YOUR TRAVEL PLAN

Day 1
ARRIVAL IN TROMSØ

 

Flight to Tromsø airport, located north of the Arctic Circle.
Gateway to Norwegian Lapland, this region exudes a magnetic aura thanks to the fascinating and renowned aurora borealis, visible mainly between September and April. The transfer from the airport to your 4* hotel located in the heart of the city is included and then it’s time to settle in.

 

Days 2 & 3
TROMSØ

 

After a night of rest, start your day by discovering the city center of Tromsø. Still nicknamed the “Paris of the North” but without any real consensual justification, it will delight you with its century-old wooden houses, but also with its Arctic Cathedral. Its sleek and modern interior, as well as its atypical roof over the city, are a real architectural feat. Continue your journey by immersing yourself in the epic of the trappers and their expeditions in the Great North at the Polarmuseet, a fun and modern museum not to be missed.

 

Jour 4
POLAR FJORDS CRUISE

 

Embark on the Arctic! You will sail for 5 hours on this icy ocean around the beautiful fjords and straits of the region. Along the way, you will enjoy delicious fish such as skrei, the famous cod, drinks and snacks.
Make yourself comfortable in a heated cabin or choose to stay on deck and enjoy the view in a wetsuit provided. With your camera in hand, don’t miss a single moment of the show: cormorants, seals, otters and dolphins playing in the water. On the banks, try to spot the reindeer and and admire the diversity of Tromsø’s flora and fauna.

 

Day 5
DOG SLEDDING

 

Meet us in downtown Tromsø, then head to the island of Kvaløya in a comfortable minibus to the kennel, the starting point for an incredible adventure.
After a meeting with the dog pack, go for an amazing ride on your own sled to discover the fantastic landscape of the great cold.

 

Day 6
TROMSØ

 

Free day to enjoy one last taste of the Arctic or to take advantage of the hotel’s sauna. In the evening, you may have the chance to see the Northern Lights one last time from the hotel’s glass deck.

 

Day 7
BACK TO FRANCE

 

You have just lived real polar experiences between sled dogs, fjords and aurora borealis. It is now time to return to France with memories and images in your head.
