The best think I can say about Greenlander is “WOW!!!”. They absolutely will do everything in their power to find the Aurora for you regardless of the weather and driving conditions. We booked two consecutive nights with Greenlander and the weather was wholly challenging both nights, including hard snow throughout the day for the second tour. Both Matteo and Markus consulted multiple web sites and used their expertise to move us to locations where the skies would be clear enough to give us a good possibility of seeing the lights. Thanks to their efforts we saw the Northern Lights both nights. The nature of the lights was different each night and I was utterly transfixed. It was great of Matteo to provide an explanation of the mechanics behind the lights and the colors produced while we were waiting for full darkness.
Arrangements for both tours were perfectly executed, even with Markus reaching out with the horrid weather on the second night to see if we would be available earlier to drive to Finland where chances of seeing the lights were at least a possibility (we had GREAT viewings!!) They provide tripods, boots and Arctic suits for your comfort. The campfire, warm drinks and the warm soup are welcome additions to the adventure but the main feature of the evening are the Northern Lights. I will forever be grateful to Markus and Matteo for their knowledge and diligent efforts to put is in the right location to experience a wonder I’ve dreamed of since childhood. While I took photos I will treasure, the photos provided by your guide will blow you away. (see Markus' photos attached) Excellent experience all around.
