Aurora chase by snowmobile with dinner

Experience the Arctic wilderness at night and enjoy a snowmobile tour in Alta as you search for the Northern Lights.   

This evening begins with a traditional Sami dinner of "bidos", a hearty reindeer stew, at Bjørnfjell Mountain Lodge. After the meal, you will meet your guide in the lobby, get dressed in a thermal snowsuit, mittens, boots and helmet and receive a brief driving instruction and safety briefing. 

As you ride through the Finnmark tundra, far from any light pollution, your guide will take the group to areas with the best conditions for viewing the Northern Lights. When the sky is clear, you may enjoy the sight of the aurora dancing above. Two people will share a snowmobile and can switch drivers during the tour. If you wish to ride your own snowmobile for the entire duration, please let us know at the time of booking. Please note that the single driver supplement is mandatory if travelling alone.
