i saw the most spectacular display of lights on to of Fjellheisen on nov 1 2024. is was an oh my god moment as the sky blew up with a dazzling display of colors.
So this again shows that it is probably better to chase the northern lights by one self (and spending that money better for a dog sledding tour ;). Thank you for this nice video!
She was saying as soon as it gets to like -8, you have to be careful because the cold seeps in very quickly then. So don't take your gloves off and don't stay idle for too long.
Thanks for watching my video. I've just tried the link in the description and it takes me straight to the tour I've booked with reviews. Maybe it was a glitch, so let me know if it still does not work for you. Update: There was an issue with the short url as it would sometimes take you to the exact tour and sometimes to a search page, so I've updated the description with the correct link now.

Emotional watching this! Did you see them in UK on 10/11 May? Best night of my life but still going to make the trip to Tromso with my dad who missed seeing them!!!
I didn't even know about it until a few days later but I have the whole experience engraved in my memory from the trip. Your dad will surely enjoy this. Keep warm!!
It's Enter Amalie Hotel which is 2 mins walk from Radisson Blu where most excursion pick ups are done. The people on the reception were really nice and helpful and that's the only budget hotel that served breakfast (hot, not take away types) that I found. Room was clean and warm too. I went in Dec 2023 so if you want to know anything else, ask away while it's still fresh in my mind :)
Ur video is soo amazing 💙 and I’m planning to go in this month November will northern light visible this month and I can’t control cold is possible how is climate and how can we control with it?
What was the camera equipment that you used? Was it just an IPhone camera? Tripod? What was the exposure settings to capture the lights? How much did you spend on transport?
I used the DJI Pocket 3 to film. If you have a recent smartphone, you'll get good photos but with video, it's more tricky as you're filming in pretty much pitch black and you can't use long exposure. I've had to denoise the aurora footage when I was on the plane and the excursion. Check the link in the description to see which excursion I booked and what the costs are now.
Wow it is amazing 🎉 I am planning to travel to Tromso just to see northern lights with my husband and 6 years old daughter. Do you think chasing aurora will be suitable for my daughter? And i think this will be our only chance to travel for northern lights so which month do you suggest for tromso? I guess you had some tips while you were there 😊 thanks.
To maximise your chances of seeing the auroras, it's better to travel during the winter months. In my video, you'll see how cold & windy it gets walking in absolute darkness under heavy snow away from city lights. The excursion lasts around 6hrs and you're idle most of the time looking at the sky, so those are things to consider when bringing your daughter. Dress like you're going to the North Pole and go with a tour where professional photos can be taken if you're not good with adjusting camera settings manually. All the best :)
When I was making the video, I actually wondered how many people would notice this. It highlights how slippery it can get and ideally you need shoes with a good grip. You certainly deserve a medal for your attention to detail :)
this is a great video! i love how you decide to travel to norway to see the northern lights, and you get to see it several times!
It seems the universe has a way to make the things you wish from the bottom of your heart to come true.

Thank you. Do you have anything that's overdue as well?
Agreed
So this again shows that it is probably better to chase the northern lights by one self (and spending that money better for a dog sledding tour ;). Thank you for this nice video!
Dog sledding was so much fun for me, definitely recommended. I have a video on it that I will put up soon.
@@fougiss Awesome! Please share soon :)
What a beautiful video.. I’ve been wanting to go to… you’ve made me remiss I can do a little solo trip too thanks 😊
Go for it, it's an incredible experience!
Thanks for sharing this video! Im flying next month to see the northern lights 😍
That is going to be a good holiday, do wrap up warm!!
Thanks for the vid! What month did you go?
Tjats preety good reason in my opinion
Do you have anything that's long overdue on your bucket list as well?
Finding kania the mushrum that's taste like meat
Beautiful
Thank you :)
Just came back last night...suddenly I miss the place 😢😢
Hopefully you have some really nice memories of the auroras :)
on your northern lights tour, what was the full thing your guide said: "anything below 8 (degrees)....." ? It would be interesting to know. Thanks!
She was saying as soon as it gets to like -8, you have to be careful because the cold seeps in very quickly then. So don't take your gloves off and don't stay idle for too long.
must be fun
It was a nice experience just very cold though. Have you been?
@@fougiss yeah looks like it, nope, never been to europe
Beautiful video. I’m planning to go in Late January. 21st to 27th..
Will it be a good time?
The cold months are usually good but sometimes clouds affect visibility and it's hard to predict when that'll happen.
nice video man
Thanks!
Can you see the aurora in Svalbard?
Definitely but it depends on the time of the year that you travel and how clear the sky is on the day of your tour.
nice video, I'll be there on Dec 18th!
That's the perfect xmas gift to yourself :)
Can I stay on the top as long as I want,let say 2-3 hours?
You can stay as long as you want but the last cable car return to the bottom of the hill is at 23:30 or midnight, so make sure you don't miss it!
How much did it cost you sir , I real wanna experience the same one day
Great video! Cheers
You're welcome :)
Hi can you share the exact aurora tour you’ve taken ? I tried the link, too many packages to look at. Tks 👍

Hey there! The link you’ve shared still doesn’t show the exact tour you’ve bought.

6:40 What the BG music
Flight of the inner bird.
@@fougiss Thanks Alot☺

Ur video is soo amazing 💙 and I’m planning to go in this month November will northern light visible this month and I can’t control cold is possible how is climate and how can we control with it?
I'm late to reply but I hope you managed to see the beautiful colours of the auroras :)
Were there restaurants and supermarket near your hotel?
Yes, everything was 5-10 mins walk, including the bus stop for the airport shuttle.
What was the camera equipment that you used? Was it just an IPhone camera? Tripod? What was the exposure settings to capture the lights? How much did you spend on transport?
I used the DJI Pocket 3 to film. If you have a recent smartphone, you'll get good photos but with video, it's more tricky as you're filming in pretty much pitch black and you can't use long exposure.

I think using cable cars to see Aurora is a good idea and cheaper. Is that very windy on the top?
In December when I went, it was very windy and cold but there's a shop at the top where you can take shelter and have a hot drink.
Amazing! What month is this?
December :)
Nice 😃 What camera did you film with ?
Osmo Pocket 3.
What camera did you use? its so nice ♥
Thank you - it's the Osmo Pocket 3.
Wow! When was your visit?
Dec 2023, are you planning a trip there too?
Which month is this?
When did you go? Mid February?
I went in December.
What month is this ? I am travelling in mid Oct wondering what the odds for me.
It was the first week of December. I highly recommend you do the husky dog sledding too, it was an incredible experience for me.
@@fougiss Do you have any recommendations? I am planning to do the same with wifey :)
I just booked my trip to do the same in February 2025😊❤️
That's awesome :) What other excursions are you thinking of doing?
I’m going in Feb as well 👍🏼✨
ME TOO!!!

The snow sound is very annoying
I'm sorry you feel this way but I included as many natural sounds as I could to give people a better idea of what it's like to chase the auroras.
