Called the 'Tip to Toe' expedition, the global tour will kickstart in a posh 12-seater long-range private jet. The trip that will span across 11 days will only be available to 10 adventure seekers.
The first stop at Ivalo, Lapland, will take you deep into the belly of snow-covered countryside, amidst the company of reindeer. And the best part?

Moving forward, you can take a cruise on the icebreaker ship Sampo and even take a dive into the bitter-cold waters of the Bay of Bothnia. And once you pull out with a newfound respect for life, you can proceed to the famous Bascule Bar to enjoy the warmth of whiskey and cigars.
