Rovaniemi to Kirkenes: A Polar Adventure Across the Arctic Circle

Embark on an extraordinary journey from Rovaniemi, Finland, to Kirkenes, Norway, crossing the Arctic Circle and delving into the wonders of the polar world. The adventure begins in Rovaniemi, the hometown of Santa Claus and the gateway to Arctic exploration. Here, you’ll board a polar research ship, navigating along majestic glaciers and snow-covered wilderness, immersing yourself in the mystique and grandeur of the polar region. In Kirkenes, you’ll have the chance to experience the thrill of crab fishing firsthand. Sail into the Arctic waters to catch the highly prized king crab, known as the "delicacy of the Arctic." The freshly caught crab will be prepared on board, allowing you to savor the authentic taste of the Arctic. At night, the sky is illuminated by the aurora borealis, the most mystical gift of the Arctic Circle. The vivid colors of the Northern Lights dance across the polar night sky, adding a touch of magic to your journey. Whether exploring the icy world or witnessing the awe-inspiring auroras, the Arctic Circle crossing from Rovaniemi to Kirkenes will leave you with unforgettable memories.
