5.00A beautiful trip with a great team (Filip, Lucas, thank you 🙏), I recommend them by heart! ☺️ They are very attentive, helpful, hospitable and they have a very positive attitude. It was my first day in Tromsø, and I wanted to experience what it feels like to be in the Arctic. ☺️ It was amazing to feel the energy of Mother Nature and to be in nature. People may live here around ... but this is wilderness. ☺️ And now I could be a part of it ☺️ I really liked that tour was advertised as: it is organised in any kind of weather, so then tourists can also experience what life in the Norwegian Arctic is like. The landscape was shockingly rude and shockingly beautiful at the same time ☺️ I reagularly just started to laugh that OMG I can't believe! WOW, I'm here in the Arctic! ☺️ The air was crystal clear, salty and "heavy", it was so fresh that I just felt like biting in it. ☺️ We were lucky with the weather, comfortable 0 degrees, heavy snow, and in several places we went in knee-deep snow, but our guide was very helpful and always made a way for us. The sudden changes in the weather were shocking: in some places it was calm and cold. Then there was a strong wind, but it felt warm ... And then Mother Nature showed us its real strength again ... Filip and Lucas are very friendly and hospitable, they paid attention to everyone and were available for everything. Filip took a lot of photos, of the landscape, and of everyone, as many as we wanted and in as many poses as we wanted. ☺️ We got the photos for free, in low resolution, but they turned out beautifully clear anyway. 😍 The fjord panorama Ersfjordbotn, where we had to walk a bit in the heavy snow, but Filip made way for us and helped those with mobility difficulties. At Grotfjord we were greeted by another wonderful panorama and we walked down to the beach for lunch. This beach was breath-taking .... with fine sand and snow ... the water was crystal clear, surrounded by incredible mountains, a sanctuary..... really I was touched ... 🥹 For lunch we had a vegan sandwich, it had salad, hummus and blueberry jam - an interesting combination, but it was very tasty and nutritious. There was also enough coffee, tea and sweets. Our last stop was the port of Tromvik, with an exciting atmosphere, but huge gusts of wind, so we didn't spend much time there. It was a great day, just nature and us, we saw few people, but we met reindeers, too. 😍 We spent most of the time of the 5 hours on the bus, we travelled often on beautiful serpentine roads, we spent about 2 hours outdoors. The program is flexible, if the weather is not good somewhere, we will continue on another direction ... there are many beauties around ... 😍 During the day our guides made sure that everyone felt comfortable, it was a memorable and wonderful day, thank you Gyus 🫶🙏

5.00This was a lovely day out of Tromso. The wind picked up, so instead of going to the island, we went inland. The scenery was beautiful, and the guide (Armand) was fantastic. Definitely recommend if you want to get out of the town!
Great day trip out of Tromso

5.00My wife and I went for this small group (up to 8 pax) half day road trip out of Tromso. Our guide was Filip and driver was Matthias. Both of them speak fluent English and are excellent. They drove us to Kvaloya Island, where we stopped at a couple of scenic locations to take great photo and played in the thick soft snow. The weather was great, with a clear blue sky and golden hues of the sun rays. These allowed us to take lots of great photos, many of which Filip also helped to take. We then proceeded to a beach in Somaroy, whereby stools were set up for us to enjoy an artic beach picnic in front of an awesome view. What a treat! Nice sandwiches and hot beverages were served. On the way back, we spotted some reindeers and Matthias stopped the van for us to take some photos. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip with Filip and Matthias. They are professional, knowledgeable, chatty. I signed up for 2 activities with Northern Soul Adventures and both were very good. I highly recommend them for your Tromso activities.
A Highlight of Our Trip!

5.00Armand and Mathias were excellent guides! Both super knowledgeable and helpful in making our trip to the fjords unforgettable. They both took great pictures, pointed out the perfect spots along the way to see the magic of Norway! We booked the tour the night before and they were able to provide me with a gluten free sandwich which was delicious! The company and guides were really great and I would definitely tour with them again !
