This tour is a highlight for arctic travellers. The tour starts in Honningsvåg, next to the local tourist information. We venture through rugged arctic scenery on our way to the North Cape, and will make photo stops along the way. If the Sami family are still awake we will pay them a visit and have a look at their reindeer. Finally at the North Cape we enter the North Cape Visitor center. You may enjoy a spectacular panoramic film, historical exhibitions and the cave of lights. You will also find a snackbar, a restaurant, an exclusive gift shop, a post office and a museum next to an ecumenical chapel.
If the sun, the clouds and the sky allow it we will experience Midnight Sun at the North Cape*. Regardless, the iconic globe, the North Cape visitor center and the majestic cliff are there to be explored. And just being there, at the northernmost of Europe, standing on the plateau of this famous cliff, overlooking the endless ocean, facing north, knowing that this place was perceived as the end of the known world, is truly an amazing experience.
You get to enjoy spectacular scenery, and we will make view stops along the way. All entrance tickets included.
