For over 15 years, Off the Map Travel has crafted life-changing adventures across the Nordics—because we don’t just sell the destination. We live it.
It all started with a single, unforgettable moment under the Northern Lights. That moment sparked something powerful in our founders, Jonny and Katie—a calling that led them not only to create Off the Map Travel, but to relocate their family to Sweden in pursuit of something deeper. Something real.
That passion for the aurora, for untamed nature and authentic experience, still drives everything we do. Over the years, we’ve built a team of Nordic experts who live and breathe the landscapes, cultures, and people of the region. Every one of us has personally explored the places we recommend. In fact, we have at least one team member who’s been to every single region we sell. That’s the level of first-hand knowledge that makes us different. That’s what makes us Off the Map.
Because Experience Matters
After 15 years on the ground, we know the Nordics in all their moods and seasons. We know that Swedish Lapland hums with magic in the winter, while Iceland comes alive with raw, volcanic beauty in the summer. We know where the first and last auroras of the season are likely to appear—and where the skies are darkest and clearest for the most spellbinding shows.
We know which destinations are made for families, with welcoming accommodations, engaging Arctic activities, and warm hospitality that makes everyone feel at home. We know where couples can truly unplug—from romantic glass cabins in the Finnish wilderness to off-grid luxury lodges in Northern Norway that offer nothing but stillness, starry skies, and the sound of your own breath.
We know which countries shine in the Midnight Sun, and which offer cosy magic when the snow starts to fall. And we know how to match those moments to you.
Tailor-Made Luxury, Redefined
Luxury doesn’t always mean five stars. Sometimes, it means five million—as in stars overhead during a husky sled ride through untouched Arctic forest. It means stepping into a Sami tent for a traditional meal, or snowshoeing across frozen tundra with only the crunch of your footsteps for company.
Over 15 years, we’ve built connections across the Nordics—with hotel owners, aurora experts, local guides, and remote lodge hosts who help us offer travel that goes beyond the expected. Whether it’s a bespoke family holiday or a romantic escape, every itinerary we design is a reflection of your dreams, powered by our passion and grounded in authentic experience.
So if you’re looking for more than a holiday—if you’re looking to feel, to connect, to explore and to be moved—then let’s create something unforgettable.
Off the Map Travel. Tailor-made adventures. Luxury redefined.
