  An absolutely amazing whale and orca watching tour in Tromsø – truly a bucket list experience. Even though we didn’t see the Northern Lights due to the weather, we were incredibly lucky with wildlife: around 100 orcas and several humpback whales swimming close to the boat. Great organization, comfortable boat, excellent food, and very knowledgeable crew. The onboard lectures about whales, marine life, and the Arctic made the trip even more special. Highly recommended – an unforgettable experience!

  

  

  

  

  

  

• A unique experience

  We took the New Year's Eve cruise as a family. It was truly a unique experience that we would highly recommend. Our tour first took us to a fjord, where we sailed through a thin layer of ice before heading back towards Tromsø to admire the New Year's fireworks from the ship. On the way back, we saw the first northern lights, and during the night we saw more. In the morning, we stood at the end of the Jøkelfjord with a glacier peak directly in front of us. That alone was very impressive, but after a short drive we were lucky enough to see several pods of whales, more than 50 animals swimming around us for several hours. It was a moment I will never forget, and I was moved to tears. On the way back to Tromsø, we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights again. In addition to the breathtaking nature and animals, the consistently friendly staff must be highlighted. It was an experience we will never forget. Highly recommended.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Once-in-a-Lifetime Orca and Humpback whale Encounter

  We had an absolutely wonderful time on this trip. The skies were clear, and even though we didn’t see the northern lights, it was still a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We saw so many orcas that we hardly knew where to look, and it was incredible to also witness humpback whales feeding on the same fish as the orcas. I highly recommend this trip—it truly deserves a spot on anyone’s bucket list. The staff on the boat were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to accommodate all of our wishes. The guides were knowledgeable and approachable, and it was clear they were experts in their fields. Having two specialists on board—one focused on the northern lights and one on wildlife—meant that no question went unanswered. Although the ride was a bit bumpy at times due to the waves, it was still one of the best experiences of my life. If I could, I would do it again in a heartbeat.

  

  

  

  

  

• Exceptional and one-of-a-kind experience

  If you booked a day trip like many other tourists do, you might want to reconsider. By unfortunate chance we had to reschedule our holiday and came across this cruise as an alternative for separate northern light tour and whale watching tour. It was in all ways a fantastic experience; the cruise, the very friendly service of the crew, the facilities on board, the food, very friendly and knowledgeable guides and above all: the most beautiful scenery you can imagine. From watching the northern lights in an intimate setting among the fjords, to waking up the next day and being in an almost magical bay all alone and in complete tranquility. All accompanied by interesting and entertaining lectures by the guides. This is not a mass tourist cruise, care was taken for every aspect of our experience. The price might scare you off, but considering the fact that you have a unique stay over (consider the pricy hotels in Tromso), it includes dinner, breakfast and lunch - all of a high standard yet still accessible for our teenagers - and brings you to unique locations you won’t see with many standard offerings, this cruise provides a high value for money.

  Booked this tour last minute and did not regret a second doing it. Weather was not on our side in the morning but we still trusted the process and the weather changed beautifully in minutes to the most beautiful scenery with hundreds of Orcas and Whales feeding themselfs. We also saw a stromg northern lights on the way back to Tromsø! Thank you!

  Awesome experience! Great opportunity to see northern lights, whales, and glacier. You wake up amongst the whales before any other tours arrive. Guides were very knowledgeable and food was incredible. Saw countless whales diving, swimming, spy hopping for hours. Very comfortable, well fed, and overall a very unique experience.

  You get cruise experience, whale watching, aurora hunting, accommodation and food in a package that is in my opinion even cheaper than if you book all of these things separately. The experience of seeing whales in the arctic fjords is amazing, and the guides and staff super nice.

• Wonderful new year's whale !

  Wonderful cruise, we had the pleasure to see northern lights and whales (orcas AND humpbacks). The guides were really friendly and gave lectures about these topics that were interesting. The crew and captains made everything for us to enjoy the trip and facilitate the seeing of whales. The rooms were spacious enough (even in not superior) and the restaurant offered 3 options for every starters, meals and desserts (some are gluten free and / or vegetarian). There are free self-service hot drinks available. As a special for new year's eve, we could enjoy the fireworks from the boat with a free glass.

  This was the best travel experience I have ever experienced. Off the scale. The scenery was breathtaking. The Northern lights was incredible and the whale watching was mesmerising. All staff was phenomenal and the two guides were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and very friendly. I will never forget this experience

  

  

  

• Unbelievable Orca and humpback sightings for hours - fabulous trip

  Absolutely fantastic trip from start to finish. The whale watching was off the scale - groups of orcas including young visible at close quarters for hours of the trip in the morning, also groups of humpbacks - saw whales breech, swim backwards, sleeping, diving, bobbing - truly incredible views throughout. The cabin was comfortable, food good and the staff first class on both knowledge via 3 lectures given. Although we weren’t able to see the Northern Lights due to poor weather, observing large groups of whales up close was an unforgettable experience. Absolutely recommend if you can.
