Day 5 Monday 17th November
After an early breakfast we check out and head off to the airport for the short 1.5-hour flight to the city of Kiruna, the northernmost city in Sweden, as we go searching for the best view of the amazing Aurora Borealis. When we arrive in Kiruna we head the short distance to the brand-new Elite Frost Hotel for our 2 night stay. Then after a chance to relax we take a 90-minute drive to Abisko, which is home to probably the best place to view the Aurora in Scandinavia. Our destination is the Auora Sky Station. We’ll begin the evening with a 3-course dinner set 3000ft above sea level. The meal will include traditional Nordic and Lapland cuisine as well as drinks. Then we head up to the top of the mountain by chairlift where a fire crackles to greet us as hopefully, we see the most majestic of all the Northern Lights displays. Then its back to Kiruna and the hotel for a good night’s sleep.
Day 6 Tuesday 18th November

Kiruna is home to the largest and most modern underground iron ore mine in the world, and a tour of the incredible facility is the first of your choices, it lasts 3 hours and goes to a depth of more than 1700 feet below the surface. Its truly a marvel of engineering. Your second choice is a trip to the Worlds first and largest Ice Hotel each year its rebuilt with fresh snow and ice. Finally, if you’re after something truly unforgettable then a husky sled ride into the wilderness is definitely for you. You’ll get to meet the dogs and then sit back and enjoy the ride!! The evening is free to explore the city.

A: If you hold a full US passport, and your stay in Sweden will be 90 days or less, you do NOT require a visa to enter Sweden. However, your passport must have an ‘expiry date’ at least 3 months after the date you arrive. If you do not hold a full US passport then please contact Sports Travel Tours for advice on next steps.
Q: Are Flights Included in this package?
A: Flights from the US to Stockholm and return are not included with this package, however flights from Stockholm to Kiruna and Return are included. You have the option to either call us to get a quote for flights to add to this package or you can book the flights yourself.
Q: If we book flights ourselves what dates and arrival and departure times should we use?
A: Firstly, please make sure all flights arrive and depart from Stockholm Arlanda Airport. Secondly for this trip you will need to depart from the US on Wednesday afternoon/evening (most flights are overnight from the US arriving on the morning of Thursday). Ideally your flight should arrive into Stockholm between 7am and 2pm
Q: If I decide to add extra nights will you still provide airport transfers?
A: Yes, providing the extra nights are booked through us as the pricing of the transfer is built into the extra night prices. If you choose to book another hotel for the extra nights, then you will be responsible for your own journey to/from the airport.
Q: What time should I depart on the last day of the trip?
A: The flights from Kiruna to Stockholm depart early morning, please check with STT to ensure your onward flight back to the US will match up.
Q: What time can I check into my room?
A: Check in time at the hotel is from 3pm onwards. When you arrive at the hotel you'll meet your tour host at our hospitality desk located in the lobby, and they will assist with the check in process. As you will arrive earlier than the check in time, the hotel will allow you to store your bags in a secure room until the room is ready, and you'll be free to start exploring the local area whilst this is being done.
Q: What clothes will I need for the trip?
A: Unfortunately, there is no correct answer to this question, Stockholm's weather is notoriously changeable so we recommend keeping an eye on the forecast in the days leading up to the trip, but still pack a selection of clothing as forecasters do it get it wrong! One thing that is important is that you pack comfortable shoes. Stockholm is a walking city, and even with our fantastic Hop on Hop off Bus Tour in order to make the most of your time you'll definitely need to walk!
Q: When/how will I get my game tickets?
A: All game tickets for the game are expected to be mobile entry. You will need a cell phone with access to data (please ask your provider about international plans ahead of your trip). On arrival your tour host at the reception desk will assist you in downloading the ticket onto your phone. Please note, you will be provided with the exact location of your seat approximately 2 weeks prior to your departure, however we can only transfer your ticket when you arrive at the hotel in London.
