Description

Good to Know

Join our local Sami guides to visit Abisko, one of the best places to see the northern lights. We will give you an enjoyable evening with 3-course dinner, where we talk about the Sami culture, nature, and the Northern Lights, a visit and guiding in the Abisko area to see and experience the spectacular Aurora Borealis, or depending on weather, a chase for the Northern Lights on the way back to Kiruna. On the way to Abisko we will pass several weather zones which makes it possible to get a glimpse of aurora even when it is more or less cloudy weather. We also provide you with tripods for your camera or mobile phone if you need.

Beverage

From Kiruna, we drive into the night by car. Our goal is to catch the northern lights, learn more about nature, local culture, and visit the famous Abisko. Outside the window, we see the stars, and if we are lucky, a hint of green auroras in the sky. 1.5 hours later, we are there for a three-course dinner down in the village of Abisko. We talk about nature, Sami culture, northern lights, and local history. We can never guarantee that we will see the aurora, but if the weather is good after dinner, we will take a walk in the Abisko area to experience the landscape and look for the northern lights. Our local guides are trained photo guides, so if you bring your camera, we will help you take photos. If the weather isn’t good in Abisko, we start driving back to Kiruna, and if we’re lucky, the sky clears up so we can stop to see the northern lights.

Amazing time!

This was one of the best experiences of my life and we didn’t even get to see the Northern Lights. Erika was amazing at sharing her stories of Sami life, her journey and the Swedish culture in the north. The drive to Abisko was filled with conversation and education in a friendly way. Dinner was amazing and Erika went out of her way to stop many times in an attempt to find the aurora borealis for us despite the heavy cloud cover. Sad we didn’t get to see the sky dance, but would 100% recomme...read more

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the journey from Kiruna to Abisko with Erika. It's wonderful that you appreciated to learn more about the Sami culture along the way. We're also glad you liked the traditional dinner! Even though you didn't get to see the northern lights dancing because of all the clouds, your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future. Kind regards

Nice dinner in Abisko

Yesterday our guide Ylva has brought us from Kiruna to Abisko, making us discover magnificent landscapes. Then we had a pleasant time talking about Sami people and enjoying a typical and very tasteful dinner. We recommend this experience.

Enjoyed our Abisko with...

Enjoyed our Abisko with dinner tour. Our guide Erica was really kind and helpful. She tried her best to help us spot Aurora but unfortunately the weather that day was not cooperating. We learnt a lot about Sami culture during the tour and she also provided us with useful photography and location tips.

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed the Abisko dinner tour and that Erica took good care of you. She always does her best to create a memorable experience – even when the weather doesn’t quite cooperate. We're glad you got to learn more about Sámi culture and that our photography tips were helpful. You're very welcome back to Abisko another time – hopefully under clearer skies!

Incredible experience...

Incredible experience start to finish; 3 course Dinner at Aurora Sky Station; Sami Culture Presentation and Northern Lights Chasing. Erica was incredible! We weren’t so lucky because the Aurora wasn’t ready to make an appearance but we tried for as long as we could. Unfortunately there was no activity in Abisko or Kiruna.

Thank you so much for your kind words! ✨ We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the three-course dinner, the Sami culture presentation, and the Northern Lights chase. Erica will be delighted to know she made your experience special! We're sorry that the Aurora didn’t appear this time, but we truly appreciate your patience and enthusiasm. Sometimes nature has its own plans, but we hope that next time you'll get to witness the magic of the Northern Lights! Wishing you all the best, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!
