From low-cost adventure to Arctic luxury: Two sisters, three countries in two weeks

Euronews Portugal12 September 2026 at 06:00

Two sisters embarked on a two-week journey through three Nordic countries: Greenland, Iceland, and Norway. The trip began with a more budget-conscious approach, with the sisters choosing to sleep in the car during part of their time in Iceland, and evolved into a luxury experience in Norway, where they stayed in a high-category hotel.

Greenland emerged as the most surprising destination of the trip, offering landscapes described as cinematic and an authentic experience that contrasted with other, more touristy countries. Iceland presented itself as a destination already heavily explored by tourism, with developed infrastructures and a consolidated tourism industry.

Norway completed the itinerary with a radically different atmosphere, where luxury and comfort were predominant. The trip allowed them to demonstrate how these three Nordic countries, despite sharing geographical proximity and Arctic natural beauty, have very different relationships with tourism and offer contrasting experiences to visitors.
