NORTHERN LIGHTS AT THE TOP OF THE WORLD

Prices |  Tour Overview

DAY 1 UK - TROMSO Scheduled SAS flights to Tromso via Oslo . Self transfer & overnight at Hotel With. Dinner at the hotel.
DAY 2 TROMSO Day at leisure in this uni town set down by Tromso sound; great sea food, the Polaria museum and Fjellheisen cable car with its overview of the city are all worth it. Early evening departure by Hurtigruten sailing up the coast to Honningsvag, overnight accommodation in an I2 cabin.
DAY 3 TROMSO – NORTH CAPE -KJOLLEFJORD Late morning arrival in Honningsvag: travel by bus north to the vertiginous cliff face, christened North Cape by English explorer Richard Chancellor, which is Europe’s northernmost point. On arrival toast your intrepidity in champagne and gaze out across the eerie Arctic Ocean before embarking on your Hurtigruten steamer and sailing across open water into the tiny Kjollefjord for a night at charming Foldalbruket. Hot tub & dinner.
DAY 4 KJOLLEFJORD - KIRKENES This morning sail out into the fjord on a local trawler to catch your lunch, a giant red King Crab now immortalised by Gordon Ramsey, before reembarking on the Hurtigruten and cruising above the 70th parallel overnight to Kirkenes on the Norwegian/Russian border.
DAY 5 KIRKENES & THE SNOW HOTEL Disembark early morning and transfer to the world’s most northerly Snow Hotel before kitting up for a husky safari over by the Russian border with a hot snack lunch en route. Return in the afternoon for a tour of the Snow Hotel, dinner in a nearby Kota and a night in one of the hotel’s exquisitely sculpted snow suites.
DAY 6 KIRKENES – UK Warm up with a sauna before breakfast and transfer to the airport for return to the UK.
