We were very pleased to see the Northern Lights on all 4 nights. Things to recommend: When we arrived the welcome was warm but we were asked for our itinerary so that they could find out what we were supposed to be doing....did not fill us with confidence! Having got out of bed at 3.30 am and arrived at Kiruna by 2pm I was disappointed that nothing had been arranged for us for the rest of the day except for clothes fitting, lunch and dinner. We had the Sami trip for the evening on our itinerary but that was postponed until the next day. Fortunately we saw the Northern Lights that evening. We were told that my wife and I were to be separated form our four friends for both the dog sledding and snowmobile. This was disappointing to hear but you will have heard from Doug Millington that we had a great time dog sledding as just the two of us were on our own with the guide and we were both able to drive. (Doug was extremely disappointed that he and the other three in our party had to sit together on a sled and were denied the opportunity to drive as had been promised.) Howeve,r two minutes after the dog sledding we rushed off to the Ice Hotel. It would have been far better to have included this visit on the first day. For me, the food offered for dinner was insufficient at Kiruna although the breakfasts were very good. (The dinners were very good at Abisco.) Our transfer from Abisco to Kiruna was supposed to be at 10 am but we were rushed, without notice, by Patrick at 9.40 am to leave so that other clients could be transferred earlier to their plane. I would have been happy to have arranged to leave at 9.40 am but I did not like being rushed without notice on our last day to spend even longer at Kiruna Airport. I understand that the organizers have problems dealing with clients on different itineraries but the problems I have described would have been easy to avoid.
