Northern Lights Voyage

Island Highlights
Tromsø - Svolvær - Tromsø

4 days/3 nights half board

SPECIAL LOW PRICES flying direct to Tromsø from Stansted

This wonderful short break begins in Tromsø, the capital of Arctic Norway, also known as the Paris of the North. Look to the sky in search of the Northern Lights, as we sail through the beautiful Vesterålen and Lofoten Islands.

We call at picturesque settlements en route and pass through Raftsundet, the narrow channel that links the two island groups that have inspired myths and legends over time.

Svolvær is an attractive little town with fashionable shops and attractions. In Svolvær, you will stay overnight in a centrally located hotel, where you have the opportunity to visit Norway’s first Ice Bar, which is complete with ice sculptures depicting life in this area. The mountains to the north, including the impressive Svolværgeita or Goat Mountain, provides a beautiful setting.
