Few places compare to the beautiful and undiscovered hidden winter fjords of Northern Norway. The mighty Alps rise from sea level to the highest peaks, powdered with snow and blue winter light.
Even during the darkest period of the polar night, the blue pastel colours of the sky are magnificent. The legendary Northern Lights often illuminate the mysterious landscape on clear nights.
Departing from Alta, you will head South. Our main goal for the expedition cruise is to see the Northern Lights, so we will sail where the conditions are best for each day while working our way south towards Tromsø. It is a 4 or 5 day cruise, depending on departure.
When cruising through this spectacular scenery to explore Arctic wildlife and culture, we will try to give something in return to the nature and the locals by inviting our guests on board to clean a hidden beach. We will visit local villages, like Hamnes, with a unique and exciting history, and the little town of Skjervøy. Stops include the Northern-most Whiskey Distillery and the only glacier on mainland Norway that erupts into the sea. On board the boat we will offer interesting lectures covering the subjects for the cruise.
Highlights:
- Amazing opportunity to see the Northern Lights
- Northern Norway wildlife incl. eagles, Orcas and Humpback whales

- Experience life north of the arctic circle, during the polar night
