North Spitsbergen Explorer

We had the best time at the Wilderness Resort in Nellim. Jo Sehgal asked us the right questions so she could really understand what we were looking for. We were so pleased when we arrived, it was all just how we dreamed it would be. The perfect style of resort for us. The guides were brilliant and the excursions were so well organised. We relaxed and enjoyed it all. The accommodation was comfy and cosy and we enjoyed the lovely food at the buffet after a day of adventure in the snowy wilderness. We’d love to go back and do it all again.

Discover the World have been our go to travel company for many years. We trust the company and always confident in the transportation, hotels and other alternative accommodation.

Amazing staff, accommodation, food and activities
Would recommend 💯 %

A truly WOW location although noted we were blessed with great weather and northern lights - it just couldn’t have been any better

Accommodation selection was excellent and suggested itinerary also great. Completely felt like we were in a holiday not an endurance challenge yet also felt we saw so much in our week there.

Enjoyed the relative calm of off season - when you’re in the Arctic it needs to be snowy right?! But note February not a good month for extensive hiking in the mountains if that’s your thing unless you’re super experienced I’d imagine. And be ready to drive on snow and ice. Even with studded tyres - a new experience

Travel arrangements went like a dream and Darren at DOW a great help finding flight times that suited us.

Would definitely recommend

Really well organised with a wide range of activities plus free time. Hotel is excellent - comfortable and clean rooms, superb food, lovely staff and a great location.

The pace of the tour was ideal, picking up locations you would not have thought of but everyone a gem. Exceptional, knowledgeable driver/guide who was with us throughout who made it his duty to ensure everybody was catered for. A fantastic trip that was enjoyed by the whole group (18 in total).

Excellent city break

Excellent hotel, fabulous food and drink and wonderful, knowledgeable and inspiring guides.

Arctic Explorer, just incredible.

Husky sledding, feeding reindeer, walking in beautiful snow covered forests and seeing the Northern Lights. What more could you want?

This is an excellent hotel to experience Finnish Lapland. It's a great location, the staff are very good, the food is amazing and the experiences are truly memorable

Fantastic trip. All activities were excellent with knowledgeable guides and well organised. I highly recommend the Inari Wilderness Hotel and their activity package.

Excellent location, fab hotel, excellent staff, great accommodation, amazing food and great adventure excursions.

What an experience.
The ice room stay was fantastic. And actually not as cold as expected. Just need lots of layers during the day. The activities are great. But you have to arrive 15 mins b4 they start so it’s not a restful trip if you have organised lots ! Recommend the husky transfer. Wow what an experience that’s was
Take ski goggles if u have them. Just to keep your face warm where it’s not covered by a balaclava

Brilliant adventure with great organisation in a wonderful setting.
Staff at hotel were great as were the various activities.

A great holiday from a great company.

What an amazing holiday!
My mother and I joined the winter adventure at the Nellim Hotel for 7 nights and signed up to most of the activities. It was really well organised, the guides were great and we had an unforgettable experience. We experienced everything we could have hoped for and more.
We would definitely travel with Discover the World again!

Our trip to Lapland was the most memorable and special of our lives - we all (two adults, a teen and a 7 year old!) - absolutely loved it. The accommodation was wonderful, great staff throughout, lovely food, the excursions were amazing and excellently run. Everything was very easy and really well planned. It felt very easy. I’d go back tomorrow! And I’d recommend the trip and the location to ANYONE.

Tromso was knee deep in snow when we arrived , and in the middle of a snow shower in near darkness at 2.00pm in the afternoon , and every thing was carrying on as normal. it was Wonderfull. The town was trimmed up for Christmas and looked like a Christmas card. Our trip to Malangen was seamless despite ice covered roads and Malangen the resort was breathtaking. Our Husky Experience was as though we were pulled through Narnia by snow wolves. The northern lights gave us a couple of hours of breathtaking displays. All truly amazing . Thankyou

Enjoyable holiday with plenty to see and do.
Definitely advise anyone to break the trip out/back to Australia to allow you to enjoy what other places can offer, and reduce the flight jet lag.

Lovely trip - beautiful scenery, nice hotels and not too far to travel between each location
