Day 1: Fly from the UK to Norway

Fly to Tromsø, meet your Tour Manager and transfer to your hotel, in heart of the city. Depending on the time you arrive, you may have time get to know your surroundings and enjoy a first evening in the city. You’ll find welcoming cafes and bars are everywhere, and the city’s restaurants serve both Arctic specialities and a huge range of international cuisine.

Day 2: Time to explore Tromso

The largest settlement beyond the Arctic Circle, Tromsø, is a delightful city to wander around, wrapped up against the cold. Breathe the pure Arctic air as you discover how the city compensates for the short days of winter. Explore the market held daily in the Stortorget main square, and enjoy the sight of fresh Arctic fish being landed on the busy quayside. Elsewhere on the waterfront, Tromsø’s aquarium, Polaria, which also shows films exploring Arctic life and nature, and Mack, the world’s northernmost brewery, draw fascinated visitors. Take the cable car to the summit of Mount Storsteinen for unsurpassed views, and the chance to enjoy a snack or even dinner at the top station.

Day 3: Included Aurora Base Station Excursion

Today you’ll be free to explore the city some more, or join one of the exciting optional excursions on offer. Probably the highlight of your visit, though, will be this evening’s included excursion to an Aurora Base Station, one of several locations that offer the best chances of glimpsing the extraordinary sight of the Northern Lights as they flicker across the skies.

Day 4: Fly back to the UK

Your wonderful time in Tromsø comes to an end, today, though you’ll still have time to enjoy one last exciting excursion before you transfer back to Tromsø Airport to board your flight home.
