Going to view the Northern Lights?
Consider a local tour guide to make it extra special.
We highly recommend using local aurora guides whenever you are going to see the northern lights. You cannot beat local knowledge, because it is not so much finding the aurora, it is finding a good spot to view them from, and more often than not, only locals know these great places! So here is a comprehensive list of local tour guides in all the typical aurora countries in Europe. You should contact them directly.
If you are a tour guide and want to add yourself on this list, fill out this form and email it back to us. As with most things on this website, it’s free. If you want to say thanks, or if we send customers your way, you can donate of course.
BREAKING NEWS
Since making this page in 2013, we have since started our very own northern lights tours around the northern most town in the EU (70°N!)! You are welcome to come and stay in our cottages between the towns of Utsjoki and Nuorgam (officially the northern most town in the EU) in the far north of Finnish Lapland and come out with us PERSONALLY chasing the auroras each night.

We have a whole new website dedicated to the aurora tours. Visit:

In the event you cannot join us on our tours, I will leave all the information of other aurora guides in other destinations as it is (even though they are our now competitors), as auroras come 1st with us, business politics 2nd!

Aurora Service was set up by me (Tony). I am a computer programmer and aurora watcher, so I combined both to create this site to help my Northern Lights forecasting and viewing. The site has kept growing and now it is a great resource for Aurora chasers all over the world.
