What are people saying about Tromso

Tromsø: Small Group | Northern Lights Chase + All-Inclusive

Dominic_W, Oct 2026

A long but memorable trip. Incredible!

Firstly, shout out to our tour guide, Nelson. Full of charisma, charm, knowledge and enthusiasm. Picked up at 6, and after visiting various different spots, cooking reindeer hotdogs on campfire with hot chocolate & cookies. The lights still didn’t appear. Then finally at 1AM in the morning when everyone had lost hope (apart from Nelson) & fell asleep. The lights appeared! What an incredible light show it was. Well worth the wait.

Denise_M, Oct 2026

Extremely punctual and friendly

Great experience! He arrived exactly on time and was very cheerful and helpful. It took us to places where we saw reindeer and we stayed longer in a beautiful region without other tourists. The snack was excellent and the hot chocolate was delicious. We thank you immensely for the care you showed us and hope to return soon!

Tromso Aurora Hunt with Bonfire, Meal, Winter Suit & Photos

Vikki_M, Oct 2026

Despite clouds we found the lights!

Although there weren't any forecast for strong lights on the evening we went, our guide found them. I didn't catch his name, he was a Dutch gentleman and incredibly knowledgeable. We stopped in a few different places and at one point at up a small camp fire. It was chilly so do wrap up - arctic suits were offered - you feel like you don't need them at first but after a while you really do. Be prepared for a possible scramble down to a lake side on uneven flooring. We really had a great time, the one thing I would say is the 'meal' included was a mug of soup and a waffle. Had we known this i would have a bite to eat before the trip. It was very much appreciated though.

Whale Safari in Tromso

613charoc, Oct 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable experience – absolutely recommended! 🐋❤️

What a beautiful and unforgettable excursion! We were very lucky to be able to observe both orcas and a whale in the wild. An experience that will stay in our memories for a long time! 😍 We were also incredibly lucky with the weather. The sea, the impressive mountains, and the breathtaking Norwegian landscape were simply dreamlike! A very special thank you goes to Mario and his colleagues from the crew. The two of them were extremely friendly, warm, and explained everything to us in detail and in an understandable way. One felt completely comfortable on board. The entire tour was an absolute highlight of our Norway vacation and worth every cent! We would do this excursion again anytime and can wholeheartedly recommend it! ❤️🐳

Small-Group Northern Lights Tour from Tromso with Photos

Laura_S, Oct 2026

Unmissable

Excellent. From start to finish. Our guide was Ian. Kind with extensive knowledge about the history and geography of Tromso. We found the Auroras at the first stop, and even so he took us to 2 more places where each time we saw more and even more beautiful ones. Warm, kind, he was able to create a climate of camaraderie in a diverse group of Romanians, Americans and 2 Argentinians 😂 and it was a magical night. He dropped each of us off at our hotel even though it wasn't agreed upon. Coffee, cakes, laughter, auroras. Honestly much more than we expected. Highly recommend.

Silent Whale Watching by Hybrid-Electric Boat from Tromsø

Debbie_W, Oct 2026

Positive experience in every aspect.

Our initial booking was cancelled due to storms, but several alternatives we're offered. Communication from the operator was excellent. The boat is clean and comfortable, staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. Clear updates were given along the way at every stage. Lots.of information was given about the whales in the area, their behavioural traits and lives. We were lucky to see several pods of orca and a number of hump back whales. In addition there were interesting seabirds, though sadly we failed to notice a passing sea eagle. Participant safety was prioritised, and potential hazards and alternative plans made clear before sailing so that travellers had the option of sailing at a later date. A speaker system on deck would be helpful in identifying sightings to those outdoors on a different deck, otherwise excellent all round.

Northern Lights Tour Unlimited Chase Crossing Borders

sergiobI5057GC, Oct 2026

Magic lights

Even though we traveled outside of Tromso because it was cloudy, the team was tireless and made the uncertain, certain. Fabulous! Congratulations to the entire team that made the decision to camp in Skibotn and trust that the sky would open in that place. As the minutes passed, the sky became starry and the Northern lights began to appear. First timidly until we were graced with a magical ball that moved the group, recording in photograph a memory that will last a lifetime. Thanks to Matias on behalf of the whole team.

Cheng_T, Oct 2026

Absolutely unforgettable experience!!

The tour staff were incredibly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. Their experience and dedication made it possible for us to witness the Northern Lights for the very first time in our lives. And yes—we saw them! Not just a glimpse, but lots of them, dancing across the night sky and reflecting beautifully on the calm waters of a remote beach, with majestic mountain peaks forming the perfect backdrop. It was an absolutely unforgettable experience!

Tromso Self-Drive Husky Dog Sledding

William_B, Mar 2026

While in Finland and...

While in Finland and Norway, we enjoyed many arctic activities, but this was our favorite. We’re animal lovers and appreciate a thrill, and this offered both. The people were so kind and educated us on how to do the activity properly but also on how they (and more importantly, the pups!) prepare for it. Although it’s not ideal for children, we brought our 7-year-old and they made it safe and fun for all of us. There are lots of husky opps in the north, but this one appears to be one truly caring for the dogs. The dogs seem happy and are so eager to go for a fun run through the beautiful mountain side. I have no interest in a sport that gratifies me but at the same of the health and happiness of an animal, and these guys seem to do such an amazing job that both humans and pups are healthy and happy to be there.

Reindeer Sledding Experience and Sami Culture Tour from Tromso

Alicia_K, Feb 2026

Reindeer sledding

Reindeer sledding was so much fun. I chose this adventure through Viator because of the length of the sledding experience. It was much longer than any I had seen. We had fun first feeding the reindeer and then being pulled through a beautiful snowy pastureland overlooking a fjord. Afterwards we learned about the Sami people and enjoyed a lunch of reindeer stew. There was a small gift shop on the property with unique items to remember this day by. This is a “must do” experience.

Sami Culture and Short Reindeer Sledding from Tromso

Diana_C, Feb 2026

Beautiful experience

This was a once in a lifetime experience for my partner and I. The reindeers are free to roam and come to you whenever they want to eat from the bucket of food provided. The scenery is beautiful and the short sledding was memorable. The storytelling was wonderful and we were happy to hear that we are promoting the Sami culture. The reindeer stew was really delicious.
