With stunning views surrounded by nature's wonders, Norway has activities for all ages in the summer. Summer is the perfect time to embark upon the trip of a lifetime to Norway’s wild Varanger peninsula, where the sea meets the sky in the far north-east of the country. There’s an edge-of-the-world feel, with immense lunar-like vistas threaded with fish-rich rivers and remarkable birdlife such as endearing Atlantic puffins. Up Norway can tailor a perfectly balanced itinerary for families, couples or groups of friends, with highlights such as a king crab safari (a catch is cooked for dinner), a Sami and reindeer experience, fishing at a remote wilderness lodge, and spectacular hiking tailored to every level. For an added dose of adventure, one can continue on to Svalbard, Norway’s legendary archipelago situated halfway to the North Pole and home to more polar bears than people.

One of Europe’s last great wildernesses, it’s a magical and unique place, with summer being the best time to experience the mind-boggling wildlife. As part of the trip, travelers can head out into the fjords on boat safaris and weave between sparkling icebergs to spot walruses, belugas and seals. At the end of every day, there is a cozy sauna waiting, along with delicious Arctic-inspired fare and a comfy bed. Another highlight offering for families is the epic 12-day Norway’s Arctic Circle Region: Myths and Marvels in Helgeland Journey. Inspired by Norwegian tradition and folklore, the journey includes magical natural phenomenons, arctic train adventures, and a deep dive into the Helgeland Myth, where it is said that long before people arrived in Helgeland, trolls were the masters of the region. Additional fun activities range from cultural experiences with the Samis, discovering Norway’s second largest glacier, and kayaking along the islets and reefs around Støtt.
