Nice half day out across the fjords - Best trip we made in a busy mini break in Tromso. Guides are knowledgeable, friendly and informative. There are drinks and snacks available for free as well as a fish soup. Other local snacks available for purchase at competitive prices. Recommend the arctic fish burger!

An excellent half day out to fish! - The boat was docked at the Northern end of downtown Tromsø, which has convenient EasyPark parking lots nearby. The boat had plenty of space for the entire group; most groups being able to secure their own table the day we went.
The crew was absolutely amazing. They tossed frozen fish to show us the white-tailed eagle. They taught us to fish cod and later gutted them, showing us how to identify male and female. The crew member speaking on the mic knew so much about everything, local wildlife, passing locations, and history.
They used the cod we made to make a delicious soup for lunch which we also enjoyed with Norwegian flatbread.
The views were stunning when it was clear but we still had fun and stayed warm when there was heavy snow.

A fantastic scenic cruise and we caught fish - A fantastic trip. We had a lovely sunny day for it and the views were stunning. My children loved the fishing stops and my youngest caught two cod. The young man helping with the fishing was so patient, friendly and knowledgeable he really made the fishing a great experience for the children. He even offered to gut and fillet the fish for us to take away with us at the end.
We didn't see much wildlife apart from Reindeer in the distance on the shore. But the sea was pretty rough due to the wind. I would really recommend this trip for the beautiful views and the fishing experience. The fish soup was extremely tasty too 😍 My only suggestion would be there should be more fishing rods available to use so that people aren't waiting so long for a turn.

Brilliant boat trip - We loved this trip. The crew were really attentive and gave a lot of interesting information about the fjords and arctic wildlife. We had never fished before and we both caught cod for lunch, which was brilliant. The fish soup was delicious. Highly recommended!

Nice cruise - The boat was comfortable, warm, the crew very welcoming, there were complimentary hot drinks and cookies , as well as an extraordinary fish soup with refill possible . For those wanting more, there were fish burgers, waffles and salty snacks available at the bar.
The cruise was very nice and we were all given a chance to catch some fish.
Unfortunately the wildlife was practically absent în this season.

Cruise - Nice experience seeing the fjords from the sea. Breathtaking landscapes. Of fauna we have seen little, only birds. It was not time for whales etc. Very good fish soup, slightly spicy. Less good vegetables. Although there were many of us on the boat there was room for everyone. Excellent possibility to keep warm with tea/ coffee/ hot chocolate.

Great trip, interesting and fun - It was a well organised trip with very friendly and helpful guides, we enjoyed the hot drinks , biscuits and delicious soup, we wasn’t lucky with seeing wildlife apart from some eagles, but we were given interesting local history along the outward and return trip. The best bit was the fishing experience which most of us caught fish on our lines.
