Details:
Day 1: On the first day we will pick you up at the airport in Tromso or Alta. The wonderful route is perfect for letting your eyes wander and marveling at the impressive mountains and fjords. Once you arrive at Oksfjordhjem, you will have enough time to get settled in before we serve you food prepared on open fire.
Day 2: The next morning after breakfast, we go out with the sleddogs (with wheeled cart or sleds, depends on the snow). During the tour we take a break, when we have time to pet the huskies, give for them snacks, we also prepare something for ourselves on the fire.
Day 3: On the third day we go on a whale safari where we look for orcas from Skjervoy island, what is a world famous whale watching place. This is an external guided tour where other people will be also, not only our group.
Day 4: On the fourth day we go on a hike with snowshoes (in the case of no snow in normal shoes) and try to reach a spectacular viewpoint: forest, waterfall, lake, river, mountain peak, valley - depends on the conditions and participants. During the tour we stop on a nice place to eat.
Day 5: After an extensive snowshoe hike, we'll take it a little easier the next morning and you can use the morning to relax. We meet in the early afternoon to go hunting for the Northern Lights. We drive to the best places in Norway and warm up by the fire while we hopefully marvel at the natural spectacle.
Day 6: On the sixth day we visit the world of the Sami and their reindeers in Alta. We let ourselves be captivated by their stories, centuries-old traditions of the indigenous people of Scandinavia. This is on external guided tour, there will be several more participants on the tour. At a subsequent dinner in the appropriate atmosphere, we enjoy the traditional Sami food.
Day 7: The seventh day promises an Aurora Spirit Distillery Tour in the northernmost distillery in the world. You can also try one or two fine wines. For those groups who would prefer a road trip in the Lyngen Alps, this can be chosen as an alternative.
Day 8: On the eighth day, after breakfast, we take you back to the airport.
