It's not only wonderful to see the expansion of Northern Lights but also come across enthusiastic guide, Thomas. His perfect arrangement also makes the night unforgettable. Thanks for the hot chocolate and cookies to save my life in the freezing night. He is also very knowledgeable to patiently explain the Aurora and geographical details of Norway. He provide great efforts to take photos for every participant in the front of the Aurora and also teach how to use their own mobile to take most beautiful photos. I have no doubts to recommend to my friends who want to trace or hunt the Aurora in Tromso. Excellent! Many thanks

Great 4.0
overall the itinerary and guide Elsa was not bad. nice lovely scenery. the bus was a little too cramped though. we were packed like sardines. Lunch was a cold sandwich bread roll with ham/cheese or shrimp or curry chicken … nothing fancy. They ran out of hot water, so didn’t really get a hot drink or soup.

I actually booked the tour because of the aurora offer in the description. Unfortunately, until the end of the tour, the metric for aurora sighting was poor and we ended up not going for the sighting at all. Despite that unlucky part, this tour gives amazing experience for travelers who plan to visit Tasmania for the first time. We don’t speak Chinese at all, but tour guides always give English explanation in addition to pre-recorded English audio guide of each destination. If you are hunting for aurora sighting, make sure you’ve checked the possibility of seeing the aurora Australis before booking. Otherwise, just enjoy the beauty of Tasmania as covered by this tour.

It's not only wonderful to see the expansion of Northern Lights but also come across enthusiastic guides, Joana and Diego, of Jeshua Tours. The transfer and the driver is excellent. Their perfect arrangement also makes the night unforgettable. Thanks for the hot chocolate and cookies, and camp fire 🔥 to save my life in the freezing night. I have no doubts to recommend to my friends who want to trace or hunt the Aurora in Tromso. Excellent! Many thanks.

The hotel is right in the downtown area, within walking distance of many attractions and day tour meeting points. There are restaurants and convenience stores nearby, and a paid parking lot is also very close by. Highly recommended 👍 (Just a reminder: the hotel prohibits seafood, and hot water must be collected from the lobby as there is no kettle in the room, but these are not major issues at all).

Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun

Activities are typically cheapest in March (around USD 145), roughly 32% below the priciest month in May, so travelling in March can mean lower activity costs and may also align with the quieter season shown by the demand chart. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

How far ahead should you book?

Plan ahead so you don’t miss out

1 daysLast-minute

Most travellers book about 7 days ahead, so with peaks in January it’s wise to lock in key activities sooner rather than later to avoid sold-out slots. Based on Klook booking data, February 2026 – July 2026.

What to know before visiting Tromso

Quick overview of Tromsø and what to expect

Tromsø is a compact Arctic city best known for outdoor and winter-focused experiences. Tours, outdoor & sports activities and cruises lead bookings, and demand swings strongly through the year with a pronounced winter peak.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data shows demand peaks in January and is lowest around June, with spring and summer months noticeably quieter. Prices drift through the year too: historically March is among the typically cheapest months on Klook while May has appeared as one of the priciest. For lower prices and smaller crowds, travel in late winter to early spring; for full winter atmosphere and the busiest scene, aim for January. Note that demand and prices don’t always move in lockstep here — the busiest month is mid-winter while some of the highest prices can occur in late spring.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers from Australia book around a week in advance, with last-minute bookings still possible a day or so out and earlier planners locking in about a month ahead. If you’re flexible, booking short-lived activities a few days before travel works well; if you’re visiting in January (the peak), allow extra planning time to secure popular tours and cruises. Use Klook to compare available dates and secure the experiences that suit your schedule.
