Imagine drifting through the ethereal Arctic, where sunlight glimmers around the clock and wildlife reigns supreme.

Designed for those seeking relaxed-paced but immersive discovery, this trip balances comfort with the thrill of Arctic exploration.

Awesome, amazing, fantastic … a magical tour. We were very fortunate to have fine clear and sunny skies with no wind for large period of our trip. We did experience whiteouts in the mountains and a little snow. The Northern Lights were better than I hoped for. Erla our guide was superb, enthusiastic to share her knowledge and love for her country with a great itinerary. Thor our driver was also fantastic and safe as there were a few tricky days with whiteouts and ice! Highly recommend this tour. Food was tops too

I really enjoyed the tour overall. I made new friends and never imagined that joining a tour solo could be this much fun. From day one, we have breakfast and dinner together, and I felt connected to the group right away. I was initially hesitant about doing the Via Ferrata, but the support and motivation from my teammates made it a truly special experience. Thank you for this unforgettable and unique adventure!

The trail crosses many spectacles including the third biggest geothermal zone in the world, through yellow rhyolite mountains, over black deserts, past great canyons and finally into the verdurous valley of Þórsmörk.
