Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Joey and Dimitri were simply AMAZING!!! Dimitri and Joey worked superb together each having their own role at making sure everyone was well taken care of. Joey was super talented at taking photos, and showing you how to take beautiful photos yourself. Both were patient, yet full of life. I have never had tour guides as spectacular as they were! Thank you so much Joey and Dimitri, Renee’ Mc

Adventure of a lifetime. We are a group of friends who have been traveling together for 50 years. Given our age, we were not able to walk through the snow to the yurts. Julian did an amazing job altering the tour to accommodate our needs. We had a wonderful time and were fortunate to see the lights jumping! One word of caution - do not expect to see green lights with the naked eye. Nevertheless, the white/gray light is incredible to watch shimmering and jumping. More kudos to Julian for keeping us so well informed and accommodated. He is a wonderful guide.

On 5 December 2023. I visited Abisko and joined the Ultimate Aurora Photo Adventure tour operated by Lights Over Lapland.

Mr..Sach (Sacharias) and Mr.Julien were our tour guides and introduced us how to use a pro camera properly to take photos of the amazing aurora. They are photographers, so it's easy for me to take many nice aurora pictures. I recommend this tour to anyone who would like to take nice aurora photos back home.

I enjoyed a great walk with our guide Michael. From the Abisko starting point of Kungsleden he led us along the canyon and birdhill down to the Torneträsk. We saw a lot of wildlife tracks but unfortunately could not see a moose in the delta. Nevertheless, it was a special experience and a very nice guided walk in the Abisko National Park. Thank you again, Michael.

I absolutely enjoyed joining The Ultimate Aurora Photo Adventure with our guide Michelle! Michelle did a fantastic job in helping us set up the cameras, finding good motives and feeling well as a group. In front of the Sami camp fire we got to know a lot of details about the Northern Lights and had the obligatory warm Lingonberry Juice. All in all, I had a fantastic time and will bring some nice pictures back home. I can highly recommend this activity and a huge shout out to Michelle again!

This was an awesome experience. Julien was a great and knowledgeable guide.

We had to wait a bit for the sky to clear but when it did it was completely worth it. Would recommend booking this trip!

We booked the trip in hope to see the awesome northern lights. We tried it several times provate, but the luck was not on out side. So we thought "we're gonna book a professional trip this time". Of course, you still need good luck (clear sky, no clouds and of course-> northern lights lool). So we booked and kept the fingers crossed. Sara (our team leader) picked us up. She was really cool. She told us many about the area we headed to and about northern lights in general. She was all the time in contact with another group, that went into another direction. So when we had no luck, she checked the other group and we made an 180° turn and joined them. She gave everything to make the trip a success!! And finally there they were!! Northern lights. We had a small campfire, some warm delicious berry juice and had all the time to enjoy the light show above us. Sara made some awesome pics wirh her professional camera that she sended us via email (sara, if you read this "thank you very much!!!! Awesome shot!!!!!). Even on the way back, she stopped several times and showed us more lights above!!
Would i book this trip again?? YES, for sure 100%. Sara was really nice and cool!!! We enjoyed the whole trip very much. I can honestly recommed sara and the trip, if you wanna experience an awesome evening/night with nice people and lights!!!

Greetings to abisko from frankfurt,germany!!!

Maybe we'll see us again next year.

Fantastic experience! Michelle and Sara were the BEST guides; providing information and history of the area, understanding of the Sami people and culture, the science behind the Northern Lights, and FINDING the Northern Lights! Amazing evening!
