Fun time, Amazing Scenery

4.00We enjoyed our snowmobiling experience at Camp Tamok. The transfer from Tromso to the camp was close to our hotel and took about and hour and a half each way. Once there we were fitted in Snowsuits, boots and gloves, we were divided into two groups. We were assigned to Micca. He was a great instructor. He went over how to operate the snowmobile and took us on a test run, making sure everyone was confident and comfortable before getting to ride on the mountain. We stopped for a break about an hour in and he took photos for everyone. Once back at the camp we were treated to a nice lunch (there is a a vegetarian option) After there was a little time to walk around the camp. There is an ice building and we visited with the dogs they have used for sledding.
Totally worth the Money, awesome experience!

5.00We went on the Snowmobiletour in January 2026 and had an awesome time. First u get warm clothing, then u go on the snowmobiles as 2 and start driving to a training area. At first u learn how to drive there and get a feeling for the snowmobile before u start driving trough the Mountains and experience the insane Landscape as well as the rush from driving the snowmobile on the snowy underground. U get a guided tour and drive around an hour around bevor returning to the camp. Back in the camp u get a fish soup and some break and some coffee/tea to warm up. All in all the tour fulfilled the expectations and even overcame those. Great tour, expensive, but worth the money, would 10/10 (or here 5/5) recommend!

5.00There were two of us here last year and it was great! Now we three sisters went back to Camp Tamok and spent a great day on the snowmobile! Our guide ''Mikko'' was great! The calmness in person, very informative and humorous. Really a great experience. Also the food was very delicious, this experience is highly recommended!!!
Good experience

4.00We enjoyed the experience. They give you the overalls, boots, balaclavas, helmet and mittens. It takes an hour and a half from tromso to cam tampok, there a half hour to get dressed, then a little practice with the bikes to learn, and then it is 20 minutes each person of the couple on the bike driving. It is extremely cold so I recommend wearing suitable clothes. Then the soup was great and they let you repeat. We also try typical drinks. The staff was very friendly. The only thing to improve that I would highlight is that once there, you are told to pay insurance of 25 euros per person because if something happens to the motte you would end up paying 8,500 euros. In the end we all pay for it but I think for the price of the experience it should be included.
Snowmobile activity - Enough Boff

3.00We found the short excursion time (about 20-25min drive) with 30-40min break. The photo is taken in a place where there is no real “spot”. In addition, the circuit is quite "circular". It is quite expensive.
Almost perfect

4.00The excursion started with a fantastically beautiful 1.5 hour drive to Camp Tamok. The preparations for the snow-mobile tour went smoothly and well organized. Also riding the snowmobile itself was great! Afterwards there was delicious soup and tea waiting for us. Again very friendly staff. Only flaw we found the waiting time between dinner and the bus ride to Tromso. After dinner we had to wait another hour for the bus to leave and that was really too long.... But all things considered it was great!
Snowmobiling around Camp Tamok

5.00Well organised and very safe with clear instructions for driving a snowmobile, even for beginners. The guide (unfortunately I didn’t catch his name, but was French) ensured we all had a safe and rewarding drive. The food offered at the Sami tent was both hearty and warm, with second rounds if you wanted! I would recommend this trip.
Disappointed

1.00The activity consists of making circles in the 2 fields adjoining the starting point with a small hike of 15 min in the forest to take a photo! The experience is really made for a beginner’s initiation and you should not hope to discover the region with this organization. It is impossible to exceed 20km/h or get off the trail without being stopped and reprimanded!
Disappointed

2.00We had a half hour delay being picked up on top of having to be there half an hour early.I feel the experience should have been cancelled as the weather was extremely bad into the tour resulting in it been cut short.Also be aware of been asked to take out extra insurance cover to cover any accidental damage to the snow mobiles but we weren't allowed to check for any existing damage and also no checks were made as to who had ridden which particular snow mobile.Also protective clothing was wet already when allocated .

5.00We stayed overnight at Camp Tamok. After arriving, we had a great snowmobile ride with the Northern Lights 👍after a great evening with a campfire and a night in a small, cozy chalet, we had a dog sled safari in the morning in the best weather. It was just a great time with new acquaintances. Highly recommended
