Awestruck with scenery and an awesome experience

Published on Feb, 2025

We went to Grøtfjord and such amazing views, pristine beach, waterfall and the snow covered mountains. Our guide Gerard was so knowledgeable and talked us through the details of the places al through the tour! He took the best pictures and had given us a memories to cherish forever!

Unforgettable Adventure with an Exceptional Guide!

Published on Jan, 2025

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with our guide, Henrik! He was exceptionally professional, incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and truly embodied the warmth and expertise of a local guide. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to show us around, and we were thrilled with the entire experience. Initially, we booked a snowshoeing tour, but due to unfavorable weather conditions, it was switched to a sightseeing tour. While this could have been a disappointing change of plans, Henrik went above and beyond to ensure we were happy, entertained, and fully engaged throughout the trip. Our destination was the picturesque Sommarøy, and Henrik took us there via a scenic route, where we were fortunate enough to spot reindeer, eagles, and even a moose! Seeing all three felt like an incredible stroke of luck, and Henrik’s sharp eye and local insight made it possible. Though the weather was a bit challenging during parts of the journey and at Sommarøy, it cleared up just enough for us to enjoy lunch at a stunning picnic spot. Once again, Henrik worked tirelessly to make the experience as memorable and valuable as possible. I would 100% recommend this tour and would love to book another trip with Henrik in the future. His dedication and passion for sharing the beauty of the region made this an unforgettable adventure!

Beautiful arctic landscapes

Published on Dec, 2024

Honestly one of the best tours I have done. The arctic landscape was unbelievable, I think I had something in mind and my expectations were 100% fulfilled. We arrived from Tromsø to Sommarøy and it was stunning. Also our guide Henrik was extremely good and prepared, he explained us a lot of interesting things and replied to all my (many) questions. Definitely recommend this tour!

Great time off the crowded tracks... and beautiful landscapes

Published on Nov, 2024

Our guide was great for conversation, sightseeing and pictures After intense days with whale watching and nights with northern lights hunting, we tried this much shorter excursion and off track excursion which was clsoe to Tromso Landscapes were great from sandy beaches to fjords and our guide sent us VERY NICE pictures of use in different settings which greatly added to the character of this experience

Perfect Introduction To Arctic Landscape

Published on Aug, 2024

This tour is an excellent way to experience the stunning arctic Norwegian landscape in an easy and very accessible manner. The stops and views were all spectacular, and our guide Evgeni knowledgeable, flexible, helpful and fun! We spotted reindeer on a couple of occasions, and had ample time in a beautiful, gleaming white beach at Grøtfjord. Our last stop, the Bryggejentene café at Ersfjordbotn is not only a place with fantastic views of the fjord, but also houses an utterly charming homeware and interiors boutique.
