Sweden's dynamic and historic capital city of Stockholm is surrounded by the renowned Stockholm Archipelago, which features over 24,000 islands and islets, extending into the Baltic Sea.

The adventure begins at the meeting point in Stockholm, where you and your small group will be greeted by an experienced Aurora guide. After a safety and itinerary briefing, you'll receive a headlamp equipped with a red beam for night vision. Next, you'll board the comfortable vehicle and be driven outside the city towards the rural areas surrounding Stockholm and some of the best places to observe the dancing colours of the Northern Lights!
Throughout the Northern Lights tour from Stockholm, you'll make several stops to view the awe-inspiring Aurora Borealis, savour the tranquillity of nature, and take amazing photos. In addition, your guide will share fun facts about the Northern Lights and is happy to answer any questions you may have. Nearing the end of the tour and weather permitting, you'll set out on a short walk to an observation point and will be treated to a crackling bonfire with Swedish Fika (hot beverages and pastries), an excellent way to warm up on cold winter nights in Sweden! Re-energized and relaxed, you'll be dropped off at the Stockholm Central Train Station (where trains and taxis are readily available), returning to your accommodations with cherished memories of this Northern Lights tour from Stockholm!
