Review of Tromsø’s Northern Lights catamaran cruise, with practical advice on the boat, timing, Aurora guarantee, price, weather, and value.

“2 étoiles pour le bateau mais décevant car le bateau reste près des côtes et il reste beaucoup de lumière de la ville. Partir voir les aurores boréales avec un chasseur d’aurores boréales est plus efficace et offre plus d’opportunités pour en voir de très belles. Cette sortie reste un peu un « attrape touristes « .”
