Showshoeing with Henrik - Henrik, our guide, made sure we all had a great time. He made sure everyone was safe and comfortable and kept us going with his wit :D The trek itself, was super cool, not too hard but just the right amount of adventure, especially for someone who is showshoeing for the first time. The view from the top of the hill, overlooking the fjords was just breathtaking! We even did the slide down from a snowy hill which was absolutely thrilling. Oh and not to forget the delicious hot chocolate, cookies and baguette we had for lunch! All hearts! Thanks a lot for the wonderful experience <3

Fun experience - We had an amazing day in perfect weather with oviously experienced and well prepared guide Hendrik who is very talkative and provided lot of information and tips around Tromsø and Norway. It was quite easy for everyone to walk with snowshoes after short instructions. The lunch picknick with hot chocolate, tea or coffee was provided at the top of the hill with amazing views. Going down it was also possible to sled as optional additional fun. Altogether a very successful half day trip.

Best way to explore the mountains/ fjords near Tromsø! - My boyfriend and I had the absolute best time snowshoeing on this tour! It was a perfect way to get to see the area around Tromsø, without having to rent a car or snowshoe gear ourselves. Our tour guides were fantastic and we got so lucky with a beautiful sunny day! The tour guides brought us to a stunning view point on top of Nattmålsfjellet on Kvaløya island, we had a lovely 3 hours of snowshoeing, and they took fantastic photos of us throughout the whole tour! They also made sure to split the group based on preferred pace/experience which ensured all on the trip enjoyed the hike. 10/10 would recommend and go again! Thanks so much Armand for going above and beyond! Fantastic photographer and guide

Nice walk in the mountains - Beautiful snowshoe ride in the mountains above the fjord. Our very friendly guide Hendrix introduced us to a natural place close to Tromso (a short distance by minibus). This first snowshoe experience will remain a wonderful memory.

An amazing experience for everyone! - This was an amazing experience. We thoroughly enjoyed hiking the mountains and viewing the fjords with Henrick. He was great with our nine year old son and was very good at making sure everyone in our group was having a good time. Also the pictures he took were beautiful. A big thank you to Henrick & Wandering Owl!

Highlight of the Tromsø trip. Yes, would put it above chasing auroras. s. - Henrik and Afghani were amazing. Split the group into two, were motivating and didn't leave anyone behind. Beautiful route! Also took great pictures and left us with happy memories! Weather conditions started sunny and ended in a snow storm-- so really saw all.seasons of Tromsø in a few hours!
