Dive into an Arctic adventure tour with our 2 Day King Crab Fishing package. This unforgettable experience includes an overnight stay at a delightful hotel, perfectly located in the centre of Kirkenes, Norway, and king crab fishing. Relax and explore the town, before you’re swept away on a snowmobile to sample one of the greatest Arctic offerings. The Arctic king crab. Get involved and cut the ice, catch the crab and – most importantly – eat the delicious meat at a cosy lakeside cottage. With transfers included, this really is the best way to get a taste of the action.
To make sure you get the best experience with the king crab fishing tour, your adventure begins with a bright and early start. Convenient and straightforward, our shuttle bus will take you straight to Kirkenes. Depart from either Ivalo, Kakslauttanen, Saariselkä, Muotka or Inari – the choice is yours.
Arriving at 11am, you’ll have a few hours to spare before you check-in. Where? Your accommodation will be either the Scandic or Thon hotel in Kirkenes – both are four-star hotels with superb reviews. The ideal location and high-quality facilities of the two fantastic options are sure to make your stay enjoyable, comfortable and memorable. Standard check-in is at 3pm, with some availability of early check-in.
Want your trip to be even more spectacular? As an optional extra, you can stay in the incredible Kirkenes Snow Hotel. This unique experience is completely encapsulating. Snows suites, ice beds and amazing snow sculptures. Although the frozen delights might suggest otherwise, the thick walls of snow provide plenty of insulation to protect you from the sub-zero outdoor temperatures.
Ready for action? Warm clothing and helmets will be provided, and at 5pm, you will be taken from your hotel to the awe-inspiring frozen fjords of Kirkenes. After a scenic trip, you’ll enjoy the truly unique experience of catching your very own king crab:
If all that isn’t enough, you then get to enjoy the feast. An exhilarating ride takes you back to a cosy farmhouse overlooking a gorgeous icy fjord. It’s here that you can unwind and discuss your unforgettable experience over a delectable meal of crab meat. With naturally sweet, succulent white meat, you can see why the king crab is such a highly sought after delicacy and why king crab safaris are so popular. Delicious!
You will return to your hotel at 9.30pm for a night of pure comfort and luxury.
