Description

Experience one of the best views of the magical Northern Lights with our “Snowmobile taxi” tour to the backcountry surrounding Ilulissat.

You do not need to know how to drive a snowmobile to enjoy this tour. Simply sit back in the “cab” and let us do all the work.

Leaving Ilulissat, we will follow a dogsled track into the mountains. Depending on the Northern Lights, we may stop at several different sites so you can take in one of the highlights of the Arctic Winter. Far from the light pollution of Ilulissat, these dark locations offer the most striking panoramas of nature’s spectacular winter light show and are the perfect places to tell local stories about the Aurora Borealis.

Remember that we cannot guarantee that you will see the Northern Lights on any particular night. Some nights we are lucky, and on others we are not. However, venturing out into the deep Arctic night is an experience in itself, and if it becomes too cloudy, we will do our best to reschedule.

What to bring

Warm winter wear. Ideally, you should dress in layers: at least one thermal underwear layer (top and bottom), activity layer (e.g. hiking pants and shirt), and insulation layer (e.g. fleece or down jacket). The outer layer must be proper winter gear which typically has lots of insulation and is windproof. Think ski jacket and pants if you come from a warmer climate.
Warm hat, thick windproof gloves, buff or scarf
Insulated winter boots
Camera with extra batteries (the cold drains the batteries faster)

Additional Information

Pick-up is not included. Please meet us at the departure point (see pictures)
If you are unsuccessful at seeing the Northern Lights on your scheduled tour, we will do our best to reschedule you for another night.
