The Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp with Dinner tour pairs a relaxed evening with 200 Alaskan huskies at a camp just 30 minutes from the city with a warm Norwegian dinner and a chance, not a chase, at seeing the aurora.
What makes the Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp worth booking?
The short 30-minute transfer is the standout feature here. Most Tromso aurora tours involve hours of driving to escape light pollution; this one gets you to the camp quickly and lets the evening unfold from there, cuddling huskies, warming up in a lavvo, and eating a proper dinner while you wait to see if the lights show up.
What to expect at the Northern Lights husky camp
Once at the camp, you will meet around 200 Alaskan huskies, including puppies when they are present, a genuine highlight regardless of the sky. Inside an authentic lavvo, or lying on reindeer skins outside, you can watch and wait while your guide answers questions and shares stories. It is worth being clear about what this tour is not: there is no dog sledding included, and it is not an active chase that drives around hunting for clearer sky elsewhere.
Is the Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp a good pick if I mainly want to see the aurora?
Not primarily, and the tour is upfront about that. As a work of nature, there is no guarantee the lights will appear, and since this format stays at one camp, your odds depend entirely on the sky above that specific spot that night. If seeing the aurora is your top priority, the Tromsø Northern Lights Unlimited Chase Tour actively drives to find clear sky instead.
What is included on the husky camp tour?
Included: transportation to and from Tromso, thermal suits and boots, a warm bacalao dinner made with Norwegian stockfish and tomato sauce, and coffee and cake. Not included: dog sledding and an active Northern Lights chase, both of which are handled by separate, dedicated tours.
Who should book the Northern Lights husky camp tour
This suits travelers who love dogs, families who want a shorter evening than a full chase, and anyone who wants a hearty dinner without hours in a bus first. If you specifically want to try dog sledding as well, look for a dedicated husky sledding tour, and pair this camp visit with a separate chase like the Tromsø Small-Group Aurora Chase on another night.
Prices and what the husky camp tour includes
Listed pricing starts from €166 per person. As with any live marketplace listing, treat this as a guide rather than a guarantee, and confirm the current price before booking.
Getting there and meeting point
The tour includes transportation from a meeting point in Tromso, confirmed on your booking voucher, with the short 30-minute transfer making this one of the more time-efficient evening options in the city. See every other Tromso Northern Lights tour on this site for comparison.
Insider tips for the Tromsø Northern Lights Husky Camp
Go in expecting a great evening with the dogs and treat any aurora sighting as a bonus, that mindset matches what this tour actually delivers better than going in expecting a dedicated hunt. Thermal suits and boots are provided, but bring your own gloves and a hat for extra warmth while sitting outside on the reindeer skins. If you want to maximize your odds of seeing the lights on a separate night, check the NOAA aurora forecast before booking a dedicated chase.
