Road trip from Tromsø to Lofoten in February/March (with kids)

Hi everyone,

We’re a family with two kids aged 5 and 7, and we’ve been dreaming of heading to Norway in winter to see the northern lights, the Lofoten Islands, and maybe even whales or orcas... I was thinking of booking flights to arrive in TROMSØ and then leave about ten days later from EVENES. We’ll be getting around by rental car, and if you’ve got any hotel or accommodation recommendations that you loved, activities that are off the beaten path, or other great tips to share, we’d love to hear them!

Thanks so much in advance for your help!

Have a great day.

Two weeks (or more!) with the family in Lofoten

Hi there.

We’re planning a trip to Lofoten in July 2021 with our two kids, who’ll be 11 and 8. We’ve already booked our accommodations (yes, we’re planners!): - the first week in Reine. - the second in Henningsvær.

The idea is to explore the southern part of the archipelago, which seems the most interesting based on all the research I’ve done.

We’ve been considering extending our trip by another week. What would you recommend? Staying an extra week in Lofoten? Heading to Senja Island? The Lyngen Alps? Or somewhere else entirely?

Thanks in advance for your tips!
