May I introduce myself and my company?
My name is Monika Raab, the owner of Booking Kirkenes (Pasvikturist AS org.nr: 992289171).
I have lived in Kirkenes since 2001. My geography studies brought me from Southern Germany to Northern Norway and my love for the north has never left me. Kirkenes is a special place that differs from other northern Norwegian areas. In many ways we are in a border area: borders to Finland and Russian, climatical border, tree line, different time zones and much more. The location, the climate, the landscape are diverse.

Kundeanmeldelser i Tripadvisor om Booking Kirkenes
Kirkenes for a day - Booking Kirkenes planned our day in Kirkenes with us and everything went very smoothly. Monika and I emailed back and forth before my trip and she was very... read more responsive. They were waiting for us at the port and took us on our hike in the am. This might have been my favorite. It was a beautiful day and the views were awesome. We also did the king crab adventure (my husbands fav) and visit to snow hotel. Then Greg picked us up and took us to the Russian border and tour around Kirkenes, then dropped us at the airport for our flight. We couldn’t have asked for a better day in Kirkenes!
