    Karl was a great guide. We learned so much about Tromso and it's history. He had a wonderful sense of humor and made it very easy to ask our many questions

    Great tour that was inexpensive! We had a small group of 7ish people so we were able to ask lots of questions. The Tour guide was very knowledgeable, talked about the history of Tromso, took us off the "tourist path" to show us what the residents of the town do, and even the different languages in Norway. The tour included admission to the must see Polar Museum! While there we were able to touch actual Polar Bears, walruses, and many more Norwegian taxidermies. Definitely a must see while in Tromso!
