Wonderful time in Tromsø and Sommaroy. The weather was on our side and we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights 3/4 night.

Well organised. Our Tourguide Kari was very helpfull and kompetent. We defintely recommend this tour. One star less due to the "rendeer safari", which was just a little round (10 minutes) on a lake. Everything else was really great!

Loved this tour so much! You get it all - the Northern lights, the wildlife, the people and the culture all in one pack, and you still have enough free time left between the activities to explore the lovely city of Tromso on your own. The dogs and reindeer were truly delightful, and a night in Camp Tamok under the clear skies was an unforgettable experience. Great thanks to Tamara, who supported me from the moment I first inquired about the tour - she was able to accommodate my request for custom dates tour on a very short notice and continued to be invaluable once the weather changed for the worse and changes to the itinerary had to be made. Overall, a great way to fall in love with Arctic Norway :)
