Embark on a day-long adventure in Tromsø, snowmobiling, followed by a visit to the magical Ice Domes Park, and get up close with the festive reindeers!

Embark on a day-long adventure in the Arctic, combining a snowmobile safari, followed by a visit to the magical Ice Domes Snow Park in Tromsø, and get up close with the festive and majestic reindeers!

Combine an all-in-one package, for a fulsome day in the winter wonderland of Northern Norway, situated north of the Arctic Circle. Set among the high mountains, and a snow-covered valley, the Ice Domes are home to some incredible ice sculptures and impressive snow carvings.

Your adventure begins with a pick-up from the city center in Tromsø, where you will embark on a 90-minute scenic ride, admiring the mesmerising landscapes and white-washed mountains of the Arctic. Upon arrival, you will receive warm overalls, and follow a safety briefing and a practical demonstration for using the snowmobiles. Then, it is time to head out and set off for an unforgettable snowmobile safari in the Arctic wilderness!

You will ride through the breathtaking snow-covered mountains, along dramatic landscapes, and scenic valleys! Each snowmobile will be shared between two participants, one driver, and one passenger, with the opportunity to switch places during the trip. The overall duration of the snowmobile safari depends on the weather and snow conditions of the day, and it could last from 1 hour to 2 hours.

After the ride, you will relax by the roaring fire in a traditional reindeer herder's tent, and enjoy a delicious and locally produced warm meal. Once you've recharged, you will head to the Ice Domes Snow Park, where you will discover the magic of the snow and ice sculptures. Wander around the mesmerising displays of snow and ice sculptures, and a snow maze, and explore the two domes. Marvel at the amazing art coming to life with light in its natural surroundings of pristine nature and peaceful Arctic landscapes.

You will also have some free time to meet the reindeers before heading back to Tromsø.

Book your Ice Domes Visit, and combine your day with a snowmobile safari, and meet the festive reindeers, important to the Arctic region and Tromsø!

Professional guides, equipment in superb conditions, the provided clothing was excellent and very clean, good food in cosy cabin; the ice dome very amazing, enough time to stroll along and look into each room; a bit disappointing were the reindeer since was a very small group of only 4-6 animals

This was an excellent experience for a first-time snowmobiler. The guide was very clear with the operation instructions and was very attentive to the group out on the trail. We stopped at a nice spot to take pictures. Back at the camp, we had a nice lunch and hot beverages in a lavuu. The ice domes are amazing, such detailed carvings. The movie, which is about the construction of the domes, was very interesting.

The whole day was amazing, the snowmobiling was the highlight of course, really great instructor and the views as you went along was like being in Narnia. We were on the snowmobiles for about an hour which was a good amount of time. A lovely spot half way round to stop and rest and take in the views too. Lunch in the cabin was very cosy. The snow domes are well worth a visit, a huge amount of effort goes into making this! The reindeer part was slightly underwhelming as most are out doing the sledging, you literally see a handful of babies for 5 minutes or so. But still, nice to see them. My only gripe was having to pay adult prices for my two children as they didn’t get to drive the snowmobiles as they are under 18. There should be a cheaper price for under 18s as they are only passengers, not drivers but have to pay the same price.
