Whales, Khibiny and Sami on the Kola Peninsula: 4-day summer tour

We recommend arriving in Murmansk before 16:00 and checking into your hotel at a relaxed pace. The first evening begins in 17:00 with a meeting with the guide and an Arctic workshop: prepare scallops, crab, sea urchin and reindeer, taste homemade liqueurs and get into the rhythm of the trip.

After the workshop, until 20:00 there is time for extra park activities: SUP boards on the lake, quad bikes, husky walks, the sauna or dinner at the café. At 22:00 we arrange transfers to the hotels so you can rest before heading to the sea.

At 08:00 we leave Murmansk and head for Teriberka. We stop in the tundra along the way to take in the northern landscape and capture photos across the open spaces.

The day’s main highlights are a boat trip in search of whales and walks at Teriberka’s key locations. Between 11:00 and 18:00 we take in the Barents Sea, Battery Waterfall, Dragon Eggs Beach, a sandy bay, swings and the atmosphere of the old village. In the evening, we return to Murmansk to rest.

After an early start at 09:15 we head to Kirovsk. We explore two sides of Khibiny: first its history and minerals at the Apatite Museum, then the mountains themselves by jeep.

After lunch, at around 13:00 the most scenic part begins: mountain passes, rivers, lakes and Risjok Waterfall. We return to Murmansk by 20:00so you can end an active day at a relaxed pace.

After checking out of the hotel at 09:15 we head to Severnoe Siyanie Park. The pace is gentler, but the day is full of experiences: huskies, reindeer, a shaman’s tent, Sami games and stories about Indigenous culture.

From 10:00 to 14:00 the main tour program takes place, after which we return to Murmansk. For your flight home, we recommend booking tickets after 18:00so you can finish the itinerary without rushing.
