5.00This was a wonderful introduction to Tromso and being able to see the city from the water. The sun came out and gave us a picturesque setting. Highly recommend if you want to learn about Tromso, the history, and have beautiful views! It was perfect.

5.00My boyfriend and I did our cruise in February and it was amazing. The boat Hermes II is an authentic and handmade one rich of charm and history . The guide is so prepared and nice, he told us a lot of curiosity and informations about the city too and its buildings we could see from the boat, while navigating in the beautiful Tromso sea surreunded by a spectacular view. We ve also been invited to the cabin when we ate some biscuits with a local tea with other two tourists, while the guide explained us the beautiful boat history and then let us free to explorie it. So if you re searching for a characteristic experience, in a thrue historic norvegia boat with a great company and a spectacular view of the city, plus the adrenaline of navigating in the strong norvegia sea, that s the best option you could choose.
Great choice

5.00The cruise was excellent! Even though the weather didn't spoil us (cloudy and rainy at times) the time spent onboard was great. Altogether seven visitors; we were welcomed, taken care of, offered cookies and hot drinks (excellent in that weather) We could see around, hear the story of Hermes II (wonderful job saving the boat's history! and looking ahead!). The views of the Tromso area were fantastic, so were the stories told by our guide (sorry, don't remember the name). One could feel he does it with passion, which only adds to the whole thing. Thank you Hermes II crew for this adventure. Anyone wondering what to do in Tromso? - take the cruise, it's definitely worth it and you'll support a good thing.
