After arriving in Oslo, you will be whisked away across the Arctic Circle to the Lofoten Islands. It is here amid dramatic mountain faces and shocking-blue fjords and bays that your arctic safari begins.
Explore the Lofoten Islands from your exclusive hotel located in the small fishing village at Henningsvær. From here you will have the opportunity to watch the Northern Lights (September to April) and set out on a private rib boat safari to search for white-tail eagles. Additionally, go showshoeing amid the hills and lakes, and explore the wild beaches and turquoise waters on a private sightseeing tour. Highlights, of course, include plenty of glacial valleys, granite mountains, and quaint polar fishing villages.
Next, continue your Arctic Safari in the picturesque Lyngen Alps.
Personal touches at Arctic Wilderness Lodge welcome you every day from your explorations through the Norway Arctic. Skiing, fishing, kayaking, whale watching, and glacier treks are among the many adventures that await during your three days on Arctic safari in the Lyngen Alps.
Specifically, we recommend a unique Sami cultural experience complete with a reindeer sleigh ride through the Arctic forest. Also, partake in a half-day private snowmobile safari, ending at an Ice Hotel for an indulgent Arctic Spa experience. Finally, take a private full-day boat expedition to the Alta Fjord, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Arctic Ocean.
Alternatively, you may upgrade your experience with a scenic helicopter flight over the fjords, mountains, and canyons of Sautso National Park.
Next, journey even farther north of the Arctic Circle to the far-flung Svalbard Islands.
You will stay in the comfortable luxury lodge confines of the Funken Lodge. The Arctic safari activities here include boating safaris, dog sledding, and snowmobiling in this scenic location--the land of polar bears.
Your safari outings will focus on the breathtaking landscapes and glaciers of Svalbard. Also go in search of seals, wild reindeers, walruses, whales, and thousands of birds.
