Luxurious New Year in Norway: The itinerary
Day 1: Arrival & Northern Lights
Your adventure begins with your arrival in Tromsø and the transfer to your accommodation at 15:30. On the way, you can familiarize yourself with your new surroundings for the first time and look forward to the coming days between fjords, mountains and glistering snow. Once you arrive at your destination, you will be warmly welcomed with dinner and can move into your comfortable double room. Afterwards, you set off on a Northern Lights expedition. Depending on the weather conditions, the route will either take you to a tent in the forest to observe the Northern Lights from there or you will search for an optimal spot by car. Enjoy the silence of the Arctic night and the majestic landscape as you watch the unique spectacle of the Aurora Borealis - an unforgettable start to your New Year's vacation.
Catering begins with dinner on the first day and ends with breakfast on the last day.

After a delicious breakfast at the lodge, a 1.5-hour drive awaits you to meet your faithful companions for the day: the huskies! You will receive an introduction to the basics of dog sledding before setting off on a tour through the snowy landscape (2 persons / sled). The bond that develops between human and animal during this time is something very special. Along the way, you will stop to warm up by the campfire, enjoy a coffee and snacks and soak up the tranquillity of nature. The impressive backdrop of the Lyngen Alps provides the perfect panorama for this amazing experience. Back at the lodge, you can recover from your adventures in the sauna or jacuzzi, enjoy the beautiful view and fortify yourself with dinner.
Day 3: Snowmobile safari & New Year's Eve
The last day of the year promises pure thrills on a snowmoile safari through the breathtaking landscapes of Norway. After a short briefing, you will steer your own snowmobile over snow-covered trails and feel the freedom amidst spectacular views (2 persons / snowmobile). A special highlight awaits you in the evening: an exquisite 7-course New Year's Eve dinner. Celebrate the turn of the year in a relaxed atmosphere and toast the New Year, perhaps even under the magical glow of the Northern Lights.
Day 4: Whale watching in the Arctic Ocean
New Year's Day has an exciting whale safari in store. After breakfast, you will reach the harbour in Nord-Lenangen in some minutes and board a boat that will take you to the home of these majestic giants. On your search, you will explore the beautiful nature of northern Norway and get to know the sea like never before. Encountering whales in their natural habitat is a moving experience that you are sure to remember for a long time to come. Back at the lodge, you can relax in the sauna and jacuzzi and look forward to dinner.
Day 5: Farewell to Northern Norway
After breakfast, today is the time to say goodbye to Norway and its impressive landscapes. A transfer will take you back to Tromsø, which you will reach at around 12:00 noon. You will start your journey home with unforgettable memories in your luggage.

Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc). Feel free to contact us if you would like a more detailed assessment of this tour and travel period.
Note: We recommend booking additional categories and guided activities directly with the tour package (several weeks or months before arrival), as these may be fully booked at the time of travel. Some activities are only available on certain dates and not for the entire season.
