Spend 6.5 hours traveling from Tromsø to Camp Tamok for ice domes, huskies, reindeer, snowshoeing, tandem skiing, fire-making, and a hot meal in a lavvu. Guides such as Eva, David, Emmy, and Laura add local stories and practical help, while thermal gear keeps you warm.
“great day at the camp seeing the ice domes, meeting the dogs and reindeer and playing in the snow!”
Spend 10 hours traveling from Bergen to Folgefonna National Park by bus and ferry, then walk the easy trail to Bondhusvatnet. Guides such as Alexa, Salome, Bailey, and Sam add local stories, while Steindalsfossen and several photo stops round out the day.
“Sam was a fantastic guide. I didn’t really know what to expect … but we had a few photo stops, she talked the whole way about history and facts about Norway. The hike was beautiful as was the waterfall. She even switch the order to avoid the rain. I would absolutely do it again.”

Travel from Bergen to Steinsdalsfossen, cross the Hardangerfjord by ferry, and hike through Folgefonna National Park to turquoise Bondhusvatnet. Guides such as Sam and Alexa add Norwegian history and local stories. The 10-hour trip includes transport and ferries, but bring your own food and prepare for changing weather.

You’ll travel by bus from Tromsø to the Lyngen Alps, learn the basics from an English-speaking guide, and ride a shared snowmobile for 1.5 to 2 hours. Guides such as Jakub, Samuel, and Thomas are praised for clear instruction and friendly care. The day ends with soup, bread, and hot drinks.
“An absolute amazing experience!! We had a tour cancel on us the day prior and found this tour and we are SO happy we did. They were also very accommodating during lunch and made us a delicious vegetarian dish. Views were spectacular and we had a surprise visit to Finland, Sweden, and Norway border!”
Travel from Tromsø to a mountain basecamp, eat a hot North Norwegian meal, then share a snowmobile with one other person for 1.5 to 2 hours. Guides such as Erik and Jacob keep the pace safe, stop for photos, and serve warm berry juice and biscuits.

Leave central Oslo for Østmarka National Park, where guides Oddbjørn or John lead a small group on beginner-friendly skis through forest and across frozen water when conditions allow. After about an hour, you’ll cook a warm Norwegian lunch over an open fire before skiing back.
“Oddbjorn est un guide patient, pédagogue et bienveillant. Même si vous n’avez jamais fait de ski, il n’y a pas de soucis, il vous expliquera toutes les règles de sécurité et tout se passera bien. Les endroits visités sont magnifiques et apaisants! Foncez faire cette activité !”
Pick a continent, a gate, or a kind of day.
