Dogsled and Chase the Northern Lights
About the Adventure
Jamie’s been dreaming of this adventure ever since childhood when he first read Jack London’s The Call of the Wild. And we’re bringing the dream to life in Norway. North of the Arctic Circle, we’ll explore the colorful streets of the picturesque harbor town, Tromso, before barreling across the frozen fjords behind strong, preternaturally-trained, and loveable Alaskan Huskies. The highlights of this trip include:
Explore the fjords of Tromsøya during a morning dogsledding ride
- Overnight in a traditional Sami lodge (called a lavvu) underneath The Northern Lights
- Explore life north of the Arctic Circle in Tromso while experiencing authentic Sami culture
- Opportunities to go ice fishing, whale watching, snowmobiling, reindeer herding, cross country skiing, snowshoe safariing, and more
Jan 19 – 24, 2020
We like to experience local culture during each of our adventures. On this Grand Adventure in Norway, we’ll explore what make the people, the culture, and the country so unique.
