Itinerary
& Highlights |
| |
Day 1 – Friday
Depart the UK and fly to Kiruna via Stockholm. At Kiruna you will be met by a Voyage guide and taken to the Musher's lodge where you will be shown the Arctic clothes and given help to select the best kit that will help to keep you warm for the duration of your Arctic adventure.
You will be given a small tour of the surrounding area and information about the different dogs, how they are trained and used within a team. After dinner take a look outside for the famed Northern Lights. Dinner included.
Day 2 - Saturday
After breakfast you will have a short instruction on how to drive a dog sled team before you take off with your very own team. Then you will have a chance to be a musher, and can marvel at this incredible mode of transport, as the dogs yelp and bark their way across the frozen tundra towards the Wilderness Lodge, where you will stop for lunch.
Tonight you will have the chance to spend the night in the world famous Ice Hotel. After a guided tour of the Ice rooms and an explanation of how it all works, there’s a chance for a pre-dinner sauna and hopefully an after-dinner view of the Northern Lights. After this you will kip down in your ice room – the bed is made of solid ice, but amazingly you stay warm through the night! Breakfast and lunch included.
Day 3 – Sunday
After a welcome hot drink in bed and a hearty breakfast you will have a chance to explore more of the wilderness on a snowmobile. Once you have tried these powerful machines, it’s time to pack up and head back to the airport for your journey home, full of fond memories of your experiences in the Arctic Circle. Breakfast included.
This arctic weekend experience is designed to be fun and give you a taste of the best of the far Northern climates. However temperatures can drop to almost -30c, so you need to be aware that this may mean some activities would be cancelled or shortened. |
