Tours to Arctic
Arctic
Embrace your inner polar explorer and head north with Flight Centre’s latest range of Arctic tour packages. Whether you’re keen to spend your nights watching the sky come alive with northern lights viewing experiences, or are ready to uncover a new level of remote and rugged beauty with Arctic Circle expeditions and Fraz Joseph land exploration, there’s no shortage of breathtaking and thrilling experiences up in the icy north.
If animals are your thing, take your pick from some seriously epic experiences. Svalbard polar bear safaris are ideal for anyone hoping to see these majestic beasts in their natural habitat, while Spitsbergen wildlife tours offer prime opportunities to spot seals and seabirds frolicking amongst the fjords. On land, Canadian Arctic wildlife safaris will have you spotting caribou, musk oxen and Arctic hares. Alternatively, glide through snowy landscapes and live out your Christmas fantasies with Lapland Reindeer sledding.
Greenland ice cap adventures are perfect for hikers, with opportunities to get your steps up as you trek through ice formations and stunning glaciers. Iceland arctic experiences also serve up adrenaline in spades, with travellers exploring ice caves and glaciers before soaking in geothermal hot springs.
Finally, if you’d prefer to enjoy the scenery without the hard work, look no further than our selection of Norwegian Fjord cruises. Here you can marvel at towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and serene waters all while soaking up the comforts of a luxury cruise.

Spoiler alert: it’s gonna be cold. With this in mind, pack plenty of warm, layered clothing and some waterproof, insulated footwear. Socks, beanies and gloves will go a long way, too! If in doubt, your tour provider should have a more detailed idea of what to pack for your trip.
