Group travel in the Nordics



Sharing meaningful experiences
Group travel in the Nordics offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world while sharing meaningful experiences with friends, family or colleagues. From the dramatic fjords of Norway to the remote wilderness of Swedish and Finnish Lapland, the Nordic region provides the perfect setting for unforgettable group adventures. With carefully curated itineraries from Off The Map Travel, every journey is designed to balance discovery, comfort and authentic local experiences.

Group travel in the Nordics
Travelling as a group allows for a deeper level of connection, both with the destination and with each other. Whether it is celebrating a special occasion, planning a corporate retreat or organising a multi-generational family holiday, the Nordics offer something for every type of group. Wide open spaces, natural environments and a strong focus on sustainability create a sense of calm and freedom that is difficult to find elsewhere.
One of the key benefits of group travel in the Nordics is the variety of experiences available throughout the year. In winter, groups can immerse themselves in Arctic adventures such as husky sledding, snowmobiling and Northern Lights hunting. Sharing these moments together, whether racing across frozen landscapes or watching the sky come alive with colour, creates lasting memories that bring people closer.

Bespoke group itineraries
Off The Map Travel specialises in creating bespoke group itineraries that reflect the interests and dynamics of each group. Every detail is thoughtfully planned, from private transfers and exclusive accommodation to guided experiences led by local experts. This personalised approach ensures that each member of the group can enjoy the journey in a way that suits them, whether that means active exploration or quiet relaxation.
Accommodation plays a key role in the group travel experience. The Nordics offer a range of unique options, from boutique lodges and remote cabins to glass roofed suites designed for Northern Lights viewing. Staying together in carefully selected properties allows groups to enjoy shared spaces while still having the privacy and comfort needed for a relaxing stay.

Guided cultural encounters
Lapland to exploring traditional villages and historic cities, groups can gain insight into the region’s rich heritage. Shared meals featuring local cuisine, storytelling sessions and guided cultural encounters provide opportunities to connect with local traditions in a meaningful and respectful way.
For corporate groups, the Nordics provide an inspiring setting for team building and incentive travel. Activities such as wilderness challenges, collaborative outdoor experiences and wellness focused retreats encourage teamwork, creativity and wellbeing. The peaceful surroundings and high quality facilities make it easy to combine productivity with relaxation, creating a balanced and rewarding experience for all participants.

Sustainability
Sustainability is at the heart of travel in the Nordics, and Off The Map Travel is committed to responsible tourism practices. Group itineraries are designed to minimise environmental impact while supporting local communities and businesses. This ensures that travel experiences not only benefit guests but also contribute positively to the destinations visited.
Planning group travel can often be complex, but with expert guidance it becomes a seamless and enjoyable process. Off The Map Travel works closely with group organisers to understand their vision and requirements, creating tailored journeys that exceed expectations.

Group travel in the Nordics is about more than just visiting a destination. It is about sharing extraordinary experiences in some of the most remarkable environments on earth. Whether exploring Arctic wilderness, discovering vibrant cities or simply enjoying time together in nature, these journeys offer a sense of connection that lasts long after the trip has ended.




We really enjoyed our Norwegian adventure despite the -22 days! Unfortunately no real experience of viewing the Lights but we did capture a couple of images on our last night – too much cloud otherwise so lots of snow. We really enjoyed the husky lodge – not at all what we had tentatively imagined. Thanks for your assistance, maybe next time we will see the Lights in all their glory.
Arctic Retreat was simply magical. Graham and his team were superb. Their entire focus was on ensuring we had an outstanding experience. The accommodation, setting and food were all excellent. The team, experienced professionals, each brought their own personal touch and local nuance. It was faultless. The dog sledging trip directly from Arctic Retreat was also superb. We would return to Arctic Retreat in a heartbeat.
We did! Everything was truly wonderful! I think the Holman Husky Lodge was our favourite place. Beautiful accommodations, but best of all, wonderful people! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, excellent food, we really enjoyed our time there. We also greatly enjoyed Bergen! Opus XVI was beautiful and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and bars and take in the sights. All of our drivers were punctual and friendly. The itinerary was full but not overfull.
Thank you so much! It was an epic trip, we are taking home wonderful memories!
We – the whole family – loved the whole journey!!
The accommodations, the activities and especially the great people – thank you very much for this fantastic organisation !!!
Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.
Fantastic trip to Svalbard which delivered the true Arctic experience we were hoping for. The hotels were excellent and the activities – dog sledding and snowmobile expedition were lead by first class guides.
Top tip! The champagne tasting in the world’s most northerly wine cellar in the exceptional Funken Lodge is not to be missed!
Well-organized trip to Norway and Svalbard with great accommodations and activities. Gwen was communicative and responsive to requests. Highly recommend!
We originally hired Off the Map Travel in 2020 to set up a trip to see the Northern Lights. That didn’t happen, thanks to COVID. But, we persisted and in March of 2023, we took a 16-day trip that included both Iceland and Norway. IT WAS MAGICAL! Off the Map took care of everything! We were pampered at every stage of our trip. The people they hired and the activities they planned added up to a trip that will set the standard for any we’ll ever take in the future. Alex and his team were fabulous! We recommend them without restraint!
Exceptional service throughout the entire planning and booking process – travel agencies don’t get any better than this. A brilliant, seamless experience matched by the holiday experience itself. Would recommend ‘Off the Map Travel’ to anyone considering booking for a Nordic experience ‘par excellence’.
The ease of everything stood out to me. All we had to do was be there at the right time. The dog sledding was the highlight for my daughter and sister. We had the best time! For me, Manshausen was the highlight. We were very lucky and the only guests there for the majority of our stay. The staff was amazing and the food was so delicious. We had moose steak and it was the best meal I’ve ever had.
The cabins were comfortable and we were so lucky to have 2 clear nights where we just sat and watched the northern lights. We were able to get some awesome pictures too.
I appreciate all your time and care with planning our trip! I won’t hesitate to use Off the Map travel for our next adventure.
The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!
What an amazing trip we are having. It is incredible. Many many thanks for arranging such an incredible trip.
