His story

XXX

SELAR'S NORTH STAR

Level

This trip is ideal for photography lovers. You’ll be amazed by the colors of the sky. Bring your camera gear and let yourself be guided by the very best.

Note that the trip will offer a wide range of outdoor activities.

A good level of skiing is required, but you don’t need to be an expert in ski touring — quite the opposite. Groups may be organized so that everyone can enjoy the experience at their own pace or even choose other activities like hiking.

Please note that certain activities — such as the polar plunge into extremely cold waters — may require participants to have no known heart conditions.

A medical certificate may be requested.

Exclusive expedition

Each expedition is unique, and our small size allows us to tailor the journey to the desires of our passengers and their willingness to push their limits.

Each daily activity will be divided into small groups, with a guide for each. It's the adventure of a lifetime, and our crew is here to support you building infinite memories.

The pros

Ship powered by wind and sun 90% of the time. (visit The Ship page of our website to know more)

Fresh meals prepared on site with local food as much as possible

Low carbon adventures

No vibrations nor sound underwater for the wildlife

The cons

Tromsø is a small, remote town, and most travelers arrive here by plane. You can reach this location by train if you have the time to make the journey, and we're happy to help you with this.

Payment terms

Two options:

- Pay 100% at the time of booking.

- Pay a 10% deposit at the time of booking, 30% deposit 12 months before the expedition departure date and with the remaining 60% due 4 months before.
