Today, drive along the Arctic fjords bound for Tromsø, former starting point of many North Pole expeditions.

You will be served hot drinks and you can grill sausages over an open  fire in side a Sami Tent (lavvo) while you wait for the lights. Outside you can lay down on reindeer skins or sit on chairs while you scout the dark sky for the lights. Your guide will answer any questions you may have and while there is is no guarantee of the Northern Lights, however visiting the 300 Alaskan huskies is well worth it. In the evening you will head back to Tromsø and enjoy a traditional sami reindeer stew (Biidos). Meals: B/D
