Welcome to the Arctic capital of Tromsø!

With some extra time before departure, you could visit the beautiful Arctic Cathedral, take a trip up the mountain lift, visit the Mack Brewery or the Polaria adventure centre. If you want to spend an extra day or two in Tromsø we can arrange for summit trips with a guide in the area around Tromsø or in Lyngen.

First day of skiing! Breakfast is served from 07:30. Today's tours are organised based on the current weather and snow conditions. Our guides tailor make tours, dependent upon ability, for new beginners through to highly experienced skiers.

We'll arrange trips with a difficulty level of 3-4 on our scale up to 5. The tours take 4-5 hours, and are approx. 6-700 vertical metres in elevation. If anyone in the group wants a longer trip, we suggest that one group walks for 5-6 hours, with a difficulty level of 4-5 on our scale up to 5.

After a long day, you can test the temperature in the fjord with a quick dip. Alternatively go straight for after-ski and enjoy a local snack along with the good atmosphere onboard before dinner at 19:00. At 16:00 we sail south and arrive in Andørja at approx. 23:00. With luck, we'll experience the Northern Lights on the journey!

We anchor in a fantastic fjord, observing the mountains we will climb later. Take the first coffee of the day on deck and enjoy the view! Breakfast starts from 07:30. This is the day we'll explore the mountains of Andørja and Rolla. Andørja is Northern Europe's most mountainous island with more than ten peaks over 1000 metres, giving a wide array of ski touring possibilities.

We'll arrange trips with a difficulty level of 3-4 on our scale up to 5. The tours take 4-5 hours, and are approx. 6-700 metres in elevation. If anyone in the group wants a longer trip, we suggest that one or more groups walk for 5 hours, up to approx. 8-900 metres altitude. This gives a combined hike up two or more mountain peaks, with a difficulty level of 4 on our scale up to 5.

After the tour we return to our floating lodge and enjoy apres-ski with a local snack before dinner at 19:00.

In the afternoon we sail on towards Lofoten. We arrive around 23:00 and anchor up in the Austnesfjorden, in the heart of the classic route area for summit trips.

We wake in the Austnesfjorden, in the heart of Lofoten where all the classic summit routes are located. This will be a spectacular end of tour and a great day in Lofoten, with countless opportunities for great skiing. The guides organise tours that are right for you, based on the day's weather and conditions. We take tenders to the shore, and immediately begin the summit trips from the shoreline.

You'll check out from the ship in the morning before heading ashore, leaving the luggage that will be transported straight to the airport. After the tour guests are taken directly to the airport, arriving at 16:00. The luggage shipped earlier will be made available.

Independent excursions such as kayaking, fishing, sea eagle safaris, "vær-vandring" in Henningsvær or gallery visits to the Lofotens House gallery and the Kaviar Factory gallery can also be arranged.
