4-day Murmansk and Teriberka tour with Northern Lights outings

Season: September 2026 – March 2027

Arctic Highlights gives you four days to see the Barents Sea coast, visit a Sámi village and explore Murmansk, with two evening outings to look for the Northern Lights. The group programme starts in Murmansk, Russia, and includes transport to the excursions and back, plus an English-speaking assistant. You arrange your accommodation separately.

What the fourth day adds

The extra day is for Murmansk and the museum aboard the Lenin icebreaker. Explore the city and waterfront with your guide, then step on board for the museum visit. Admission is included. The included shared museum tour is in Russian, without simultaneous interpretation.

This is the main difference from Aurora Nights, our three-day tour. If you are deciding how long to stay, our three-day or four-day Murmansk itinerary guide compares what fits into each trip.

The coast, the village and two aurora evenings

In Teriberka, the route takes in the old fishing village, ship graveyard, sandy beach, Dragon Eggs Beach and Battery Waterfall area. Nature park admission is included. The order of visits can change with the weather and road conditions. Lunch, a boat trip and the optional winter sleigh transfer to the coastal sights are paid separately.

The Sámi village day includes stories by the fire in a chum, games, reindeer feeding and time with the huskies. Warm outerwear, reindeer broth and herbal tea are provided for the visit. From December, a reindeer sleigh ride is included when there is enough snow. This programme does not include husky sledding, snowmobile rides or ice floating.

For the Northern Lights, your guide chooses routes away from city lights using the cloud and aurora forecasts. Two outings are included, with hot tea, snacks and photos if the aurora appears. Sightings are not guaranteed, and weather can change the evening schedule.
