Tromsø hybrid-electric whale watching in Arctic fjords, sailing quietly for orcas and other whales, with warm lounges and Wi-Fi.

“If you’re in Tromsø, this is a must do activity and we were very lucky to have spotted the auroras throughout the night. Our guide was very friendly and shared a lot of insights and tips with us and also took lovely pictures. The mini bus was very comfortable and warm and we were given hot chocolate and cookies towards the end. It’s a good idea to bring your own tripod and wear warm clothing (don’t forget gloves!) as it can get quite windy.”

“The Tromsø Reindeer Camp and Sami Cultural Tour with Lunch was an absolutely beautiful and unforgettable experience. Being so close to the reindeer was magical—they are gentle, fascinating animals, and learning about their role in Sami life made the experience even more special. The landscape was breathtaking: snowy plains, mountains, and a peaceful Arctic atmosphere that felt straight out of a postcard. Meeting the Sami people and learning about their culture, traditions, and history was incredibly interesting and authentic. Their stories and connection to nature made the tour feel meaningful, not just touristic. The lunch was delicious and warm, perfect after spending time outdoors in the ...”
