Call 01206 708888 or visit nordicexperience.co.uk. We offer holidays to Norway, Lapland, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Greenland, Spitsbergen and Denmark, the Faroe Islands and any combination of the above. From Northern Lights searches to whale watching under the midnight sun; from a weekend in the Art Nouveau treasure that is Alesund, to a guided journey along Norway's Geirangerfjord; from glacier w

alking to white water rafting, kayaking and hiking for all the family; we like to think we have holidays & tours, both self-guided or escorted in small groups, to suit just about every purse and passion. To many, searching for the Northern Lights, husky mushing, glacier snowmobiling, or a super jeep safari will be an adventure.

Any tour you choose from us has been designed by a team, one or all of whom, have been to the places featured in it. So when talking to us you’ll know you are doing so with somebody who has first hand knowledge of where you’ll be going. If you need advice on where to go and what’s right for you, ours will be completely unbiased because we’re the only UK travel company specialising in all the Nordic countries.

Last but definitely not least in our team, here’s our marvellous Debbie!

“Having worked in the travel industry for more years than I care to remember 😂, I have spent the last 10 years or so at Nordic Experience, and have been fortunate to travel to Norway, Iceland and Finland during that time. 🥰 Each destination has left its own lasting impressions, and standout moments, notably the first time I drove a dog sled in Norway – challenging but so much fun! 🐺

And then some of my most special memories when accompanying families on their journey to meet Father Christmas himself. 🎅 There is something truly wonderful about witnessing a child’s reaction when they say, “I’ve just met the real Father Christmas.” The joy, excitement and wonder shared by families in that moment is nothing short of magical. 🤩

Beyond this unforgettable encounter, Lapland offers a wealth of winter activities. ❄️ Take control of your own husky sled team across frozen wilderness or race across snow-covered lakes by snowmobile. Visit reindeer with their Sámi herders and learn about their traditional way of life. 🦌There is also plenty of time for simple winter pleasures such as tobogganing, building snowmen and friendly snowball fights. 🌌And, if luck is on your side, you may even witness the Northern Lights dancing across the Arctic sky — an unforgettable natural spectacle that never fails to impress. 😍”

Keeping the team introductions going, it’s time to meet Natalia!

“Hi, I’m Natalia! 😄 I joined Nordic Experience three years ago, and since then I’ve had the chance to explore the Nordic countries more closely and completely fall in love with them. ♥️

🌍 I’ve always loved travelling, discovering new cultures, and learning about local traditions, and every trip has made me want to come back for more and recommend these amazing places to all my friends and family. 🤩

⛰️ The Faroe Islands were unlike anywhere I’d ever been before. Dramatic cliffs, colourful villages, and incredible nature everywhere you look , it’s a truly special place. 🏞️ One of my favourite experiences was visiting local farmers and spending time with the people who live there. Getting a real taste of the local food and culture made the trip feel much more personal than simple sightseeing. It’s the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. ☺️

🇳🇴 Norway completely stole my heart. From the fjords and mountains on the mainland to the wild and remote landscapes of Svalbard, every part of the country feels different. 🏔️ In Svalbard, I had the chance to cruise all the way to the northernmost point, take a dip in the Arctic Ocean (yes, it was freezing, but absolutely worth it 😂) and experience the midnight sun, where the sun never sets and time almost feels unreal. 🌅 I was also lucky enough to spot a polar bear and other Arctic wildlife in their natural habitat, which is something I’ll never forget. 🐻‍❄️

For me, the Nordic countries are a never-ending discovery. 🥾 The nature, history, food, and especially the warmth of the people make every visit memorable, and there’s always something new to experience. 🥰 If you’re dreaming about a Nordic adventure, my team and I would love to share our knowledge and help you create a trip you’ll never forget!”

Say hello to another face behind the Nordic team… introducing Ana! 🩵

“Hi, I’m Ana 😊 I joined the Nordic Experience team in 2024 and have always had a strong connection with the Nordic world and way of life. Having grown up in a northern city close to Scandinavia, I’m very familiar with Nordic climate, culture, long winter nights, and the magic of the midnight sun. ❄️🌅

✈️ I have always loved travelling and discovering new places, and I really enjoy helping people plan their dream trips and create unforgettable memories. 🥰 I especially love creating unique tailor-made itineraries filled with unusual adventures and authentic moments.

⭐️ Some of my favourite experiences I’ve helped arrange for clients include watching golden eagles in the Finnish wilderness, halibut fishing in the Norwegian fjords, meeting puffins in the Faroe Islands, and sailing among icebergs in Greenland! 🤩 I believe the most memorable trips are the ones that feel a little different and allow people to experience nature in a special way.

🇮🇸 One place I would personally love to visit is Iceland. The landscapes look incredible — volcanoes, glaciers, waterfalls, geysers, ice caves, and whales all in one destination. It seems like the perfect place for nature lovers and adventure seekers. ⛰️ I’m always happy to help people discover the beauty of the Nordic region and find experiences they will remember for years to come ✨”

Continuing with the team profiles we have … Me! 😂

“Hello 👋 I’m Sophia and I have been at Nordic for 3 years!

I recently had the chance to visit the Christmas markets in Stockholm, Helsinki and Tallinn and it was absolutely magical 🤩. They really know how to do Christmas properly over there, with incredible local handicrafts and the biggest Christmas trees, which I loved! 🎄

♥️ My favourite trip, however, has to be my trip to the Finnish Lakelands. The scenery was beautiful, the people were so lovely and welcoming, and experiencing the midnight sun was something really special. 🌅 As a very active person, I loved getting stuck into hiking and biking while taking in the stunning landscapes. 🥾

🛤️ I particularly enjoy creating itineraries that go a little more off the beaten track, discovering new places and unique experiences to make each trip feel different. ☺️ I’m always excited to put together something special for you and love a challenge!”

Next up on our team introductions is the wonderful Grace! ⭐️

“Hi, I’m Grace, and I’ve been part of Nordic Experience since 2024 👋

🌍 Having travelled extensively around the world, I love helping people discover the Nordic countries. There’s always something new and special to experience, and every trip feels like the perfect mix of stunning nature, fascinating culture, and unforgettable moments! ☺️

💚 I’m a huge foodie at heart and love discovering authentic local flavours - from cosy cafés hidden away in Scandinavian cities to fresh seafood enjoyed by the water🦞. When I’m not exploring new cuisines, you’ll usually find me out hiking, while taking in breathtaking scenery ⛰️ or seeking out a classical concert or opera recital.

😍 I’m especially drawn to the beauty of the Swedish Archipelago Islands, the dramatic landscapes of the Norwegian fjords, and the vibrant energy of Scandinavian cities - especially Copenhagen! Whether it’s wandering colourful streets, relaxing in a traditional sauna with peaceful coastal views, or discovering hidden trails on foot, I’m always looking for new experiences for our clients to discover. 🏞️

Currently on my Nordic wish list is to play the Lofoten Links Golf Course under the midnight sun in Norway ⛳️ and ride an Icelandic Horse across the Lava Fields in Iceland 🐴. I love creating exciting, tailor-made itineraries 🚉🚙 and sharing the very best that Scandinavia has to offer!”

So you’ve met our locations …. Now it’s time to meet the Team! Starting with our lovely Mecia 🤩

“Hi, I’m Mecia. I joined Nordic Experience in 2019 – I always loved the look of Scandinavia and have become more obsessed with it since I have been part of the company. 😊

🗺️ I have travelled both on FAM’s & on my own holidays to Iceland, Sweden, Denmark, Finland & Norway. 🇮🇸 Iceland was incredible visiting both Reykjavik on one occasion & Akureyri most recently, with the new direct Easyjet flight which operates over the winter.

It’s safe to say however I am Norway obsessed 😊 My last trip was this month, which was my 7th time in Norway. It involved some time in Lofoten – in my opinion one of the most stunning places in Norway! 🏔️ As well as an itinerary in the South travelling from Stavanger to Kristiansand; this took me by surprise as this is a region less well known but also stunningly beautiful – gorgeous coastlines, typical Norwegian fishing huts & villages as well as dramatic landscapes. 🏞️

These are some of my highlights from over the years. I absolutely love working on tailormade itineraries & look forward to putting something together for you! ✈️”

😄 Thought we were finished? The Nordic world extends well beyond the four main destinations, and some of the most remarkable experiences lie a little further off the beaten track! 🗻

🇳🇴 Svalbard sits deep in the Arctic at 78° north, offering glaciers, polar wildlife and fjord scenery on a frontier scale. 🐻‍❄️ It's the kind of destination that stays with you long after your trip…

🇬🇱 Greenland is growing in profile amongst adventurous travellers, with vast ice sheets, breath-taking icebergs and remote settlements set against some of the most dramatic fjord scenery on the planet. ❄️ It is a truly one-of-a-kind destination.

🏔️ The Faroe Islands offer rugged North Atlantic clifftops, intimate village life and a landscape that has a habit of stopping people in their tracks. 🦅 Increasingly popular with photographers, hikers and independent travellers seeking something a little different.

✈️ All of these work as a stand-alone destination, but also combine beautifully with Norway, Sweden, Finland or Iceland for a longer Nordic journey!
