Holiday Idea
Gateway to the Arctic, Norway’s northernmost hub of Tromsø is a lively city surrounded by mountains, fjords and islands. Fishermen’s tales have shaped popular culture in this country which sings of the sea, and every island and islet has a story to tell. Enjoy two nights at the fabulous Clarion Hotel The Edge, overlooking the fjord. Spend days enjoying some of the key attractions in the city, before travelling east to the magnificent Lyngen peninsula to relax and take part in exhilarating winter activities from the beautiful boutique Lyngen Experience Lodge.
Itinerary
Day 1 | Arrive in Tromsø
Arrive in Tromsø and transfer to the fabulous Clarion Hotel The Edge, your home for the next two nights. Settle in and admire the beautiful surroundings from this modern hotel
where the water provides a stunning reflection of its innovative architecture. Perhaps choose to dine in the hotel’s popular Kitchen & Table restaurant in the evening.
Day 2 | Northern Lights
Spend today at leisure or book an optional excursion. In the evening head out on a Northern Lights hunt in a Tesla Model X — a zero-emission, magically silent, powerful vehicle. Experience cruising in the next generation of cars along the Arctic roads. The car is equipped for safe winter driving with an effective heating system to make sure you are comfortable at all times.
Day 3 | Exploring The City
A day in Tromsø. Walk or take the short bus ride to Fjellheisen, the cable car which runs from Solliveien in Tromsdalen up to Storsteinen (421m above sea level). Enjoy a wonderful birds-eye view of the city. Later transfer to Lyngen Experience Lodge. You will be collected from Clarion Hotel The Edge and will travel by car and ferry. Check in for a three night stay then enjoy a three course dinner overlooking the beautiful Ulsfjord.
Day 4 | Snowmobile Safari
After breakfast, head out on a snowmobile safari in outer Lyngen surrounded by the Lyngen Alps. Following the snowmobile trail up the mountains, you will stop in several spots for photos to admire the beautiful scenery and to enjoy some hot drinks and snacks. Travel back to Lyngen Experience Lodge and relax in the afternoon. Perhaps make use of the sauna and outdoor hot tub before dinner in the main lounge area.
Day 5 | Alps Dog Sledding
After breakfast, enjoy an exclusive opportunity to discover the Lyngen area with renown Tom-Frode Johansen’s team. You will experience beautiful landscape in the heart of the Lyngen Alps. The trip will take around five hours and includes a stop to make a fire and enjoy hot drinks and snacks. You will be driving your own team of trusty dogs and will get the chance to help harness the team. Head back to Lyngen Experience for dinner.
Day 6 | Departure Day
Enjoy breakfast and lunch at Lyngen Experience and take some time to relax. Later in the afternoon, transfer back to Tromsø airport for your return travel plans.
