FLIGHT PARIS/TROMSO + TRANSFERS + FLIGHT TROMSO/PARIS
Set off aboard Le Bellot for a brand-new 11-day cruise and enjoy an exceptional experience exploring Norway in the winter. From Tromso, you will sail towards these magical lands, where your exceptional itinerary will take in snow-capped summits, immaculate landscapes and the discovery of millennial traditions.
The beginning of this trip beyond the Arctic Circle will be marked by an immersion in the land of the Sami. From your disembarkation in Narvik, in the very heart of captivating summits plunging into the sumptuous Ofotfjord, you will be invited to explore the ancestral tales of this reindeer-herding indigenous people.
Your ship will then make its way south where you will witness the mysterious charm of the Lofoten archipelago. These islands have landscapes of surreal beauty alternating between sea, spectacular fjords, mountain slopes and bright-coloured huts on stilts.
After an unforgettable cruise through the magical Trollfjorden, a sound separating the two archipelagos in the north of the country, Le Bellot will set sail for Hammerfest, the northernmost town in the world. During your port of call in this charming fishing port, you will have the opportunity to explore the Struve Geodetic Arc, a chain of triangulations stretching from Norway to the Black Sea, and the first technical and scientific tool to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
You will also sail by Bear Island, halfway between the North Cape of Norway and the South Cape of Spitsbergen. From your ship, you will marvel at this small strip of land with its craggy coastline and high jagged cliffs.
Le Bellot will once again set sail south, for the captivating Honningsvag. This port of call will take you to the northernmost point of Europe: the North Cape. On this cliff, home to the emblematic Milestone, a globe-shaped monument, allow yourself the time to dream as you gaze upon the vastness of the Barents Sea.
You will then discover Alta. With the polar night in full swing, you may be lucky enough to admire the unique colours of the Northern Lights as they ripple and spin above the Arctic Circle.
Your trip into the very heart of the immenseness of the Norwegian Arctic polar world will end in Tromso, your disembarkation port.

Departure 1/3/2024 at 6:00 pm
In the north of the Arctic circle you’ll discover Tromsø, a secluded town located in the county of Troms. Norwegians call it the “Paris of the north”. You’ll soon see why when you discover its extensive neoclassical architectural heritage. A stunning example is the Arctic cathedral, a major monument whose stylistic purity echoes the outline of the mountains surrounding the town.
2 March 2024 - Narvik
Arrival 2/3/2024 early morning
Departure 2/3/2024 early evening
Beyond the Arctic Circle, you will discover Narvik, nestling in the heart of impressive mountains that plunge into the Ofotfjord. It is on the verge of obtaining the “sustainable destination” label, a national label awarded to destinations that are committed to a sustainable approach to tourism for the long term. You will be mesmerised by its scenery. From Narvik, it is possible to take the Ofoten Line towards Sweden. This historic railway once linked the mineral-rich mines of Kiruna in Sweden to the ice-free port of Narvik. You will experience unique moments whether meeting the Sami people ─ reindeer herders who have ancestral traditions and yet embrace modernity.
3 March 2024 - Reine, Lofoten
Arrival 3/3/2024 early morning
Departure 3/3/2024 late evening
Way beyond the Arctic Circle, Lofoten Islands are truly considered to be in “another world”. A jewel of nature in its most pristine state, this archipelago with its jagged coastline offers you majestic settings of high alpine summits, sandy beaches, green prairies and fjords of a deep blue, where countless bird colonies make their nests. Whether you visit Å, or Nusjford, listed by UNESCO, enjoy authentic and memorable moments.
4 March 2024 - Sailing in Trollfjorden
Arrival 4/3/2024 early morning
Departure 4/3/2024 early morning
According to legend, trolls were the guardians of this 2-km long fjord accessible via the Raftsund Strait, between the Vesterålen Archipelago and the Lofoten Islands. Dominated on both sides by vertical rock faces that stand up to 1,000 metres high in parts, Trollfjorden welcomes you in a magical atmosphere which its narrowness helps to create. During this unforgettable journey, you will indeed have the impression that you’re grazing the surrounding mountains and that you’ll never see the end of this marine cul-de-sac. After a delicate U-turn, your ship will finally head back in the opposite direction: this will perhaps be the opportunity to observe, for want of trolls, seals and eagles, which are often present in this site, unique on earth.
5 March 2024 - Hammerfest
Arrival 5/3/2024 early morning
Departure 5/3/2024 midday
Hammerfest, located on the north-western coast of the island of Kvaloya, beyond the 70th parallel north, is often considered the northernmost town in the world. Conserved in an immaculate natural setting, this charming fishing port enjoys a rich history, as is evidenced by various vestiges dating back to the Stone Age, Napoleonic wars or the Second World War. During your port of call, you will have the opportunity to discover the Struve Geodetic Arc, a chain of triangulations stretching across Europe from Hammerfest to the Black Sea, and the first technical and scientific object to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
6 March 2024 - Sailing along Bjornoya (Bear Island)
Arrival 6/3/2024
Departure 6/3/2024

From your ship, observe this isolated piece of land discovered in 1596 by the Dutch navigator Willem Barents, then looking for the Northwest Passage. Following a tough fight between a polar bear and the members of the expedition, he dubbed the place Bear Island. Regularly covered by a thick layer of fog, Bjørnøya shelters a meteorological station built in 1923, which is still in operation. Declared a nature reserve in 2002, the island is above all home to an enormous colony of sea birds: skuas, guillemots, puffins, Tridactyl gulls, petrels, gulls and little auks all coexist here.
7 March 2024 - Honningsvag
Arrival 7/3/2024 midday
Departure 7/3/2024 early evening
If you feel like you have arrived at the end of the world in Honningsvåg, it is because this is the case. Halfway between Oslo and the North Pole, it competes with Hammerfest for the status of “the northernmost town in Continental Europe”. Colourful houses light up this charming and typically Norwegian fishing port nestled in the hollows of the region’s mountainous terrain. Travellers come to stay in the village to go to the North Cape. At the end of the road, you will see the globe that indicates that you are at the very end of Europe. At this point, only the Svalbard archipelago separates you from the North Pole. There is sea as far as the eye can see. The Northern Lights, the view of the immense cliff plunging into the sea, the thousands of puffins, gannets and cormorants that spin around you: everything here is grandiose.
8 March 2024 9 March 2024 - Alta
Arrival 8/3/2024 early morning
Departure 9/3/2024 early evening

The region offers a mix of forest, mountainous and coastal landscapes. It is on the verge of obtaining the “sustainable destination” label, a national label awarded to destinations that are committed to a sustainable approach to tourism for the long term. Alta invites you to experience unique moments, whether meeting the Sami people ─ reindeer herders who have ancestral traditions and yet embrace modernity ─ or during walks, snowshoe hikes or dog sledding, depending on the season.

Arrival 10/3/2024 early morning
Disembarkation 11/3/2024 at 8:00 am

On a clear night, the northern lights may manifest themselves as faint wisps of colour or great dancing, shimmering curtains of light over the boreal forests and tundra. Ideal conditions include clear night-time skies and sufficient solar activity, as the phenomenon occurs when electrically charged solar particles in the atmosphere interact with Earth’s magnetic field. There is no guarantee that the unpredictable lights will be visible.
Prior to departure, your expert guides will study the forecast to best predict where and when the lights will appear.

History of Hammerfest

Your tour commences with a scenic coach drive through the streets of Hammerfest, the world's northernmost town. Also known as the Hiroshima of Europe, Hammerfest was reconstructed after World War II, when the town was completely destroyed by fire during the withdrawal of the German troops in Finnmark County.

It will be a particularly enriching moment during which you will learn all about the heritage of this people, a heritage that these days can still be found in Lapland’s architecture, contemporary art and culinary traditions. For centuries, the Sámi have built their way of life around reindeer breeding and herding; the reindeer are bred mainly for their antlers, fur and milk. The Sámi are also renowned for their traditional handicraft, known as Duodji, which has been passed down for generations.
Thanks to this activity, you will enjoy a genuine experience of the life of the Sámi and their day-to-day in Swedish Lapland. You will drink freshly boiled coffee around the fire in a lavvu (Sámi tent), before heading out to meet the reindeer.

History of Hammerfest
Gain a thorough understanding of the history of Hammerfest during this tour that visits the Museum of Reconstruction.
Your tour commences with a scenic coach drive through the streets of Hammerfest, the world's northernmost town. Also known as the Hiroshima of Europe, Hammerfest was reconstructed after World War II, when the town was completely destroyed by fire during the withdrawal of the German troops in Finnmark County. Sadly, only the tiny chapel in the graveyard remained.
Adjacent to the Hammerfest Church resides the newly erected Museum of Reconstruction, where you will enjoy a visit inside the museum. This inspirational museum aims to show human determination to conquer and overcome the destruction created by war and create a new future. The exhibitions give visitors an inside look at the life and culture of Finnmark County before the war, the living conditions of refugees and the optimism that characterized the reconstruction years after the war.
Following your visit to the museum, you will re-join your coach for a short ride towards Salen, where you will be treated with views towards the town and surrounding islands. If you're lucky, you may observe herds of reindeer, the domestic animals of the Sami people.
