5.00Luxury, nearly private hiking trip: apart from us there was only one other guest, with one very friendly and knowledgeable guide called Evgeniy. We wanted a long but not too difficult hike (I was traveling with my 9 and 12-year old children) and Evgeniy brought us to the perfect place with stunning 360 degree views. It was great to have warm ginger tea and home-roasted coffee at the top. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a hike with a guide yet without being in a large groupe.
Beautiful scenery

4.00Our guides and the scenery were fabulous. The van was very comfortable. The info was a little misleading in a couple of areas. Hiking poles and sitting pads were not provided. Description said a vegan option was available but they decided to go to all vegan for everyone which we didn’t particularly like. Was more of a moderate hike to me, but very doable.
Beautiful hike and lovely experience

5.00This was a brilliant experience, even better than I expected! Gerard was an excellent guide. He picked us up in front of the hotel, drove us around 30 minutes to the start of the hike (but it was so scenic that the time flew by), and then the hike began. It was a great route, not too strenuous, and beautiful! We were a small group - a group of three, and two solo travellers including myself - but everybody was friendly and chatted with each other. We learned lots about the wildlife and nature, but also about Tromso culture and quirks. Gerard gave us sandwiches, tea and coffee at the summit, and took photos along the way - I received these the next day and they're excellent! On the drive back, we saw wild reindeer multiple times. I would happily book this again.
Highly recommend!

5.00Loved this tour! Tour guide Romain was incredible, so knowledgeable and showed a genuine love for what he does! Took great photos too! Was perfect as a solo traveller, great way to hike and meet new people. Wasn’t a strenuous hike- approx 5km return with gradual elevation, and roughly 4 hours which was perfect, highly recommend!
Roman was a wonderful...

5.00Our hike with guide Evgeni was great! The highlight was the spectacular view that was revealed at the peak, after the trek up. It was complimented with some tasty sandwiches, cookies and even coffee!
Great!

5.00Romain was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly! The hike was quite easy but had a great pay-off at the summit. The view of 2 fjords was amazing and the included picnic was great. Even the drive to and from the hiking location was quite scenic and beautiful. I really enjoyed my experience!
