YOUR ADVENTURE STARTS HERE
Northern Lights Tour
We’ll start by picking you up from your accommodation at Steam Pier. Gathering at a single meeting point ensures we have more time to chase the Aurora and we are flexible with departure. Sometimes the lights appear early, so we must be ready. We value an intimate atmosphere, so our tours are limited to small groups. This allows us to visit hidden spots inaccessible to larger buses. If you want to experience the Northern Lights away from the crowds, this tour is perfect for you. Our guide will give a brief overview of weather conditions, chances of seeing the lights, and the chosen locations for the evening. We also collaborate with other trusted guides to maximalize our chances.
What to wear:
– We provide thermal suits, but please come dressed in warm clothing. We’ll be spending some time outdoors, and if you’re not moving, it can get cold quickly.
Pick-up locations and time:
– Steam Pier: 18:00 | Link to map
– Kringla (city center): 17:40 | Link to map

Fjord Tour
Our adventure will take us to some of the most stunning locations around Tromsø, all situated on enchanting island Kvaløya. We will witness deep, serene fjords, sharp mountain peaks rising majestically from the waters, and sandy beaches bordering crystal-clear waters that evoke the Caribbean more than the rugged Nordic wilderness.
Keep an eye out for Norway’s wildlife – Reindeer, sea eagles, seals, and maybe even a moose.
A highlight of our tour is a visit to Sommarøy, the ‘Norwegian Caribbean,’ with its turquoise waters and white sandy beaches, or alternatively, we may explore the Tromvik area, whose landscapes rival the beauty of the famous Lofoten Islands.
What to wear:
– We will be sitting in the car a lot, but there will be breaks where it can get cold quickly. We recommend dressing like for the road trip, but bring something warmer with you for those colder moments.
Pick-up locations and time:

Snowshoe hike
Snowshoes prevent you from sinking into deep snow, making movement through nature more effortless and enjoyable. Our lightweight snowshoes are so comfortable, you’ll hardly notice you’re wearing them. Upon reaching the scenic lookout point, you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking view. Our guide will serve you hot chocolate and provide mini cinnamon rolls or other small snacks to refresh and energize you.
On days when guided hikes are not available, you can rent snowshoes and explore on your own with our recommended routes. Snowshoe rental is NOK 320 per day. If you would like to just rent the snowshoes, send us email to:
