“Everything about the evening was fantastic. Robin was the perfect guide, encouraging us take in the quiet environment of the birch forest in the dark as we walked.

“Excellent experience! Jesus was a terrific guide, informative, friendly, and focused on seeing the Northern Lights. We had zero cloud cover but needed the other factors to fall into place. He was checking his app at dinner and asked if we wanted to skip desert as the conditions would soon be good (per the app). We all agreed and saw some spectacular lights! Even though it was early October and we were dressed warmly the winter suits he let us use were very welcome. As was the hot lingonberry tea!”
