For this tour you will be picked up from the city center of Tromsø, from where you will be taken to the Tromsø Ice Domes, a 90-minute scenic bus drive away. Upon arrival, a host will welcome you and take you on an entertaining journey through the magical rooms of Tromsø Ice Domes. Each year, the snow - and ice sculptures portray typical Northern Norwegian themes such as Northern Lights, Sami culture and Arctic animals. They are beautifully displayed inside the domes with special light effects creating magical scenes. You will learn about the construction process of the domes, the impact the snow has on all life in the Arctic and have a non-alcoholic ice shot at the ice bar. As part of this guided tour, there will be some free time to walk around by yourself and visit the reindeer that are herding next to the Ice Domes. We will serve a traditional Norwegian soup or stew and hot drinks inside the domes before heading back to Tromsø by bus.

For this tour you will be picked up from the city center of Tromsø, from where you will be taken to Camp Tamok, a 90-minute scenic bus drive away. Upon arrival, you will be provided with warm clothes and other required gear for this snowmobiling activity. After this, we will go through the safety instructions and give you a practical demonstration on how to drive your own snowmobile. Due to the dramatic topography, a reduced speed is maintained during parts of the tour. You will drive in pairs, one driver and one passenger, on each snowmobile with the opportunity to switch places during the trip. Our snowmobile tracks will take you through the magical landscapes of scenic snow-covered mountains and valleys! After driving back down the trail and parking the snowmobiles, we will serve you a hot meal in a traditional North Norwegian setting around the open fire in a reindeer herder’s tent. During peak season we might split the group to avoid large groups. Half of the group will start with the hot meal in the traditional North Norwegian setting before heading out to the mountains on the snowmobiles. After relaxing and warming up, it is time to head back to Tromsø and tick another adventure off your bucket list! You will also get the option to book this activity excluding the bus transfer from Tromsø. When choosing this option, we expect you to arrive/leave by own transport at/from Camp Tamok.

We enjoyed this snowmobiling adventure! The activity was well organized. Transportation to the camp was smooth. When we got there we were equipped with snow suits, helmets, boots, and gloves. We then rode snowmobiles for about 1.5 hours (2 people to a snowmobile - switched drivers 1/2 way). The only downfall is there was one party in our group that wanted to ride more slowly than everyone else. The guides did their best to accommodate that party, while making sure the rest of us were having fun. We then went back and had soup and warm drinks in a lavvu before heading back to Tromso on the bus.

The ice dome was magnificent. The sculpting on the walls was just gorgeous. Lunch was good and you did get to look at the reindeer but there was no interaction. The star here is visiting the ice dome, seeing the sculptures and seeing how people would actually stay there overnight.

An awesome fun thing to do. You get to drive a snowmobile, instructed and led by cool guides. The terrain is winding and in beautiful countryside, surrounded by mountains and lit by the snowmobile headlights and, in our case, moonlight. Memorable!

Interesting sight! Also had some very educational pieces of information shared during the explanation. The staff we interacted with are very friendly and accommodating. Kudos to them!

Super ervaring, de toch duurt ongeveer 30 km en je doet er een kleine 1,5 tot 2 uur over omdat je gestaag rijdt. Je kan echt genieten van de omgeving.
