Yes, but according to our Terms and Conditions, cancellation less than 7 days prior to departure will be charged 100%. Cancellation from 7 days to 21 days prior to departure will be charged 60%. Cancellation 21 days or longer prior to departure will be charged 15% because we spend many hours every day, because of last minute cancellations, trying to find replacement, mainly because people book many days to be sure to see lights, and if they see lights the first day, they often want to cancel the rest of the days. This work cost us a lot of time and money. “No Shows” will be charged 100% (no show also includes showing up after meeting time).
We wish we could, but we cannot control weather conditions or solar activity. Therefore we can not guarantee that you will see the Northern Lights. We are passionate and experienced Northern Lights hunters. We use a combination of our knowledge and determination to find clear skies and show you the Northern Lights whenever possible. However, the last word belongs to nature. There are no refunds or free trips in the case that we do not see the Northern Lights, but we will make sure that you have an amazing experience even though.
The same applies to the wildlife tours. Watching wildlife in Senja is wonderful, but there is no guarantee that animals will be seen. What we guarantee is that during the tour we will do everything possible to see them.
Although we have experienced guides who know the region and the habits of many of the animals found on the island of Senja, it is sometimes not possible to see these animals. When this happens, the client can be sure that he will pass through beautiful landscapes of the island of Senja during this tour.
