Itinerary
Day 1. Arrival and Northern Lights Hunting This day will mark the beginning not just of a tour, but of a real little life lived in fast-forward mode - bright, soulful, and truly warm. People from different cities and different families will gather around one table. Each has their own story, their own path to this point. But what unites you all is the desire to spend the New Year holidays magically and unusually. You will sit down to dinner as strangers brought together by geography, but by tomorrow you will catch yourself thinking that you have known each other for an eternity. At 14:00, you will already be waiting at a cozy hotel, where our shared story begins. But the main miracle will happen closer to evening. At 18:50, we will meet you at the hotel to head to the welcome dinner. Around one large table, the awkwardness of the first minutes will fade: you will meet the guide, learn the names of your companions, exchange your first smiles, and realize that this group was chosen not by chance. This dinner is not just food; it is our family council, where we decide how to give each other the best trip. After dinner, we will head into the most mysterious part of the day - the hunt for the Northern Lights. We do not chase time; we chase magic, and we will depart exactly when satellite images show us the right way. On the way, hot tea with cookies will keep us warm, and while we gaze at the starry canvas, any shyness will finally melt away. Photos against the backdrop of the dancing sky will remain with you forever, but the main gift of this evening will be the feeling that in the harsh cold of the Arctic, you have found a northern family. Day 2. Journey to Kray Zemli At 09:00, we will head to where the land ends and infinity begins - to the most Kray Zemli, to the legendary Teriberka. The road will take about two hours, and every kilometer will distance you from the familiar world, immersing you in the severe and captivating beauty of the Arctic. You will see the tundra stretching 360 degrees around you - an endless space with not a single tree or shrub, only sky, earth, and wind. Here, time flows differently. We will stop at the Garden of Stones, where everyone can build their pyramid of wishes and make their deepest wish. They say that even stones know how to listen in this place. A bit further, we will encounter the wind farm - huge white wind turbines against the backdrop of the endless tundra look like aliens from another world. They seem to guard the entrance to Teriberka, reminding us that civilization is far behind. In Teriberka, we will visit: the cemetery of ancient ships. The hulls of vessels that once plowed these harsh waters now lie on the shore as silent guardians of centuries. They will make you hold your breath and feel the true grandeur of the North. The sandy beach of Barents Sea, where giant swings await you amidst the northern winds. As you swing, you will feel that between sky and earth, only you and this moment remain. Dragon's Egg Beach will surprise you with its mystical beauty - huge smooth boulders scattered along the shore create the feeling that you have landed on another planet. We will climb to the waterfall*, cascading among red rocks - the contrast of scarlet stone and white water will leave a vivid mark in your memory. *In winter, however, it may freeze. We will have lunch at a scenic restaurant on the shore of the Arctic Ocean. Here, behind glass walls, you can gaze endlessly at the vast expanse of water and feel how the breath of the Arctic fills every cell. We will return to the hotel around 18:00. After that - free time: walks, relaxation, or a cozy evening in the company of new friends. Attention! Important information for travelers During the visit to Teriberka, a walk of approximately 4 kilometers is planned. The terrain here is predominantly flat, with slight elevation changes. Please take this into account when planning your trip. We recommend taking care of comfortable footwear and weather-appropriate clothing in advance. Day 3. Program "Northern Character" Morning adventure: snowmobile safari in the kingdom of white silence and immersion in the lifestyle of the indigenous peoples of the North At 09:00 we will pick you up from the hotel and head to the ethnic park. There you will: learn about the culture and daily life of the ancient peoples of the North who have lived on this land for almost 3000 years; take photos with and feed the reindeer; ride a husky sled (optional extra fee); try on traditional Sami costumes You will also enjoy an exciting snowmobile safari across the endless snowy expanses of the Tundra Park. This is not just a ride — it is a complete immersion into the winter fairy tale of the Far North. Feel the sharp wind on your face and the adrenaline rush from the speed! Experience the breath of the North and absolute freedom among the snow-covered hills See the sparkling, endless tundra landscapes under the majestic polar sky Capture moments of unity with the pristine nature of the Russian North After this rich adventure, a warm welcome and an Arctic lunch await you: soothing herbal tea and dishes of authentic northern cuisine in a cozy atmosphere, including crab tasting Daytime extreme: Weightlessness in the icy embrace of Kola Bay Let's elevate our emotions with a new challenge! After a short rest — a unique experience of ice swimming in the waters of Kola Bay. It is safe, but incredibly extreme! Get unique sensations of weightlessness and lightness Experience incomparable delight from immersing yourself in icy water Enjoy a sense of total relaxation in a special waterproof thermal suit Take home impressive photos and a sea of unforgettable emotions After ice floating, we will go on a sightseeing tour. We will visit Abram Cape. Here is a memorial complex honoring the feat of the anti-aircraft gunners who defended Murmansk. From the equipped viewing platform, a breathtaking view opens up: both over the expanses of Kola Bay and the port docks, as well as over the central districts of the city. We will definitely reach the icebreaker Lenin. Its uniqueness lies in its absolute originality: it is the world's first surface ship powered by nuclear fuel, the first civilian nuclear-powered vessel, and the flagship from which the history of icebreakers began with
