Explore the Sommarøy Archipelago and chase the Northern Lights on a guided tour from Tromsø. Enjoy a scenic drive, visit landmarks, and stay warm with a bonfire and hot drinks.
Meet your driver and guide at your designated Tromsø meeting point. Following a brief introduction to the day's itinerary, board a comfortable vehicle, ready to begin this "Dual Wonder" journey.  Depart Tromsø and head west, driving across the scenic island of Kvaløya (Whale Island). The drive itself is a visual feast, taking you past snow-covered mountains and deep fjords. Make stops at unique fjord locations along the way for photo opportunities.  Cross the bridge to reach the Sommarøy Archipelago, famously nicknamed the "Arctic Caribbean." Arrive during the Arctic winter's unique "blue hour" or twilight, and have time to stroll along its signature white-sand beaches, admiring the magnificent dusk panorama formed by the turquoise waters and surrounding islands.  After exploring, begin the return drive toward the Tromsø city area. Continue to visit landmarks such as the Arctic Cathedral and Tromsø Bridge, and then return to the meeting point.  As night completely descends, the true magic begins. Head to areas surrounding Tromsø that are free from city light pollution, offering the darkest skies ideal for Northern Lights viewing. Your guide will track the weather and aurora forecasts to lead you on a chase over the next few hours, maximizing your chances of witnessing the Northern Lights dancing across the sky (weather permitting).  If conditions allow, build a warm bonfire and enjoy hot water, ensuring you stay comfortable while waiting for and admiring the aurora display. Following a memorable night, commence the journey back. Relax in the warm vehicle and reflect on the evening's beauty.
