Beautiful tour of the Trollfjord with competent and trained staff. Very good Italian guide, friendly and very nice who illustrated (in English) the peculiarities of the place and the underwater fauna that we saw with an underwater drone. The boat, very beautiful, stopped in all the places of interest making us enjoy the splendid tour to the fullest. Not to be missed!

Well organised trip with the guide, Maurizio, thinking of every detail. We knew it was not taken for granted to see the light, but we were lucky. What came as a bonus above my expectations, was that we were offered photos from the event to be sent by mail.

Eric was very knowledgeable of where to spot the lights from and very patient in wanting to stay as long as others wanted. He was an excellent photographer and made sure everyone got the best photo tips and photos throughout the night. Highly recommended!

Really good tour with Andrea who took us to the right spots and we saw the most beautiful display of lights. Highly recommend taking this tour if you are in Lofoten!

Guided tour was excellent, we enjoyed ourselves, and learned a lot about Lofoten and surrounding areas. Vessel was very nice and well kept.
