Adventures
NX offers small-scale, nature-based journeys in Arctic Norway, with a primary focus on Western Finnmark. Our experiences are shaped by season, weather and landscape, and are designed for guests seeking a slower, more immersive way of exploring the Arctic.
Most journeys begin aboard MS Tuvholmen, our converted fishing vessel, which serves as a floating base in fjords and small coastal harbours. From here, we explore both sea and land – combining fjord travel with activities such as whale encounters, king crab experiences and northern lights by sea, as well as ski touring, glacier hikes and mountain exploration on land.
Our program includes both short Arctic day journeys and longer multi-day expeditions. Each season offers different conditions and possibilities, and every journey is shaped by nature.
Arctic Day Xperiences – Alta
Step aboard on MS Tuvholmen for a slow Arctic day on the water, where fjords, wildlife and coastal culture shape the journey, following a flexible plan adapted to nature and conditions.
Our day
experiences follow the rhythm of the Arctic.
The focus varies with the season and conditions – from whale encounters and
hands-on king crab activities to quiet fjord exploration. Some days are defined
by wildlife, others by participation, storytelling and time simply spent in the
landscape.
As we move through wide Arctic fjords and open coastal landscapes, changing light conditions shape the experience. In winter, when timing and weather allow, the northern lights may appear overhead.
On board, time slows down. On selected departures, warm food may be prepared and shared, and there is space to connect with both the environment and the people you travel with.
This is
authentic Arctic travel – unhurried, flexible and shaped by nature.
No two days are the same.
Some departures may include optional hot tub experiences on deck, subject to conditions and prior arrangement.
Whale and sail
Whale & Sail is a winter expedition shaped by the herring season, when orcas and humpback whales move into the fjords of Alta, but also Western Finnmark and Kvænangen.
Life unfolds aboard MS Tuvholmen, our floating base in remote Arctic waters. Days are spent navigating quiet fjords, adjusting routes to wildlife movements and weather, and allowing the rhythm of the sea to set the pace.
Between whale encounters, we drift, fish, share meals and experience the unique light of the Arctic winter – from deep blue twilight to long polar nights. This is not a scheduled safari, but a journey where presence, patience and respect for nature define the experience.
Ski and sail
Ski & Sail combines Arctic ski touring with life aboard MS Tuvholmen, exploring remote fjords and mountains in Loppa and Western Finnmark.
The vessel serves as a floating basecamp, allowing access to terrain far from roads, lifts and crowds. Each day is shaped by weather, snow conditions and the group's ambitions, with routes and plans adapted continuously.
This is a journey defined by space, silence and movement – skinning from sea level into untouched mountains, returning to warm shelter on the water, and sharing long evenings in quiet fjords under Arctic skies.
Summer and sail
Summer & Sail is a slow Arctic journey under the midnight sun, where days blend seamlessly into nights and the landscape sets the rhythm.
Sailing between remote fjords, we anchor in new locations, explore islands and mountains on foot, and live close to the sea. From coastal hikes and runs to glacier walks and alpine summits, the Arctic summer offers constant variation and light without limits.
This is meaningful summer travel shaped by freedom and flexibility – where routes, activities and pace are adapted along the way, and each day unfolds naturally from the one before.
