**Aurora Guarantee**
We only head out when chances of seeing the Lights are strong. If the forecast is poor, we’ll reach out on the morning of your tour so you can choose from:
1. **Full refund
2. **Reschedule** within the week (based on availability)
3. **Proceed anyway** (without the Aurora Guarantee)
If it turns out to be a good night but the Lights still don’t appear, you’ll receive:
- A **50% refund**, or
- A **free rebooking** (based on availability)
Our guides will confirm eligibility at drop-off.
Unsuccessful nights are rare — but you’re always covered.
Disclaimer:* An “Aurora Guarantee” night is determined based on real-time solar activity, satellite imaging, and sky clarity forecasts.
If our team believes viewing potential is low, we’ll reach out prior to departure with your options.
If **any amount** of Aurora is visible to the **eye or camera** during the outing, the night will be considered fulfilled under the terms of our Aurora Guarantee.
Additional Notes##
- Edited Photos – You’ll get all unedited JPEGs for free, but our hand-edited, professional gallery is available for $59 per group
- Private Van – This is a shared group adventure with up to 14 guests per van
- Full Dinner – We serve a twilight fireside snack, not a full meal, though we do our best to accommodate all diets including vegan and gluten-free
- Campfire & Extras – Our #1 mission is Aurora chasing — if long drives or weather affect timing, we may skip the campfire or dinner to maximize your viewing chances
SkyChase™ is an Aurora tour — not a restaurant.
We’ll always aim to deliver the full cozy-lodge experience, but if it comes down to campfire or catching the Lights, you know which one we’ll choose. 🌌
