Experience the thrill of snowmobiling through the remote Arctic wilderness surrounding Camp Tamok. Join us on a breathtaking journey through snow-covered landscapes, inaccessible by other means.
This tour is conducted by Norwegian Travel.
This option does not include bus transportation. Please arrive at Camp Tamok at 13:45 (1:45pm).
At Camp Tamok, you will be warmly greeted by your guide and outfitted with all the necessary gear and clothing, including thermal suit, boots, gloves and helmet. Our expert guides will provide thorough safety instructions on how to drive a snowmobile, ensuring everyone feels confident and safe before heading out on the tour.
Follow your tour guide and navigate along snowy trails, passing snow-covered mountains, valleys, frozen rivers, and lakes.
You will share a snowmobile with another person, taking turns as the driver and passenger. Halfway through the tour, we’ll have a short break where you'll swap places, ensuring both of you have the chance to drive the snowmobile.
To complete the experience, you can relax with a warm meal and drink by the open fire inside one of the lávvu (indigenous Sámi tent).
During peak season, we might split the group to avoid large groups. Half of the group will start with a warm meal in the lavvu before heading out on their snowmobile tour.
