Rishi • traveled in March
It was the most best adventure of my life! Norway has just steal my heart and arctic fjord mountains during the Arctic Cruise Tour was mind blowing. The Rendeer Tour + meet the Sami people was a great experience. You will get to know how they live and survive in the winter season. The Northern Lights tour was great, but tiring. It was a cloudy week around Tromso and we drive about 6 hours long. So you need to be lucky to see the lights. The organization did very well to contact me and to arrange everything together. Nordiva Tours, Tamara was such a kind person to talk to. She is ready for me to arrange very fast for the hotel and the tours. Norway at Tromso is a must to explore around. At February was a breathtaking experience in Norway. You see that the country is full of snow and ice! Very much a like Winter wonderland. I will be back next year in the summer season!
