Full description

Discover the Tromsø Ice Domes on an overnight tour from Tromsø city. Explore the ice domes with a guide, spend the night in an ice hotel, and enjoy an opportunity to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Depart from the city center of Tromsø on a 90-minute scenic drive by bus to Camp Tamok and the Tromsø Ice Domes, located next to each other in the beautiful Tamok Valley.

After arriving, enjoy a guided tour through the Ice Domes. Marvel at the ice sculptures and snow carvings, learn about the construction process of the domes, and discover the importance of snow for all life in the Arctic. Finish your tour with a non-alcoholic ice shot at the ice bar.

Spend some free time exploring Camp Tamok and settling into your ice suite before your snowshoe hike. Before heading off, gear up with the provided warm winter clothing, boots, and snowshoe gear.

Hike out in the darkness with your guide and enjoy the night sky away from light pollution. On some nights, see the stunning Northern Lights before hiking to the nature camp. Relax by a campfire with your guide before heading to a warm facility where you can enjoy a 3-course dinner.

After dinner, hike back to the hotel and enjoy a magical night in your ice suite. In the morning, enjoy a traditional Norwegian breakfast before your dogsledding tour. Before heading out, meet your guide for safety instructions and a practical demonstration on how to steer your own sled.

Two people will share one sled and one dog team. One is the “musher” (driver), while the other can sit back and enjoy the ride. If your group includes children, each child must ride with one adult. Midway through your 1.5-hour adventure, switch places, so everyone can enjoy driving the sled.

After your sledding adventure, relax with a hot meal around an open fire in a reindeer herder’s tent before boarding the bus to return to Tromsø city center.

    This is the best organised trip I have ever been on. From the moment we stepped onto the coach to take us to the ice domes to the moment we left, all staff were so friendly and helpful, treated us so well, and did all they could to make this an enjoyable and comfortable visit. We did the snow shoe hike, overnight stay in the ice domes and dog sledding the next day. The activities were amazing, food was incredible, beds and temperatures comfy, and we were given lots of information and advice to stay warm along the way. I would not change anything!

    This was one of the most unique experiences in Tromsø. We loved every minute of it and was able to see an amazing northern lights show while we were there. The snowshoeing in the moonlight and the dogsledding in the morning was a lot of fun. Sleeping in the ice dome was difficult but they give you warm sleeping bags.

    Everything was perfectly organized, the guides were super friendly and helpful. The equipment provided for the snowshoe hike, the overnight stay in the ice hotel and the dog sled ride was of high quality and ideal for the activities booked. Only waiting for the return trip to Trømsø was uncomfortable in the little heated lounge.
