Adventure Tips

Dress in layers to manage Arctic temperatures

Bring moisture-wicking and insulating layers as temperatures can swing dramatically, especially on snowmobile tours.

Prepare for limited cell service

Remote locations near the Arctic Circle often have spotty coverage; plan your communications accordingly.

Book tours early during peak seasons

High demand during summer and winter seasons means reservations fill quickly; secure your spot in advance.

Use sunscreen even in winter

Sunlight reflecting off snow intensifies UV exposure, so protecting skin is important year-round.
