Dreaming of the Northern Lights? The best way to experience them is with a Flexible Independent Travel (FIT) itinerary. You’ll enjoy luxury, comfort, and freedom, all designed around YOU.
This unforgettable journey takes you from Norway’s fjords to Finland’s Arctic wilderness. Along the way, you’ll cruise beneath the aurora, sleep in glass cabins, and enjoy a one-of-a-kind adventure tailored to your exact style.
Your journey begins in Bergen. From there, board a luxury fjord cruise north to Kirkenes. Unlike flying or driving, cruising allows you to truly slow down and take in the breathtaking scenery.
As you travel, you’ll glide through dramatic fjords, past waterfalls and small villages unreachable by land. In addition, you can enjoy spa treatments, gourmet dining, and stunning views from your suite or panoramic lounge.
Most importantly, cruising lets you chase the Northern Lights in comfort, no airports, no transfers, just pure Arctic magic.
Once in Kirkenes, your true Arctic adventure begins. To kick things off, try a thrilling King Crab Safari. Ride out on the frozen fjord, catch your crab, cook it fresh, and enjoy a truly memorable feast.
Afterward, choose your overnight stay. You can brave a night in the stunning Snowhotel, crafted entirely from ice. Or, if you prefer warmth, settle into a cozy Gamme cabin, complete with floor-to-ceiling windows perfect for viewing the aurora.
No matter which you choose, it’s an unforgettable start to your time in the north.
Next, continue your journey into Finnish Lapland and check into Saariselkä’s Northern Lights Village. Here, you’ll stay in a heated glass-roofed Aurora Cabin, allowing you to gaze at the stars and aurora from bed.
During the day, adventure awaits with exciting Arctic experiences such as:
– Husky sledding
– Snowmobiling
– Reindeer sleigh rides
Later, as night falls, return to your cabin, get cozy, and watch the sky light up overhead. It’s a peaceful and magical way to end the day.
For an extra touch of winter magic, consider adding a stop in Rovaniemi, the official hometown of Santa Claus. Here, you can visit Santa Claus Village, cross the Arctic Circle, and enjoy more Northern Lights viewing, with a festive twist.
This is a fantastic option for families or anyone who loves a mix of adventure and holiday cheer.
Further south in Kemi, it’s time for something truly unique. Suit up and float among icebergs in a dry suit, a thrilling and safe Arctic experience you’ll never forget.
Afterwards, relax in a glass cabin by the lake or sea. With panoramic views and tranquil surroundings, it’s yet another chance to watch the aurora dance above, all from the warmth of your bed.
Because the Northern Lights are naturally unpredictable, a tailor-made FIT itinerary offers you the best chance to see them, unlike rigid group tours.
With a FIT itinerary, your trip is thoughtfully built around what matters most to you—not around someone else’s schedule.
– Want to stay longer in Saariselkä or Rovaniemi for better aurora chances? We’ll include that.
– Prefer extra time on your cruise and fewer travel days? That’s easy to arrange.
– Hoping for private upgrades or unique, exclusive experiences? You’ve got options.
Most importantly, everything is planned before you travel, with expert care and local insight, so you can relax, knowing everything is taken care of. No stress. No guesswork. Just your dream trip, your way.
After your Arctic adventures, it’s time to slow down and enjoy the cities of the south. First, take the scenic train to Helsinki, where you can explore design museums, cozy cafes, and seaside markets.
Next, hop a ferry to Tallinn, Estonia. Choose a private walking tour or simply wander the fairy-tale Old Town at your own pace.
Finally, take the overnight ferry to Stockholm and wake up in Sweden’s elegant capital. Enjoy royal palaces, world-class museums, and fine Nordic dining before your journey comes to a close.
Of course, you can also start in Stockholm and work your way north. With FIT, it’s completely up to you.
A FIT itinerary means every part of your holiday is designed just for you, your pace, your preferences, your travel dreams.
With expert planning and insider knowledge, you’ll enjoy:
✔️ Seamless logistics and luxury comfort
✔️ Unique, handpicked experiences
✔️ A well-planned, stress-free trip tailored to your style
