Mystic Peru, From Lima to Machu Picchu.

May 2026

This is one of our key trips that we do every year. There is probably no other trip that would evoke feelings of magic, awe, and wonder as this one. Go up 250 km above the Arctic circle and take rides pulled by reindeer and huskies, in search for the magical Northern Lights. Stay in a gorgeous resort where glass igloos offer comfort and warmth while allowing you to wait for the Lights in your own bed! An experience of a lifetime that should not be missed!

We will b there in the Kaamos period:

“Kaamos is a mystical period between December and January when the sun does not rise at all. Nonetheless it is light from 10 AM till 3 PM (the light period lasts around five hours). White snow makes this period much lighter. Kaamos is a time of phenomenal Arctic light performance, during which the sky is blue when looking North and red when looking south.”
