Tromsø: Arctic Fjord Cruise & Fishing Experience
Overview
Available languages

Mobile ticket
Explore the fjords the local way in Arctic winter on this small-group, all-inclusive fjord and fishing adventure. Cruise across the Arctic Sea to wildlife-rich Rya Island and Ramfjord—one of our best fishing spots—guided by an experienced local captain. No big crowds, no rushing between locations: we stop, fish, and explore in comfort with warm indoor areas, thermal suits, meals, and hot drinks included.
Keep your camera ready for white-tailed eagles, dolphins, otters, seabirds, and maybe even reindeer or moose along the shore. Winter fjords are raw, quiet, and unforgettable.
Why we’re different: fewer guests, fishing included, wildlife-focused routes, local crew, and no hidden costs. Catch cod, haddock, or coalfish and enjoy fresh soup made onboard—plus fillets to take home if luck is on your side.
For over a decade, our family has shared Tromsø’s fjords with travelers from around the world. Join us and become part of the story—we can’t wait to welcome you aboard.

5.00Fabulous experience, unfortunately it is not possible to give more 5 stars because they deserve more. Starting from the sympathy and courtesy of both our guide Ken and the cook "mom chef". On February 2nd at 10.00 we left, they explained the safety rules, explained how to use the fishing rod and then there was a large unlimited buffet that accompanied us throughout the journey (5 hours) based on a good variety of biscuits both dry and cream, a wide choice of tea filters, hot chocolate, other juices and fresh water, all included. We were sitting near the kitchen, and we saw the excellent cook prepare before our eyes, a delicious soup, as good as homemade, indeed by boat🙂 and are also attentive to those who have intolerances, in fact 4 of us, they gave it no cream. When we got out of the cabin, Ken picked up some fish from a box and started waving it in the air, and right after that, an eagle came, and then he threw the fish into the water, and the eagle swooped in to catch it, show! During they told us several stories about the landscapes and islands we met, and at one point we stopped to fish (I was not able) and incredibly 3 guys really caught 4 fish even of several kilos, after Ken filleted them, of one we also tried the caviar eggs he had inside, and took them immediately to the cook, to cook them. Being close to the kitchen, we were also intoxicated with the delicious scent of fish, cooked very well, by the cook who despite not speaking Italian, tried to understand and speak, just affable. For lunch we were served cod soup and another fish that I don't remember exactly the name, and golden and fried cod and focaccia, and then there were desserts and fruit, and since a girl, Italian like us, had her birthday on a slice of chocolate cake they put a candle and after lighting it we sang Happy birthday. It was really a memorable experience, they all looked like one big family, it went well beyond our expectations!
Amazing experience. Highly recommended

5.00What an incredible day!! First, the staff is top notch. They were all very friendly and helpful. We traveled with our five-year-old daughter and everyone was so gracious. The Captain let her sit in the first mate’s chair in the Captains Quarters! The views of the fjords were stunning and the wildlife - white tailed eagle and red foxes - were majestic in their natural habitat. The fishing was wonderful! Almost everyone who wanted to fish caught a fish! One the way back we enjoyed delicious fish soup! I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a little adventure and some picturesque views of Tromso’s landscape!
Great trip

5.00My son and husband and I enjoyed the tour very much. Husband caught an Atlantic cod. The views of the mountains and homes were beautiful with the snow. We learned a lot about Tromso and Norway from our guide Ken. Loved the snacks and fish soup made from everybody’s catch. The soup was delicious and we got the recipe from the chef on board.
Fantastic fjord trip!

4.00It was a wonderful tour!! Price performance has been really great!! Especially the employees were nice from the first moment! They even put my child (9 years) in the cockpit and explained everything 🤩 Unfortunately, the fishing had been far too short! We were about 80 people and you had only 8 fishing rods... and had to take turns. That wasn’t tragic either, but it felt 10min tried and then we had to continue to try somewhere else 😑 we booked the tour mainly wg fishing, so the disappointment was great that it was so short. But, if you were so set in advance, it is definitely worth it!!! And the soup was the best we had on the trip!! Thanks 🤗
