We booked with Levi and had an amazing night. He communicated with us about when we'd be picked up and when he arrived. He drove us farther than he needed to on such a clear night just to get us to a spot he liked where no one else was around. The vehicle was a little snug with 6 people in tons of winter gear but well worth it. He even set off some fireworks just for fun lol. After this tour I felt confident enough to go out aurora chasing other nights on my own. Highly recommend.
