Must Do - Amazing, wonderful, well organized!!! Frederika was our guide and she made me feel safe when I had a slight panic attack in the water (that's probably why she didn't take pics of us in the water, safety first). My fins were too big though, they started coming off (loose) in the water-it was awkward trying to kick to propel myself. Frederika had to swim with me halfway which I was so thankful to her for! She's absolutely fabulous! The pics and vids you see on social media is the exact same thing I saw underneath! Will definitely book with Arctic adventures again in the future!

This should be on everyone's bucket list - Our tour guide Francesca was AMAZING. I went with my girlfriend who had never snorkeled before and Francesca assured her everything would be easy and fine. The is a breath taking experience (not just because of how cold the water is). The dry suits the provide make this so enjoyable and the hot cocoa at the end is a nice little treat.

95 minute wait for pick up. - Booked for a 8:30 pick up, and was instructed to arrive 30 minutes before. This lands us scarfing down breakfast and making our way to our bus stop at 7:50A. We proceeded to have at least 25 buses come and go, picking up everyone but us. This process is frustrating since the moment any tour bus pops up, everyone bum rushes the driver and if you don’t get there in time you miss the name and then the door closes and they drive away. This naturally is creating anxiety for everyone involved. At 8:45 I call AA and they say my driver is on the way. Mind you it’s 34 degrees outside at a bus stop we have now waited an hour for. And we then proceeded to wait another 35 minutes. Once we were on the bus, the driver was apologetic and said he was called in an at earlier start time and he didn’t realize he needed to do his job until 8:44a? He said he would Make up time and he was sorry. We were told on the phone, on the email, on the website to have patience for up to 30 Minutes after the start time.. and I think I had beyond that. I was picked up at 9:20a. Allowing myself the extra ten minutes because nobody told me to do that. I waited a total of an hour and twenty minutes at a bus stop. The experience was nice, the instructors were kind and knowledgeable. The driver dropped us off closer to our hotel which was kind. But at the end of it this morning I received an email asking me to review my snorkel experience and it says my start time was 10a…. Now this is absolutely false, and really pisses me off. I was going to chalk it up and let it go but if you want a review then here it is. I’m sure if I wasn’t at my stop for the 30 before or after like they were asking over and over they wouldn’t have tracked me down and found me. If they just called in the bus driver the minute I called them they should have been honest and up front. It would have allowed us a chance to go get warm, grab a coffee, something. But I had to stand around for another 35 minutes. Once again the divers were kind and informative, and the stars are no reflection of them.

Cancelled tour without any notice - They cancelled our tour without any notice (I found out when they no-showed at the meeting spot and had to call them to find out it was cancelled) and required that I fill out a refund request form to get a refund, rather than them just proactively refunding me

Terrible experience, do not book with this company - Terrible experience. Waited over 2 hours to enter the water, fully suited up in all the heavy, cold and wet clothing, and stood in a long queue. Clothing was tight and uncomfortable to wear for that length of time. Clothing is extremely tight around the neck to stop water from getting in, but I did not expect to stand for over 2 hours in it. I would not recommend using this company. A complaint was made via email, but remained unresponded, and eventually, a response was received, but no consideration was given to the wait time, I was told it was completed within the time frame stated on their website. Be prepared for a very long wait in unpleasant conditions, try using another company.
