☀️ SUMMER IN THE ARCTIC IS HERE… AND WE’RE ALREADY OUT EXPLORING! 🗺️
What’s it like to explore the Arctic when the sun never sets?

Think golden skies at midnight, quiet roads between dramatic fjords, and long hikes where daylight never runs out.
🌄 Summer in Tromsø feels like time slows down and nature takes over.

🦉 This season, we’re heading back out with some of our favourite ways to explore:

🟡 SUMMER DAY HIKE IN THE WILDERNESS.
Step off the beaten path and into the Arctic wilderness. Hike into peaceful valleys and take in dramatic mountain views. A great choice for anyone who wants to explore the Arctic on foot.

WHERE WOULD YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE ARCTIC SUMMER? 🤔

☀️ In summer, the Arctic transforms into a land of endless daylight and striking contrasts.
☀️ We spend our days exploring fjords, hidden beaches, and mountain peaks.
☀️ Whether you're chasing stillness or adventure, there's a place for you here.

👉 Which of these Arctic summer spots would you choose – the fjord, the beach, or the mountain peak? Let us know in the comments! 👇

☀️ THE MIDNIGHT SUN IS HERE!
What happens when the sun never sets?

✅ From 18 May to 26 July, the sun in Tromsø won’t set at all - it stays above the horizon 24 hours a day.
✅ That means golden skies around the clock, glowing mountain peaks at midnight, and long, light-filled days perfect for exploring the Arctic.

😍 Think wild green landscapes, reindeer roaming the fjords, and hikes with ocean views that never need to end early.

👉 What would you do with 24 hours of daylight? Share your thoughts with us 👇

📍 In the Arctic summer, the answer is: everything.
Hike late, take the long route, and let the fjords guide your way.

☀️ Midnight Sun vs. Polar Night – which one fascinates you more? 🌌

These two Arctic phenomena are opposites, yet both offer unforgettable experiences above the Arctic Circle.

MIDNIGHT SUN
☀️ The sun stays visible all night long – no darkness at all.
☀️ Happens from mid-May to late July in Tromsø.
☀️ Perfect for late-night hikes, kayaking, and endless golden hours.
☀️ Wildlife and nature stay active around the clock.

POLAR NIGHT
🌌 No sunrise for several weeks – just deep blue twilight.
🌌 In Tromsø, it happens from late November to mid-January.
🌌 Ideal conditions for spotting the Northern Lights.
🌌 Locals light up the darkness with candles, stars, and bonfires.

🌍 Which one would you love to experience? Or have you seen both? Let us know below! 👇

🙏 Winter 24/25, you were something special. 🙏

April marked the end of our winter season - and what a season it was!
👉 Beautiful people, a lot of snow, and countless moments under the aurora sky.

🥳 More than 12,000 guests joined our tours this winter.

That trust? We don’t take it lightly. We’ll keep giving our best to make each night count. For every guest, in every season.

We’re taking a well-deserved break in May, with summer tours running from June through August.

☀️ Arctic summer is full of long golden days, coastal drives, and nature at its wildest.

👉 We’d love to hear - what are your plans for the summer? Could the Arctic be part of it? 👇

❄️ Our winter season is almost over… but not just yet! ❄️

It’s peaceful. It’s playful. And it takes you right into the heart of Arctic nature. 🩵

🌌 BEHIND THE SCENES: HOW WE HUNT THE NORTHERN LIGHTS! 🌌
Seeing the Northern Lights isn’t just about waiting - it’s about knowing where to look.

👉 Every night, our team puts the effort into giving you the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights, because there’s so much more to it than just looking up!

Before the tour even starts, we’re already:
🗺️ Study the forecasts - we track weather, cloud coverage, and solar activity to find the best possible location.
🎯 Pack the essentials – thermal suits, hot drinks, and everything needed for a night under the Arctic sky.

Then, the hunt begins!
🚗 We leave the city lights behind, heading into the Arctic wilderness.
👀 Our guides scan the sky, watching for the first glimpse of green.
🔥 If we find a good spot, we settle in with a warm fire, delicious soup and hot drinks.
🌠 And when the sky finally lights up - it’s pure magic.

No two nights are ever the same, but that’s what makes it exciting! 🙏

📸 Check the album to see what an aurora hunt looks like behind the scenes!

🌌 APRIL & THE NORTHERN LIGHTS - LAST CHANCE THIS SEASON!
👉 April brings longer days, but the Northern Lights are still dancing in the Arctic sky.
👉 It’s a unique time of year - winter lingers, yet signs of spring start to appear.

🌌 Aurora season isn’t over yet.
Longer days don’t mean the aurora is gone. When night falls, the lights still dance.

❄️ The Arctic is in transition.
April offers a rare blend of winter’s magic and spring’s soft light.

🙏 One last adventure.
Our final Aurora Hunt of the season is on April 13th- the last chance to chase the lights before long days take over.

⏳ Time is running out!
