Overview

Our team of experts at Cox & Kings have come up with a selection of northern lights holidays. Now is an excellent time to see this natural phenomenon, with winter 2013 promising to be as spectacular as 2012, which was the best year for Aurora Borealis for fifty years. 

Winter is a magical time of year for Scandinavian countries, from the magic of the arctic tundra with ice formations and the silence of the snowsto the awe-inspiring spectacle of the aurora borealis.
