Make the most of your trip with our Arctic holiday packages!

Most of our guests stay in Northern Norway for several days but there is seldom enough time for all the tours and activities you wish to do while in Tromsø. Consequently, we have developed several packages that combine daytime activities with evening activities or overnight accommodation with a morning activity the following day.

Did you know that you can also visit Polar Park, the northernmost animal park in the world?

We offer return transport from Tromsø with the entrance ticket included.

Polar Park has Arctic animals you might not find in your home country such as lynxes, brown bears, wolverines, wolves, and Arctic foxes, among many other interesting creatures.

Glamping in the Troms area: Sleep on an Aurora Hut & go on a snowmobile tour the next day.

If you ever dreamed sleeping at an aurora hut, with the possibility of seeing the northern lights, and go on a snowmobile tour the next day, then this is the tour for you. Dinner is included and you can also use the sauna and jacuzzi available at the Aurora Hut camp.
