Embark on an exciting Northern Lights chase in Bodø, one of the northernmost cities in Norway!

Bodø is located in Nordland County, Norway, just north of the Arctic Circle. Known for its stunning natural surroundings, cultural attractions, and Arctic charm, Bodø has become a key hub for visitors exploring northern Norway. Witnessing the Northern Lights in Bodø is also very common due to its northernly position.

You'll begin your Northern Lights hunt in Bodø by meeting the experienced guide at the starting point in the city. After a quick safety and itinerary briefing, you and your group (a maximum of 8 participants) will board the comfortable bus. Then, the Northern Lights chase from Bodø begins! The local guide is very knowledgeable and will track the aurora forecast in advance to find the best spots for Northern Lights sightings. You'll drive away from the harsh city lights into the vast open wilderness.

As you drive away from the cloud cover, the polar night sky will start to light up with twinkling stars. You'll drive past mountains and the inky sea, before arriving at the best viewing spot in the middle of nature. Then, you'll leave the bus and step out into the cold winter air. If you're lucky, the magical Northern Lights will appear above you! As you admire the dancing colours and capture some memorable photos, the guide will share insights and stories about Bodø and this natural phenomenon. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate will also be served to keep you warm. After your unforgettable Northern Lights tour in Bodø, you'll return to the starting point.

Experience the mesmerising Northern Lights on this guided tour in Bodø, an unmissable adventure while visiting northern Norway!
