The Arctic Circle: Winter's Ultimate Playground

The Arctic Circle encompasses a variety of destinations: the Scandinavian Peninsula, Russia, Northern America, Canada, Greenland and many more islands dotted throughout the Arctic Ocean.

Where to explore?

The Svalbard Islands, Norway

A collection of Norwegian Islands, the Svalbard Islands offer culture and adventure in abundance, from abandoned historic settlements, fine dining and polar bear sightings, to abseiling into crevasses, snowmobile exploration and dog sledding over glacial ice caps. This Norwegian archipelago will imprint memories that will last a lifetime.

Finnish Lapland, Finland

Wrap up warm as you and your family head to Finnish Lapland visiting Europe’s largest lake district, dropping you right in the middle of nature. Weave amongst the trees in husky-pulled sledges, and head out with an expert naturalist to look for wolves, bears and elks as you follow fresh tracks in the snow. Gaze up at the nights sky as the Northern Lights dance above your head.

Arctic Alaska, USA

Explore this vast Arctic playground filled with wildlife, adventure, and culture. Discover the key inhabitants of this Arctic tundra and how the Nunamiut, Athabascan Indians and Inupiaq Eskimo people all survive in this white desert landscape.

Wonder at this remarkable landscape from the heights of a helicopter before jumping out to head on a day’s skiing led by our expert guides.

Northern Norway

Experience an exclusive insight into local communities and their ancient practices alongside Sámi reindeer herders. Snuggle up in one of Norway’s luxury hideaways and gaze upon the Aurora Borealis dancing in the sky above. Explore frozen lakes by snowmobile before drilling through the thick ice to catch lunch. Norway is truly a natural haven.
