Join us on a holiday to Tromsø
Tromsø, the territory of the fjords and the Northern Lights, is your stunning gateway to the Arctic.
There’s no place in the world quite like Tromsø. This Northern Norwegian town is one of the largest settlements north of the Arctic Circle, with its stunning icy landscape drawing travellers from all around the world.
The 973 square mile area is renowned for being a hotspot for the Northern Lights. Otherwise known as aurora borealis, these formations light up the sky from September to April every year. Given the sun does not rise in this part of the world between November and January, the darkness during these months will allow you to see the lights at their most beautiful. While you can sometimes spot these aural beauties from your Tromsø accommodation, you can get an even more vivid glimpse of them if you head away from the city lights.
For nature lovers, Tromsø is an ideal base to explore the surrounding environment of deep fjords, stunning coastline, and dramatic mountain peaks. There are also opportunities to spot local Norwegian wildlife including sea eagles, seals, whales, huskies, bears, and of course, reindeer.
