Gave us a memory of life time
We visited on 29 Feb 2020. Even though cloud cover was less as per the app we were following but the KP index was just 3. We were skeptic about seeing the lights. Also the charges for the trip for Northern Light Riders were way higher as compared to other trip providers. However, there website content and what they had written showed a lot of dedication and seemed promising so we chose to take their 4 hour minivan trip and we are really proud of our decision. We were picked up at 7:30 from our place by Timmo. The mini van had a capacity of 12 people. Few people were picked after us. We then were taken to their office somewhere in Inari where we were given proper dressing. We finally started from there at 8:30 around. First went to lake Inari and stopped as northern lights were visible. The first view of northern lights was disappointing and we moved from there. For our second view we literally stopped on road side. Now the lights were visible. We took pictures. Timmo stopped again when he saw a better view of lights compared to earlier and gave us hot berry drink. We clicked pictures again. We taught this was the end of the hunt but the best was yet to come. He started dropping the passengers and after first drop he stopped on roadside and this was it. The most b'ful show, this time lights were visible to the fullest, green and red and pink. It lasted 7-10 mins. We were overwhelmed. Summary: You get pics clicked by guide's better camera, Timmo was cordial and dedicated, clicked lot of pictures, they stop wherever they can to show you a better view. We stopped 4 times, reached our drop point at 12 a.m. which was close to 5 hour trip. They might be expensive but we found it worth the trip.
