2025 is good. Peak of the 11 year solar cycle. Anything good in Faroe island? Haven't been there before.

what is the cheapest way to see it? which country? which flight? which hotel?

Some useful tips I learned:

Need to plan for a week's stay. Some days might have bad conditions due to weather or just not enough activity in the sky. Food and hotel can save if on tight budget. There are cheaper hotels n eating options.

Recommend not to save on good winter jacket and booking a tour with one that can take professional photos with some wow factor. Otherwise will just get pics from mobile phone which isn't great

Just want to spend some quiet time there during mid summer. Enjoy moments.

The very reason I liked Iceland, Tromso, & other places.

Most reliable aurora forecast app I found so far:

Aurora Reach

Does Tasmania fit the criteria for quiet time like these places you mentioned?
