Day 1 Welcome to Murmansk
Upon arrival in Murmansk, you will meet your guide and check into the Azimut Hotel.
You will then set out on a city tour to discover the highlights and history of this Hero City. You will visit the Monument to the Defenders of the Soviet Arctic, affectionately known as “Alyosha.”
From Green Cape Hill, you will enjoy sweeping views of Murmansk. At the memorial complex dedicated to sailors who perished in peacetime, you will see the deckhouse of the submarine Kursk, a ship’s anchor, and a hexagonal lighthouse.
You will enjoy lunch and dinner at local restaurants serving Arctic specialties such as fish, seafood, and northern berries. Meals are paid for on the spot. In the evening, you will return to the hotel to relax.
Overnight in Murmansk.
Day 2 Snowmobile and Boat Trip to Teriberka
After breakfast at the hotel, you will travel to Teriberka, a village on the coast of the Barents Sea (approx. 130 km). Along the way, there will be stops to photograph tundra landscapes and Arctic lakes.
Upon arrival, you will explore local attractions — partly by sleigh ride and partly on foot. Afterwards, you will set off on a two-hour boat trip. With luck, you may spot whales and other Barents Sea wildlife.
Later, transfer to Lapland Village glamping, where you will check in and enjoy dinner (payment on the spot). Take a walk around the forest grounds before settling in for the night.
Overnight in Lapland Village.
Day 3 Husky Park
After breakfast, you will head to Elan Husky Park, traveling through a scenic area often referred to as “Russian Lapland.”
You will arrive at the park by sleigh, where you will meet the huskies, learn about the history and characteristics of the breed, and enjoy a dog-sled ride across the tundra (two people per sled). You will also meet the Indigenous Saami people, discover their culture, and see reindeer.
You will be given traditional felt suits, designed to be both windproof and warm.
Lunch includes classic northern dishes: creamy Finnish fish soup (lohikeitto), rice with stewed reindeer, lingonberry pie, and herbal tea. A vegetarian option is available.
After lunch, you will be transferred to Murmansk Airport for your flight to Moscow. Please choose a departure time after 18:00.
