  • Convenient way to learn a little bit more about Tromsø

    I would recommend doing this walking tour the first chance upon arrival in Tromsø. It would have truly helped to see where everything was from the start. We did it on our last day, but it was still interesting to hear a little bit more history than we had before. It was great that the tour automatically paused until you got to the next stop. Made it very convenient to get those photo opportunities, if we needed to go off the tour path for a few minutes.

  • Ok but not blown away
