We chose this trip as a couple and it was everything we dreamed of. Staying in a glass igloo, sailing under the Northern Lights, and the serene snowy settings made it truly romantic. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making it a trip of a lifetime.

The Northern Lights left us speechless. Couldn’t have asked for a better holiday

This tour was ideal for our family. The kids loved meeting Santa and playing at Snowman World, while we adults enjoyed the saunas, whale watching, and incredible landscapes. The Northern Lights left us speechless. Couldn’t have asked for a better holiday!
