Sweden · SWEDISH LAPLAND TOURS

“Amazing - highly recommended! It worths 100%! We like our guide Onur a lot! They were very professional and enthusiastic about their jobs. Despite having an unlucky weather day, they drove us to places without clouds so that we can see. And we did!!! Although app says the tour is for 3 hours, we spent 5 hours to be able to see better. They really prioritise your happiness and keep going until you are content. They maximised their efforts for us to see the lights on a low chance day. Much appreciated! Also they took many photos. Our photos look amazing, thank you Lights of Vikings Team!!! We will come…”
