Sweden Express: Northern Lights in Lapland
The trip in a nutshell
Self-driven tour
This is a self-driven tour - it isn’t compulsory to drive, however if you are willing to, then please tick the box when booking your trip.
Let's embark on an exciting winter journey, commencing in Stockholm, the vibrant capital of Sweden. You might wonder why we're starting our Arctic adventure so far from Lapland. The reason is simple: Stockholm is easily accessible by air, and from here, we'll set off on an unforgettable adventure through snowy landscapes by boarding a remarkable night train – an adventure in itself. This train ride will smoothly carry us across the country, ensuring we make the most of our time. Our final destination, upon waking up, is Luleå, located right on the doorstep of Lapland, where we'll experience the magic of the Northern Lights. The Arctic conditions are ideal here, offering us a chance to witness this natural wonder in its full glory. With nearly 24 hours of winter darkness, our days will be filled with thrilling activities, from snowmobiling to icebreaker cruises. And after braving the Arctic chill, we can find comfort in saunas or by a crackling fireplace, sipping on steaming hot chocolate. Are you ready for this extraordinary adventure in the far north?
