Our adventure here begins with a stroll up to the hotel and into Norway’s largest ice bar, where we are served an ice-cold shot of crowberry juice, locally known as `Rudolf´s revenge´. Our guide then shows us around the Snow Hotel, including some of its magnificent suites with art made from snow and ice. Every room is like a small treasure, all with everything needed for a comfortable night´s stay. After the hotel tour, we meet the reindeer. You can also visit Gabba Kennel and greet the many husky sledge dogs who live there. Afterwards, we retire to the restaurant where you are greeted with a cosy fire and served sausages with potato pancakes and mustard. Before returning to the ship, we stop at Prestfjellet Mountain to enjoy its fantastic view of Kirkenes.
