Embrace winter in Northern Scandinavia, journeying from Rovaniemi to Tromso via Lapland’s snowy landscapes, Abisko’s Northern Lights and cultural encounters with the Sami.
-
Journey through Lapland – the home of Santa Claus – in winter. During this harsh but incredibly beautiful season, there are far less tourists and you’ll be treated to a new perspective of Northern Scandinavia.
-
Learn the traditional bread-baking techniques and surrounding folklore during a fun workshop in Lulea. Then, walk through the UNESCO World Heritage site of Gammelstad Church Town by lantern light with a local guide.
-
Discover the fascinating culture and traditions of the Sami people and meet a local reindeer herder in the village.
-
Take a Northern Lights tour as nightfall descends in the scenic Abisko National Park – this is one of the best places in the world to spot the colourful displays of the Aurora Borealis!
-
Travel to new cities you’ve never seen blanketed in snow – like Narvik and Tromso, where you can walk along the picturesque streets packed with colourful houses.
Stay in comfortable hotels and cozy cabins, with accommodation on a twin or multishare basis. Facilities may occasionally be shared rather than ensuite, and European hotels may not provide kettles or fridges. Check-in may not be available on early arrival, and alternative, similar-standard properties may be used.
