Stunning scenery and views and an excellent guide made for a great excursion. The hike was relaxed and easy. We really enjoyed the drive through the town and countryside, and the hot drinks and sandwiches at the top was a lovely touch. Thoroughly recommend this excursion and company!

This small group tour was excellent. Even though the weather looked doubtful and there was some rain in the forecast, we had a great hike. The views were not as good as they might have been due to the clouds and fog, but we still enjoyed the scenery and could see the mountains and fjords around us. On our way back, it began to rain a bit more but we still had a fun experience. Our tour guide communicated well and was knowledgeable and personable. The sandwich and hot tea at the top of our hike was enjoyable, and the provided hiking poles came in handy since it was a bit rocky and wet on the way down. Our guide picked us up from and returned us to the Breivika cruise port terminal which saved us having to take other transportation into Tromsø. All in all I highly recommend this excursion, even if the weather is not perfect.

Our guides and the scenery were fabulous. The van was very comfortable. The info was a little misleading in a couple of areas. Hiking poles and sitting pads were not provided. Description said a vegan option was available but they decided to go to all vegan for everyone which we didn’t particularly like. Was more of a moderate hike to me, but very doable.

Hello Abbey,

We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the scenery and had a great experience with our guides!
We are sorry that hiking poles and seat pads were not provided as described. This should have been made available and we will make sure it does not happen again. Regarding the meals it is noted on our website that we offer only vegan meals on all of our tours to accommodate various dietary restrictions and avoid allergy risks.
Thank you again for your honest feedback and we hope to see you in the future!

This was a great hike. It wasn't strenuous (I am mid-60's) and the views are incredible. We ended up having a private tour because the other couple's ship didn't arrive in time. We came in on the Viking Mars ship and had plenty of time to look around in town and then meet our guide (Anthony) at 11:00. Anthony was so friendly and shared lots of his experiences. Because it was only the two of us, we got done a little early and had time to grab a quick bite before our next tour. So glad we did this hike.

We were fortunate to have great weather and a wonderful, thoughtful and knowledgeable guide. Despite being much older than our fellow hikers, our guide kept us together as a cohesive group and provided us with lots of relevant information.
