Notes:

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon that varies in intensity nightly. They can be very strong one day and very weak the next, or remain weak for a week. Even at high intensities, they may not be visible due to cloudy weather. We ask our guests to consider these possibilities when joining the tour. Since these factors cannot be predicted in advance, we stay two nights in Murmansk to increase our chances of seeing the Northern Lights. Our expert guide on the Northern Lights might decide to conduct the tour a day earlier if the likelihood of seeing them is high. Our guide checks all weather conditions before the tour to determine the best spots for viewing and drives us there. This spot could be nearby or an hour away. We will return to the hotel late at night after our Northern Lights Hunt.
Due to flight times, there is no hotel stay on the 5th night.

HUSKY PARK - NORTHERN LIGHTS

Day 3: HUSKY PARK - NORTHERN LIGHTS

We will set off for the Husky (Siberian Husky) and Reindeer Park. We will spend some enjoyable time with the friendly Siberian huskies, who have no biting instinct, and feed the reindeer. We believe that even those who have a fear of dogs will enjoy this visit and may even overcome their fear of dogs. Afterward, we will return to Murmansk to visit the Lenin Ship, the world’s first nuclear-powered icebreaker. Following dinner, we will head out to search for one of the most magnificent creations of the greatest artist and designer (Allah Almighty) — the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis). A professional photographer will accompany us on this special evening. If we are fortunate, we may witness this awe-inspiring natural phenomenon. After the tour, we will return to the hotel for accommodation.

Notes:

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon that can appear with varying intensity each night. Some nights they may be very strong, while other nights they may be weak or not visible at all. Sometimes, even if the activity is high, cloudy weather conditions can prevent them from being seen. We ask our guests to consider these possibilities when joining the tour. Since these factors cannot be known in advance, we stay two nights in Murmansk to increase our chances of seeing the Northern Lights. If our expert guide on the Northern Lights decides there is a high chance of seeing them, we might conduct the tour a day earlier than planned. Our guide will carefully check the weather conditions before the tour to identify potential viewing spots and arrange transportation to these locations. We will return to the hotel late at night after our Northern Lights Hunt.

ST. PETERSBURG

Day 5: ST. PETERSBURG

After breakfast at our hotel, we will visit Catherine Palace and the town of Pushkin. We will travel to Tsarskoe Selo, originally named "Tsar’s Village" and renamed during the Soviet era after the famous writer Alexander Pushkin. Constructed in the early 18th century as a summer palace by Empress Catherine I, wife of Tsar Peter the Great, Catherine Palace was severely damaged during World War II by Nazi attacks and was subsequently reconstructed. The interior and exterior decorations were completely redesigned by Catherine I’s daughter, Elizabeth, and later by Catherine the Great, using real gold in the decorations. Highlights of our visit will include the Throne Room, Dining Hall, Ballroom, and the Amber Room, which is adorned with 6 tons of amber. After this visit, we will proceed to the Hermitage Museum, which hosts thousands of invaluable artifacts from around the world. The museum was originally built as a winter palace by Empress Catherine the Great in the 18th century and today contains a rich collection within its 1057 rooms. After completing our day, we will have dinner and then head to St. Petersburg Airport.

Note: Due to the flight schedule, there will be no hotel stay this night.
