Northern Lights Photo Chase
with See & Explore
About the tour
We start by checking the weather and aurora forecast together, then drive out of Longyearbyen to find the spots with the best chance of clear sky and Northern Lights.
The van is our base, so you can warm up between stops while we look for good places to photograph the aurora and the night sky. Even on quiet nights, the dark landscape around Longyearbyen gives great night photos.
A relaxed tour for anyone who loves photography.
Physical Requirements
Suitable for everyone. Wheelchair friendly on request (foldable wheelchair, and the guest needs to sit in a regular car seat).
