Towards the Northern Lights

Unique tours to the tundra of Yamal and Murmansk to observe the Northern Lights

What awaits you?

Yamal

A unique place

Yamal — translated from the Nenets language as the edge of the earth. The journey begins from Salekhard, where the airport is located. Salekhard is a city on the Arctic Circle, the only city on the planet located at the latitude of the Arctic Circle 66 degrees, 33 minutes and 39 seconds North latitude. From here to the North Pole stretches the Arctic.

The symbol of the unique distribution was the 66th parallel stele. Here the continent of Eurasia ends and the Kara Sea begins, whose waters are indivisible with the Arctic Ocean.

Murmansk

Gateway to the Arctic

Murmansk is a harsh, northern city: the snow does not melt here for more than six months, the polar night lasts for almost a month and a half, and the short summer is often cloudy and rainy. The history of Murmansk began a little more than 100 years ago, in 1916 — this is the last city founded in the Russian Empire.

Today Murmansk is the largest city in the world, located beyond the Arctic Circle, one of the largest ports in Russia, the gateway to the Arctic. People come here to see gigantic nuclear icebreakers, the Northern lights and unforgettable sunsets, breathe in the salty air of the Barents Sea and understand the special beauty of the surrounding tundra, hills and lakes

Reviews

I liked everything very much, a great weekend full of impressions came out - the changing landscape and the northern beauty around. We were pleased with the weather - Murmansk met us with a wonderful dawn, and we flew away with a light frosty fog, so we managed to see different options - with a clear sky and when there are clouds, or almost nothing is visible. And although at night, when we were waiting for the radiance, the sky tightened - we were still able to find where it could be seen at least partially. It may be a little confusing here that the road time still turns out to be a decent two days, but even with this, the impression came out that we were a lot of places, saw a lot

Non-stressful comfort tour, I saw the tundra for the first time. The radiance was not caught, but I felt the edge of the earth, the end of all roads, the Arctic wind and the ice-free sea. The guys planned the program perfectly: a sauna, a walking route, local cuisine. Separately, I would like to mention the art of driving our chauffeur - Pavel. Winter roads in the pits were not felt by the body at all. The driver maneuvered professionally.

I have long dreamed of going to the North, a trip to Murmansk and hunting for the Northern lights were a priority. After reading stories and reviews on the Internet, I chose Tundra Tour from the whole variety of companies. In Murmansk, you can observe the Northern Lights at night. People from all over the world come to Murmansk to enjoy this miracle of nature!
