Great day tour - Enjoyed the tour with Martin. He was a great guide. Interacted well with the group, funny and provided interesting info to make the trip fun. Also took great photos which he shared promptly. Stopped at various locations around the island which were magical. Buffet soup and dessert lunch included which was great.

A Beautiful Fjords Day, Perfectly Guided by Valentina - This fjords tour was beautiful, and Valentina made it even better. She was warm, easy to be around, and a very good driver. The whole day felt relaxed and smooth. She picked great spots to stop — nothing random, nothing rushed — just the right places to take in the views and enjoy the moment. The drive through Kvaløya and out to Sommarøy was stunning, lunch was lovely, and everything flowed naturally. Valentina’s care and good choices really showed throughout the tour.

A interactive and awesome inspiring trip around the Fjords and islands - From the onset Martin is warm and welcoming and very chatty. His enthusiasm is infectious and his local knowledge was impressive. The landscape and terrain of Kvaløya and Sommarøy is breathtaking taking and Martin made regular stops at beautiful locations to allow us take photographs. And offer to take photos of our group as a free inclusion of the service. The lunch at the Sommarøy hotel was similarly high quality and plentiful. Far from being a quiet drive around the islands and fjords this tour was everybody the interactive journey full of stunning scenery, information and the jovial wit of a very welcoming and knowledgeable guide.

Unforgettable Fjord Tour with Martin around Kvaløya and Sommarøy - Had a wonderful trip on the "Fjords Tour of Kvaløya and Sommarøy" with Martin and 3 other tourists. We made 5 stops on the way to Sommarøy Arctic Hotel along the northwest route and another 2 stops, along the southeast route, while going back to Tromso. Martin shared many of his knowledge and experience of Norway and its region and the scenery is fabulous. We totally enjoyed the trip and would recommend 'Tromsø Accessible Tours' to anyone.

A tour on a human scale, open to all and unforgettable - We had an absolutely great day with our guide Martin! He is a passionate, warm and humorous person who knows the region at his fingertips. Thanks to him, we discovered many beautiful places that we would never have found on our own. We were a small group of only four people (the guide included), which made the tour even more friendly and personalized. He took us by car across the region, under a beautiful sun. Besides, it was our only good weather day of the stay, which made the experience even more special. He also showed us an excellent hotel-restaurant (Arctic Hotel in Sommarøy) for lunch, where we had a long chat with him. You can feel that he is really in love with the region, even if he is not from it (he is Spanish), and he introduces it with communicative enthusiasm. In addition, he speaks several languages, including French, which makes the exchanges very easy and pleasant. Beyond the beauty of the landscapes, what we particularly appreciated was the philosophy of Tromsø Accessible Tours: to make the discovery of the fjords and the region possible for everyone, with respect for the rhythm, comfort and needs of everyone. This sincere attention to accessibility, in the broad sense, human as well as material, gives the experience a rare depth. In short, a great experience, both rewarding and full of good humor. We highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone who wants to discover the area differently!

Successful travel - Very successful travel. I am a amateur photographer looking after northern lights, and having had a very bad experience last year in Iceland.Chasing northern lights, it was OK, with two nights of success out of 3. Very good installations and food, very kind and careful people. I recommend for photo lovers. We were by ourselves but for a visit with dinner to the Sami people.
