Chases on this page.
