As the year draws to a close, we’re ending it with a milestone we never expected to reach this quickly. Lights Over Lapland now has 2,000 TripAdvisor reviews, more than every other tour operator in Abisko combined, and we’re still proudly sitting at the #1 ranked experience in the region!
Not bad for a company that started with a couple of headlamps, a thermos, and a very optimistic view of Arctic weather.
We’re proud to be the only activity tour company in Abisko with a full admin team working year-round. That’s five people, including our founders, Chad and Linnea, who keep the lights on (pun fully intended) even when the midnight sun has replaced the Northern Lights.
If you’ve been dreaming of seeing the Northern Lights, stop waiting for “someday.” Because right now (or rather, this season) might be one of the best chances you’ll ever get.

When most people dream of seeing the Northern Lights, they picture deep winter with snow-covered trees, frozen lakes, and thick jackets pulled tight against the cold.
