  • Katherine E.
“Iceland exceeded all our expectations! It is an extraordinary place with an incredible culture. The country boasts amazing natural beauty and the food scene is diverse. The entire experience was unique.The travel company hired a private guide who was beyond amazing. We experienced the country from a local and tourist perspective, enjoying some of the traditional sites, along with several local spots.”

“My son and I did the Northern Lights Tour. This was a rare chance to spend some time together (hes a busy father and Im a retired 71 year old). We wanted something a little different that we could both enjoy and Midgard offered a tour that seemed to suit, couple with more than a hint of adventure. We were not disappointed. Midgard is a family run business and clearly values the personal touch. Our four days were varied, interesting and fun. The sightseeing was ably organised by our driver and guide, Bjarni, who kept us both informed and entertained (he is a classically trained singer, as well!). His border collie, Krea, added to the enjoyment. The highlights for me were the glacier climb and ice field walk and seeing the northern lights (this was facilitated by one of the owners getting out of bed and driving us to the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night to maximise the view). Basecamp is funky, functional and the food is excellent. I cant recommend them more.”
Great trip to Western Arctic: Canada and Greenland

“First two days due to strong winds we were exploring unexpectedly fjord near Kangerlussuaq airport in Greenland. This affected the planned itinerary and expedition team worked hard to resolve various issues. It was a very memorable experience with 18 nights on board of Ultramarine. We have visited places where no other expedition ships have been or only visited on rare occasions. We were lucky with clear skies on the first 6 nights and the Aurora Borealis was better and better on each night. Glaciers, icebergs were nice backdrops on many photos and experiences were enhanced with helicopter flights over magnificent landscapes of Baffin island (Sam Ford fjord especially) and Greenland. Wonderful autumn colours of tundra and rock formations were explored on many hikes in addition to the visits to archeological sites. Introduction to Inuit culture and history was during visits to Itileq, Ilulissat, Uummannaaq, Nipisat island and Pond Inlet. It was enhanced by performances of local artists and visits to Inuit colourful homes. Although the wildlife of Arctic is not so plentiful as in Antarctica, we managed to have wonderful observations of numerous polar bears (12 in one day!), seals and birds. We also followed somewhat the footsteps of Franklin's expedition and reached the Beechey island where the expedition has spent the winter in 1845/46 and where are some graves of the sailors. Expedition team members presented many interesting lectures on history, geology, birds and bears. It was also a nice culinary experience of Greenlandic cuisine: Tundra to Table.”

Northern Europe — Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

There are many incredible places to go backpacking around the world, but none as great as Northern Europe. Gets lost in their endless royal palaces, castles, expansive forests, cross-country railways, snowy glaciers, and so much more. While Paris and Rome get much of the hype of Europe, a tour to Northern Europe will allow you to escape the heavily populated areas and harsh climates and discover more hidden gems of Europe – minus the crowds. Northern Europe is vast and you could easily spend a couple weeks traveling the countryside, but they are all well connected with railways and public transportation that makes it easy to get around. While you're in Northern Europe, don't forget to at least consider to take a tour to Scandinavia

Tour Highlights

  • One of the most popular countries in the world, England, is a dream destination with all of its beauty and grandeur. Rich in history you can explore some of the best historical palaces and castles all across London, Liverpool, Manchester, and York. 
  • Stare in awe at the Northern Lights in Iceland from November to March as you witness one of the best natural phenomena’s in the world.
  • A trip to Scanadinavia will show you some of Northern Europe’s iconic landscapes taking you from Stockholm’s Royal Palace, down to the Round Tower of Copenhagen, then to the fish markets of Sweden, and finishing it off with the impressive churches and art galleries of Oslo, Norway.
  • For one of the most affordable Northern European experiences, a trip to the Baltics is recommended! With a combination of Medieval and Baroque style architecture, you’ll find an endless supply of castles, cathedrals, bazaars and art galleries to keep you wondering at the marvel of human creativity.

Travel Tips

  • The climate around Northern Europe can be very unpredictable so be sure to pack multiple layers and additional clothes. Additionally, it’s highly suggested to bring an umbrella (especially in London) in case of showers.
  • There are a few standards in most Northern European countries including: Avoid being overly noisy, ensure you are always punctual to events/meetings, and greet others with a handshake.
  • While tipping at restaurants and bars is not mandatory in Europe, unlike in other Western countries, it is suggested to round off the bill upwards with a tip to avoid change.
