BIG PICTURE- I’m hosting a small group of 10-12 to Arctic Norway. The focus will be Northern Lights chasing, while they are at the Solar maximum this year, husky racing, and experiencing the diverse Norwegian coastline on our all-inclusive cruise.
While researching the perfect itinerary and unique experiences, I came across Sami Week and knew that’s the type of experience I want to have and offer. It’s a celebration of Sami (the local indigenous people) culture and tradition. That will include reindeer races, local markets, and a lot of their traditional color outfits against the snow, all while we chase the Northern Lights after dark. Then came pairing it with a coastal cruise, which I find to be the best value and way to see more of the country!
DETAILS– Once I reach 10 people, I will book the Hurtigruten The North Cape Line – North Cruise (itinerary details are below the flyer). The dates are 1/29-2/4, leaving from Oslo and ending in Tromso just before the weekend Sami Festival activities start and allowing time for added Northern Lights and husky racing excursions all while exploring the ‘Capital of the Arctic’, Tromso.
–For the 3 nights in Tromso, we will stay in a large 5 bedroom home in town, this is included in the estimated price quote. You of course have the option to book a hotel on your own if you prefer!
–Everything is based on double occupancy.
–International flights to/from Oslo (running $700-$900 from most cities right now), one way from Tromso to Oslo (usually around $150), and meals + excursions in Tromso are not included. Unfortunately, Norway and Scandinavia are quite expensive both individually and on tours. I hope to provide a nice mid-range opportunity compared to the other tour options I have found to experience the Northern Lights, have a relaxing cruise up the coast and through the fjords, and enjoy a local and cultural festival.
–-NEEDS– To secure your spot, send me a message and I’ll provide a link for the $500 deposit. Please note, if we do not fill the spots by Nov 25th, I will be returning the deposit amounts!
