The excursion

This New Year's tour is a true winter fairy tale, where the snow sparkles under the stars and every moment promises magic. The enchantment begins with an unforgettable night chasing the Northern Lights: experienced "hunters" will take you to where the sky is clearest, warm you up with hot tea, and gift you professional photos as a memory of Aurora. During the day, you will immerse yourself in the living culture of the North: the ethnic park will welcome you with the jingle of harnesses, friendly reindeer, Sami rituals, and a hearty Arctic lunch - as if you were guests at Ded Moroz's (Father Frost's) New Year residence. Then comes the journey to the most "Kray Zemli" location in Teriberka, where the endless tundra, ship graveyard, beaches with "dragon eggs," and a snow-covered waterfall will reveal their harsh grandeur, while the freshest gifts from Barents Sea will complete this magical day. New Year on this tour is the magic of night lights, the breath of snowy expanses, authentic traditions, and real miracles that will stay with you not only in memory but also in dozens of professional shots. Let this holiday be the beginning of your personal legend. Important information: The order of excursions in the program may change.

Этот новогодний тур - настоящая зимняя сказка, где снег искрится под звёздами, а каждый миг обещает чудо. Волшебство начнётся с незабываемой ночи в погоне за Северным сиянием: опытные «охотники» увезут вас туда, где небо чище всего, согреют горячим чаем и подарят профессиональные фото на память об Авроре. Днём вы окунётесь в живую культуру Севера: этнический парк встретит вас звоном упряжек, дружелюбными оленями, саамскими обрядами и сытным арктическим обедом - словно вы гости в новогодней резиденции Деда Мороза. А затем путь на самый «Край Земли» в Териберку, где бескрайняя тундра, кладбище кораблей, пляжи с «драконьими яйцами» и заснеженный водопад предстанут в своём суровом величии, а свежайшие дары Баренцева моря завершат этот сказочный день. Новый год в этом туре - это магия ночных огней, дыхание снежных просторов, аутентичные традиции и настоящие чудеса, которые останутся с вами не только в памяти, но и в десятках профессиональных кадров. Пусть этот праздник станет началом вашей личной легенды. Важная информация: Порядок экскурсий по программе может быть изменён

New Year Adventure in Kray Zemli

Itinerary

Day 1. ARRIVAL DAY AND NORTHERN LIGHTS HUNTING
You need to arrive by 18:00.
While you rest in the hotel or apartments, we are already planning the perfect route for chasing the Northern Lights. We choose a spot where the sky is guaranteed to be clear and the chances of seeing the green light are maximum.
At 21:00 we will meet you at the door of your accommodation and bring you back after the hunt. The adventure itself will last 4–6 hours: if the sky is cloudy, we are ready to drive up to 150 km away from Murmansk in search of clearings, but if the weather is good, everything will be nearby, within 40 km.
On the road, hot tea and cookies await you - we warm up between shots. We always bring professional equipment to take clear photos and videos for you. You will receive all materials the next day.
And the main advice: dress brightly! Night photography loves saturated colors - your photos will be vibrant.
Day 2. TRIP TO LEGENDARY TERIBERKA AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD
At 09:00 we depart from your address to where the land ends and the ocean begins. The road leads to Teriberka and the endless tundra, where the horizon closes in 360 degrees.
Along the way, breathtaking scenes await us:
A stone garden, where everyone can build their own pyramid of wishes.
An old ship graveyard.
The sandy beach of Barents Sea with giant swings soaring over the water.
The mysterious "Dragon Eggs" beach and Logovo Drakona.
A waterfall cascading among fiery red rocks.
By 13:00 we will stop for lunch at a restaurant right on the shore. You can order the freshest seafood to your taste - from king crab to halibut, scallops, and sea urchins. Perfect gastronomic accompaniment to a journey to the edge of the world.
The trip lasts about 10 hours. It depends on weather conditions and the pace of the group.
Attention! Important information for travelers
When visiting Teriberka, a walk of approximately 4 kilometers is planned. The terrain here is mostly flat, with slight elevation changes. Please consider this when planning your trip.
We recommend taking care of comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing in advance.
Day 3. JOURNEY TO SAMI PEOPLE, REINDEER AND HUSKIES
At 10:00 we start from your accommodation address and head to the Ethnic Park. Here you are not just a tourist, but a guest of the Arctic:
you will learn about the daily life and traditions of the Sami people - the indigenous people of the North;
feed the northern reindeer and take memorable photos with them;
ride a husky sled and interact with friendly dogs;
try on bright Sami costumes for colorful photo sessions;
have lunch in a cozy wooden chum with dishes of Arctic cuisine.
After lunch - free time for walks around the park and filming against the backdrop of endless expanses, followed by a comfortable transfer back to Murmansk.
The trip duration is 8 hours.
