Where to after Iceland?
Greenland, Faroe Island and Svalbard

These will be the future hot destinations.
Each island as raw and rustic, similar yet different.

Completed my bucket list to all 4 islands.
Iceland: Nov 2009, Jun 2011 & May Jun 2023
Greenland: Jun 2015
Faroe Islands: Mar 2023 & Feb 2024
Svalbard (Longyearbyen): Mar 2023

Flight to
Greenland: Copenhagen
Faroe Islands: Copenhagen
Svalbard: Tromso


Svalbard




Faroe Islands




Greenland - Kangerlussuaq


Ilulissat

I went Svalbard during polar winter. Pitch dark all the time.

I would suggest next on your bucket list should be Antarctica. Looks awesome

I think Nov - mid Feb is total darkness!

Actually went to Greenland cos not really thinking of doing Antarctica.
Should have done it during my SA tour in 2013, so many last minute trips to Antarctica and cheap too.

Having done NIN from Bergen, Flamsbana, Tromso, Oslo and Svalbard.
Hoping to do Norway Coastal Ferry (Kirkenes to Bergen), North Cape, Lofoten and Atlantic Ocean Road next, to sort of round up Norway!

Beautiful!
Some similarity to Faroe Islands.

Oslo Bergen Loop + Lofoten.
Mine sharing your logistics to Lofoten?

I've been looking at Bodo - Svolvaer by ferry.
Another option is taking ferry from Kirkenes, stop at Svolvaer (few days), then continue to Bergen.

TS, have you done the original ice hotel in Kiruna already?

Actually no.
Not really in my bucket list right now.
Maybe Abisko and Kiruna just to relax and watch aurora!
