Not really meant for kids. It is a late night. It read they have lounge chairs. They do not. However, they are nicely padded ones. Other chairs were like dining room chairs. We were lucky and got in first and saved a padded chair by the windows. Our guide did not give much instruction or discussion. She did let us know when we should go outside, which was nice. Snacks were plentiful. It was a nice place to stay and relax while waiting for the lights to come out. I would recommend and I would do it again.

Viator is not reliable in providing the service they promise. Miscommunication with the local operator was the reason we couldn't go to the Aurora summit. Viator ticket said "pick up time 9:30 pm". We were surprised by a call from the driver at 9:10 pm. We came down to the lobby within 5 minutes. The driver was gone to pick up other customers. There was more miscommunication with the local operator. Eventually we had to go with another operator who happened to be at the lobby and had extra 3 seats for our family. Viator did not take responsibility to refund our money. We really had a very bad experience and are never going to use their service again.

Had an amazing time and was stunned with the beautiful aurora. Michael was really friendly and very prompt, and helpful regarding pickup and drop-off as well. Had a really good time.

We loved our Aurora experience! The Aurora did not disappoint! It was a bucket list goal and thanks for getting us there safely and back again,

There wasn't a lot of activity which is beyond anyone's control. The team, however, did everything to make us comfortable, plenty of snacks and hot drinks. When there was activity, they alerted us and took a photo of whoever wanted one with the Aurora in the background with a brief flash to light those being photographed. Cool photo. Best of all, we could stay warm (it was about-38 outside I think), see outside easily, and sit comfortably while waiting.
