Lapland Highlights premium small group tour: 10 days across Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish Lapland, capped at just 12 travellers.

The nights alone tell the story: an ice room at the original ICEHOTEL in Swedish Lapland, three nights at the boutique Cahkal Hotel near the Arctic Ocean, and three more under a glass igloo roof in Levi. In between, a stop in Tromsø, which moves into the Aurora zone every evening from 6pm.

By day: ice sculpting with local artists, a snowshoe trek through quiet forest, a snowmobile safari with ice fishing on a frozen river, and a husky safari where you and a partner take turns driving your own team. A 50 Degrees North tour leader travels with the group throughout.

Two ways to chase the Northern Lights – and see much more along the way.

Want to experience the Aurora but don't want the trip to be all about waiting for the sky to light up?

These two small group journeys combine Northern Lights opportunities with some of the best experiences across Norway and Finnish Lapland.

Experience the Northern Lights – 15 days

Oslo to Ivalo, travelling through Norway and Finland. Ride the Flåm Railway, spend a night in Bergen, sail north aboard a Havila coastal voyage, meet local Sámi herders, go on a King Crab safari and spend three nights under a glass roof in Finnish Lapland.

Chase the Northern Lights Express – 11 days

Ivalo to Bergen, with the glass-roofed nights and King Crab safari, followed by a southbound coastal voyage through northern Norway, past Tromsø and the Lofoten Islands. Both are small group tours with guaranteed departures, and both are designed so that the journey itself is just as memorable as the Aurora.

Hosted by Nordic specialist 50 Degrees North.

From AUD $9,300 per person, twin share.

The Northern Lights are only half the story.

If you're thinking about chasing the Aurora during a European autumn or winter, the tour you choose can make a big difference.

Look beyond the Northern Lights promise and check:

- Group size: genuinely small groups make the experience more personal

- Where you stay: glass-roofed cabins, ice hotels and boutique Arctic stays can become part of the adventure

- How long you stay: more nights in the right locations means more opportunities for clear skies

- What's beyond the Aurora: huskies, reindeer, local food, fjords and Arctic landscapes make the journey memorable even when the skies don't cooperate

- What's included: winter clothing, meals and activities can make a big difference to the true cost of the trip

I have a selection of Northern Lights small group tours across Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, with guaranteed departures and groups capped at 12–18 travellers.

Hosted by Nordic specialist 50 Degrees North.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! 💙✈️

To the dads who somehow become the official:

🧳 Suitcase lifter
🗺️ “I know where I’m going” navigator
💸 Holiday ATM
📸 Reluctant family photographer
⏰ Airport alarm clock
🍟 Finisher of everyone’s leftovers
😎 And the man who says “we’re not buying anything at the airport”… then buys something at the airport 😂

And of course, the classic:

“Dad, are we there yet?”
“We’ll get there when we get there.” 🤣

Here’s to the dads, grandads, stepdads and father figures who carry the bags, tell the terrible jokes and help make the best travel memories. 🌎💙

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at italktravel & Cruise Brighton! ✈️
