    2. Do you recommend travel agent or DIY

    3. Hotel recommended

    4. Tour recommended

    5. Any other information

    Thanks in advance

    I’d recommend using a good aurora predictor app and keeping an eye on activity. If it’s the lights you specifically want to see, it’s worth booking last minute and spending a bit extra, rather then planning ahead and just being cold.

    Around the equinox’s are often better for activity and weather.
