Van comfortable, heated and with the possibility to admire the aurora both from the windows and from the roof. Ivar, very professional and attentive to the needs of all people present.

Join Rampen in Bodø for a 3 to 5 hour Northern Lights chase in a group of no more than seven. Guides explain forecasts, clothing, and camera settings before taking you to dark woodland and coastal viewing spots. Pickup is available at Wood Hotel, and Svein may be your warm, funny guide.

“We only had two nights in Bodø but wanted to make sure we had the best chance of seeing the northern lights. I booked with 24 hours notice and thankfully this company and Svein our guide accepted. Svein messaged us saying there was a good chance of seeing the lights early and if we were free we could be picked up sooner- so of course we jumped at the chance! We visited a couple of spots, in the woods and on the beaches away from light pollution. We saw lights almost immediately but decided to keep going in hopes of them getting brighter. We stopped for hot chocolate and tea…”

Leave Bodø at 7:00 pm on Brim Explorer’s three-hour northern lights cruise. A guide, sometimes Max, explains the aurora and points out activity in the sky. The hybrid-electric ship offers a quieter ride, free Wi-Fi, tap water, and a café selling hot drinks and snacks.

“Ein perfektes Nordlicht-Erlebnis. Gigantisch was sich am Himmel abgespielt hat. Nordlichtbogen von Horizont bis Horizont, tanzendes Nordlicht in allen Farben. Nach fast 2 Stunden an Deck mit Fotos über Fotos muss man sich auswählen. Der Tourguide war selbst fasziniert und hat sehr stimmungsvoll und voller Begeisterung erklärt. Das ist definitiv die beste Nordlichttour in Bodo. Alles perfekt. Ich komme garantiert wieder.”
