“This was one of the best trips we did whilst in Tromso. Our guide, Bernard, took us on a walking tour of the city but we stopped in different venues along the way to sample different beers. Bernard is an excellent guide and no question we asked him went unanswered. He was very knowledgeable about the city and was truly passionate about beers. We had such a great day and we wish Bernard all the best with his future endeavours.”

Northern Lights Tour with Hot Food and Drinks in Tromso

5.Northern Lights Tour with Hot Food and Drinks in Tromso

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 50 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $269

Meet in central Tromsø at 6:20 pm and head into the mountains, fjords, and valleys with an aurora guide. Thermal suits, tripods, photos, hot drinks, snacks, and a fire-cooked sausage meal are included. Guides such as Marius, Kamil, and Hassan may drive far beyond Tromsø to find clear skies.

“Fantastic experience 100% because of our guide. I appreciate the elusiveness of the lights more than I had prior to the trip. Our guide was passionate about getting us a good view- which was noticeable when we were near other groups (how much better this trip was). It took us across Norway and down into Finland - we did not see any activity until around midnight. The lights were active and we ended up with a great show. We did get back around 2:30am, but worth it. Highly recommend this tour!”

Tromso: Cod-Tasting Tour with Full Steam Museum Entry

6.Cod-Tasting Tour with Full Steam Museum Entry

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 45 reviews · 45 min · from $68Best value

At Full Steam Tromsø, a guide leads you through four cod tastings: caviar, cod tongue, stockfish, and cod liver oil. Hear how fishing shaped Northern Norway, then explore Sea Sami, Northern Lights, and maritime exhibits at your own pace. Tobias has guided guests in both English and German.

“An incredibly good tour with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. He not only explained everything very clearly, but also entertained us with personal stories from his childhood. He walked us through the exact steps of traditional fishing and gave us a fascinating insight into both the past and present. The tour also included access to the museum, which you can explore on your own and where you learn a lot about seafaring and famous explorers.”

Tromsø: Fjords & Beaches Tour with campfire and Arctic food

8.Fjords & Beaches Tour with campfire and Arctic food

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 18 reviews · 5 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $310

Travel from Tromsø to Sommarøy and Grøtfjord in a group of up to 12, stopping at fjords, frozen lakes, beaches, and mountain roads. Guides such as Luis, Louis, Alba, and Martin share local and Sami stories, then serve hot drinks and campfire food. Thermo suits, hand warmers, toe warmers, and crampons are provided, but you must bring your own boots.

“Alba and Martin are very nice Tour Guides who told us many interesting things about norwegian and Sami Culture and the history of life around Tromsø. However, the Tour was not what we hoped for following the description. It‘s probably great for tourists staying in town without a rental car, but for people who are mobile and exploring the area on their own, too, it offered no ‚secret places‘ you can‘t find on your own (following the main roads). We saw no animals other than the reindeer beside the road which are there every day. The guides took no professional photos, as we expected from other ratings and the name…”

Walk Tromsø with a local guide, visit the fish market and city sights, then taste five Mack beers at Ølhallen and one beer at Hard Rock Cafe.
