Review of Tromso’s Aurora Cruise with 3-course dinner, covering food, boat comfort, Northern Lights chances, value, timing, and practical tips.

“Very friendly, well informed and helpful crew. We were fortunate to catch the Northern Lights, twice, over the 3 hour cruise - but only through the camera of our phones, and not the naked eye. The first 3 courses of the dinner were average, the 3rd (panna cotta dessert), excellent! Definitely a worthwhile experience!”
