Snowmobiling, Ice Domes & Reindeer Visit - Excl. Transport
Enjoy an unforgettable snowmobile safari through magical snow-covered mountains, dramatic landscapes and scenic valleys. Learn how to drive “the scooter of the north” in a snowy wilderness playground.
Note: This option does not include bus transportation. Please arrive at Camp Tamok, 15 minutes prior to the start of the activity.
When you return from cruising in the snowmobile, join us on a guided tour through the Ice Domes. Marvel at the incredible ice sculptures and snow carvings, learn about the construction process of the domes, the impact the snow has for all life in the Arctic and have a non-alcoholic ice shot at the ice bar.
Experience the spectacular fun at our wilderness center, Camp Tamok, a 90-minute scenic drive from Tromsø city center.
Upon arrival, you will be provided with warm clothes and other required gear for this snowmobiling activity. After this, we will go through the safety instructions and give you a practical demonstration on how to drive your own snowmobile. You will drive in pairs, one driver and one passenger, on each snowmobile with the opportunity to switch places during the trip.
You will be on this snowmobiling adventure for approximately 2 hours, depending on the weather and snow conditions. As part of this combination tour, there will be some free time to walk around by yourself and visit the reindeer that are herding next to the Ice Domes.
