Your Travel Experience with ARRIVAL
Day 1
An Arctic Arrival
Land in the Arctic, where the sun hangs low and the air bites just right. Collect your ride (a Toyota Yaris Cross, unless you opt for an upgrade) and drift into the warm arms of the world’s northernmost city. Think harbour vibes, snug bars and an air of adventure. This is the gateway to the true north.
10 days of hire care included
Set your own pace across Norway’s Arctic north, from fjords to fishing towns, with ten days’ freedom behind the wheel.
Day 1 - 3
Thon Tromsø
A sleek, central stay that’s walking distance to Tromsø’s best coffee and polar history. Clean and practical – what more could you need?
Day 3 - 4
Sortland Hotel
Blue-hued Sortland stays as quiet as it is charming and this hotel has you right in the middle of it all. Expect views upon views, plus a bar that comes complete with its own reading library. Yes, please.
Day 4
Fjellheisen Cable Car (Tromsø)
Glide above Tromsø for epic views of Arctic peaks, islands and fjords. Spot sea eagles and watch the city glitter below.
Whale Watching Safari (Andenes)
Head offshore with marine experts to spot sperm whales, orcas and puffins on an unforgettable Arctic wildlife encounter.
Day 4 - 5
Thon Partner Hotel Andrikken
Quality buffet breakfasts, an on-site gym (should that be your thing) and the Thon’s signature modern interiors. Settle into this northern outpost after a day on the water – an idyllic post-whalewatch warm-up spot.
Day 5 - 7
Thon Hotel Svolvær
It’s sleek, it’s modern, it’s what you’ve come to expect of your Nordic stays. Think harbourfront minimalism with fjord-facing windows and splashes of colour injected into all rooms.
Day 6
Silent Trollfjord Cruise (Svolvær)
Drift through Trollfjord aboard a silent hybrid boat. Soaring cliffs, eagles above and underwater drone views below.
Day 7
Iconic Rorbuer Cabin Stay
Sleep in a traditional fisherman’s cabin by the sea, surrounded by Lofoten’s jagged peaks. A cosy slice of Arctic heritage.
Day 7 - 8
Statles Rorbusenter
This one is guaranteed to get a feature in your Instagram dump – classic Lofoten fishermen’s cabins so picture-perfect they almost steal the show from the dramatic coastal views classic. Expect rustic interiors and dodgy wifi.
Day 8 - 9
Thon Narvik
The Thon brand is like an old friend to you by now. Parking up front, functional modern rooms and an onsite restaurant in case you’re feeling room service. It’s the launchpad for your final leg – surrounded by sloping mountains and fjordland silence.
Day 9 - 10
Thon Tromsø
A sleek, central stay that’s walking distance to Tromsø’s best coffee and polar history. Clean and practical – what more could you need?
Day 10
Departure
Drop the car keys, grab a final Nordic roast and take one last breath of that Arctic air. You’re leaving with less iCloud storage, but a renewed sense of the world’s possibilities – mountains are magic like that.
