Svalbard & Nordic
dmc partner
We are your specialists on the ground in the Nordics, planning private Svalbard and Nordic journeys for travel advisors and tour operators.
The Nordic DMC behind your programme
A white-label DMC by design: we are the ground operator your clients never see. You hold the relationship; we hold the logistics — accommodation, transfers, guides, permits, activities and round-the-clock support — every thread built to your brief and delivered under your brand.
Our senior team is based in Finland and works hand-in-hand with trusted local partners across Svalbard — so your traveller gets genuine, on-the-ground expertise, and you get one accountable point of contact who answers the phone.
Built to the Brief
Every programme is built from scratch around your client — their pace, their interests, their way of travelling.
Exclusive Access
Private stays and experiences your clients won't find elsewhere — built on relationships and insiders knowledge.
Deep Local Knowledge
The right guide, the right property, the table worth the journey — earned through years on the ground.
Groups, MICE & Incentive
Charters, exclusive-use venues and large-scale incentive logistics, managed end to end.
Complete Discretion
We operate entirely behind your name. Your client never knows we exist — and that is precisely how we prefer it.
Fully Bonded
Nordic Privé is a fully bonded DMC and tour operator in Finland, owned by Mandala Travel, a Finnish outbound tour operator.
Four steps, your name on it
The Brief
Send us your client dates, interests and budget. A real specialist reads it.
The Proposal
A detailed, day-by-day proposal shaped to your client — presented under your name.
The Booking
We confirm every supplier and issue clean documentation. You keep the client relationship.
On the Ground
Our team operates in-destination with support throughout — and reports back the moment it matters.

The highlights they come for

Long light returns, snowmobile terrain is still firm and polar bears are active.
Midnight Sun
Expedition cruising season — the sea ice retreats and wildlife sightings are at their peak.
A senior team of field operators
Our specialists have spent years operating programmes across Svalbard — on the ground, in the properties, learning what actually works when conditions change.
We work exclusively with the travel trade — a small, senior team that knows the ground and answers the phone.
- ✓ Senior specialists who know Svalbard first-hand
- ✓ Fully bonded DMC based in Finland
- ✓ Exclusive access to properties and experiences not publicly available
- ✓ Complete discretion — your name, your relationship, always
- ✓ A senior specialist throughout every journey
What you can count on
We work with the trade only. Your client never hears our name, and we never sell to them direct.
Every proposal is a considered piece of work — day by day, specific to the client, under your name.
We confirm every supplier, hold the bond and issue clean documentation — and we are reachable while your clients travel.
The private catalogue
Our private villas, signature experiences and partner access live in a password-protected space. To protect our clients' privacy and our exclusive product, access is granted to approved trade partners only.
We take on a limited number of new partners each season
Nordic Privé works exclusively with the travel trade — luxury tour operators, agencies and independent travel designers. We do not sell direct to the public, and we keep our partner list deliberately small so every programme receives senior attention.
Approved partners receive access to our private catalogue, exclusive properties and a dedicated Svalbard specialist who knows what your clients care about.
- ✓ Bona fide travel-trade businesses (IATA / ABTA / registered operators / Virtuoso affiliated)
- ✓ HNWI market and premium travel agents
- ✓ Business clients seeking private, tailor-made Svalbard programmes
Tell us a little about your business and we'll be in touch about access.
