Alta is famous for viewing Northern Lights and in fact the first Northern Lights observatory was built here. It is also the largest city in the Northernmost county along the Altafjord. We visited Alta and Tromso for a week to see the Northern Lights and we were not disappointed. This blog is my own personal experience and has all the informati...

Tromsø is the largest city in the north above the Arctic Circle and one of the best places to start your Arctic adventure. It is one of my favourite cities and if I have to visit only one city in Norway, Tromsø will be my first pick every time. There are a number of reasons why you should visit Tromsø and some of those I will explain...

Segla hiking trail is one of the most popular hikes in Norway. Over the years, its popularity has skyrocketed due to its widely shared pictures on social media but most of those pictures are not taken from Segla but from the neighbouring Hesten peak which has the postcard view of Segla and surrounding mountains. I have...

The Island of Senja is located between Tromso and Lofoten. The nature of Senja is unparalleled and as beautiful as its more touristy neighbouring Lofoten islands. Over the years, I have visited Norway extensively and Senja is one of my favourite places in Norway, maybe due to the fact that I had seen here the most intense display of ...

Kvalvika Beach  on Lofoten Islands deep inside the Arctic Circle is a gem. Its turquoise water, white soft sand and Jaw-dropping mountain scenery are breathtaking.

Reinebringen, the most popular and iconic hike in the Lofoten islands with its stunning views of the villages of Reine, Hamnoy and Sakrisoy is one of the must-do hikes in Norway. During the peak season, it is a very popular hike thanks to widely shared pictures on social media. The previous path was very steep, muddy and dangerous and the trek...

Northern lights (Aurora Borealis), is a dream of many people to see at least once in their life. Tourists from different parts of the world travel to Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and Alaska to see this incredible natural phenomenon during the dark and cold Arctic winter. I have been lucky to see the ...

Norway , what can I say about this ridiculously beautiful country. First time I visited in 2011 and ever since I have visited regularly in summer and winter, it is by far my favourite country in the entire world. The land of the midnight sun, northern lights, glaciers, fjords and friendly people.  This 10 days itinerary will take you to the be...
