ACTIVITY CHASER

Want physical activities in silent surroundings – in the nature and in the snow. Want to learn and are environmentally conscious. Often travel with partner, rarely senior citizens. Travel budget is above average. Willing to pay extra for unique activities, but prefer slightly more affordable accommodation.

Want to participate in a number of activities, including whale watching, dog sledding, reindeer sledding, snowmobile safari and snowshoeing. Interested in local food and Sami culture. Own time often used to visit museums.

Gladly go on more than one Northern Lights excursion. Prefer smaller groups – knowledgeable guide, extra equipment and tips for photography are essential. Gladly combine Northern Lights experience with an activity (reindeer sledding, dog sledding, snowmobile safari, boat trip). Very positive about staying overnight in the nature.

Search less for information than average, but prefers to use Google and travel agent. Big users of Facebook and WhatsApp, but also others. Book virtually all components of the holiday separately on different booking sites. Generally book activities directly on the website of Visit Tromsø or the activity provider.
