Review Summary
People usually say that professional guides and photographers provide exceptional service and make genuine efforts to find clear skies for optimal viewing, with particular praise for communication and quick refunds when weather forces cancellations. However, travelers frequently report frustration with last-minute cancellations, delayed responses to refund requests, and the inherent challenge that Northern Lights visibility is never guaranteed regardless of tour quality—with some guests experiencing multiple consecutive cancellations during their stay. The most satisfied customers highlight guides' expertise, proactive communication before cancellations, and photographers who go extra distances to ensure a memorable experience, while dissatisfied customers emphasize the importance of choosing operators with transparent policies and responsive customer service, especially since weather conditions can be unpredictable even during peak Aurora season.
