How to Plan the Ultimate Northern Lights Trip
Dreaming of seeing the Northern Lights? Here’s how I help travelers turn that dream into an unforgettable (and beautifully organized) reality.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of standing beneath the Northern Lights—let’s make it happen for you.
A Bucket List Experience That Doesn’t Have to Feel Overwhelming
There’s something magical—almost otherworldly—about standing under the open sky as ribbons of green, purple, and pink shimmer above you. For many of my clients, seeing the Northern Lights ranks high on their dream list. But knowing where (and when) to go, what kind of trip to plan, and how to make it all happen can stop that dream in its tracks.
That’s where I come in.
As a travel advisor who helps busy families, couples, and friends plan custom luxury getaways, I specialize in transforming big travel dreams into trips that actually happen—with less stress and more joy.
When and Where to See the Northern Lights
A front-row seat to nature’s most spectacular light show—this could be your view.
One of the first things we’ll determine together is when and where to go. The Northern Lights are most visible from late September through early April, depending on the location. Some of the most popular destinations include:
Iceland – Easily accessible with lots of tour options, hot springs, and volcanic landscapes.
Norway – Think fjords, reindeer, and scenic rail routes paired with boutique lodging.
Sweden & Finland – Known for glass-roofed igloos, snowy safaris, and serene Arctic beauty.
Alaska & Northern Canada – A great option for U.S. travelers looking to stay closer to home.
Not sure where to start? I’ll guide you through the options based on your preferences, pace, and travel style.
Luxury Under the Lights: Yes, It’s Possible
Experience the magic from every angle—warm and relaxed, with the Northern Lights just beyond your window.
Planning a Northern Lights trip doesn’t mean you have to rough it. In fact, there are stunning luxury properties throughout the Arctic Circle—think private chalets, gourmet meals, and spa treatments—designed for travelers who want to experience the aurora and unwind in comfort.
Together, we’ll find the right balance of adventure and relaxation, with options like:
Private guides for aurora hunting
Cozy evenings in igloo or glass-domed accommodations
Snowmobile safaris and dog sledding excursions
Geothermal hot springs and wellness experiences
