We have different skill levels on all our trips and most of them we can accomodate any type of previous experience. For everyone to enjoy the trip to it's fullest we require a certain amount of experience on the open trips, but we can customize a trip just for your needs!

After booking your trip we will send you a package with all the additional information you need for for your trip. A gear list included.

We do our best to find the best value accommodation around that fits our needs for the trip. All accommodation is double occupancy so expect to share a space with your friend.. or a new friend you make on the trip :) In Norway we usually stay at a Magic Mountain Lodge which is best described as community focused, ski touring specific, and over all social and friendly - expect to meet new people and share some pints! The Vulkana Boat is a boat. This means that space is not in abundance. We have 4 rooms; 3 doubles and one larger that sleep 4. Like we said ... its a boat. In Japan we usually stay at the Gooseberry B&B. We love the Gooseberry lodge because the hosts and the environment will make you feel at home. Please know that there are some nice dogs that live at this beautiful log house. If you have any serious allergies to dogs please let us know so we can pass the information on to the hosts- They can keep them in a separate space. While we are in Sapporo we stay right downtown so the accommodation is as you would expect in Japan; small but efficient. If you have any specific requests or wishes please when you book and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. If you require your own room please let use know ASAP as we will need to make this booking in advance and for an additional cost.
