wonderful experience - Brigitte the instructor was very knowledgeable and very helpful. the scenery was beautiful and the visit to Hella was very special.

Highly recommended - An exhilarating ride and very informative We drove to Hella island - saw Eagkes and lots of nesting birds The dolphins also put on a display for us

Exciting boat excursion to see Norway - My husband, 10 year old daughter and I booked this last minute and were very happy we did. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and took us on an exciting boat ride and looked for wildlife. We had a beautiful sunny day and were able to dip into the water when we stopped at Hella for coffee….bring your suit if you want to go in to the water or you can just wade in. Though we didn’t have a lot of luck seeing wildlife, it was still very enjoyable and we would do it again. One thing to note, you ride the boat straddled on the inflatable hump and must be able to climb in and out of the boat and get your leg over the seat…this could prove challenging for those with mobility issues. However, it was quite fun to be speeding across the fjord in the open air and we would highly recommend.

Fabulous trip - The highlight was our wonderful Captain who made the whole experience fantastic. I only wish I had known that swimming was an option as I would have brought a swimming costume and a towel…

A great adventure! - This is a terrific way to see Tromso and the beautiful area surrounding the city. The trip was very easy to book through Viator and the meeting spot was easy to find. Francisco was our guide and he met us right on time and thoroughly explained everything before we headed over to get dressed for the trip. The company provides warm suits and water proof boots for every guest. It was a short walk to the pier from the office and Francisco directed each passenger to their seat based on size so couples won't necessarily be seated together. We headed out from the dock and had a great adventure. Our trip took us around the large island in the harbor (I forgot the name) to see what wildlife and birds we could see from shore. Francisco knows his animals so we learned a lot about what we were seeing. The trip was about three hours from start to finish, but you will not be on the boat the entire time as there is a stop on a small pier where you can get off the boat, take off the suit if you wish, and enjoy a snack and hot beverage. We had glorious weather so the pictures were spectacular. A couple of planning thoughts - the port was busy when we were out so other boats were coming and going. You will very likely get wet and the only place to stow your belongings is on the floor at your feet. Don't bring what you don't need; consider leaving wallets, purses, backpacks etc on your cruise ship or in your hotel room. The ride can also get bumpy so it's a good idea to have your phone on a lanyard so you don't drop it overboard. You can also put small items like a phone inside the suit to keep them dry when not in use. The ride was exhilarating. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see Tromso from a different and fun perspective.

Great trip - This was an excellent trip and I would recommend it to anyone. We saw puffin close up, harbour porpoises and heron and heard a great deal about the sea eagle. We also had a lovely break in the sunshine by the little jetty. Totally on time too.

Thrilling trip - Great guide who kept us informed fully on all safety aspects and was also very informative throughout the excursion. Would thoroughly recommend Francisco!

Worthwhile - Great weather and trip. Saw several porpoises. Good gear provided. Coffee and muffins on Hella. Good value for money.

RIB Boat Ride - Our guide had great info about the area. The boat ride was fun and we enjoyed the hot coffee and tea on the island. Beautiful scenery.

Definitely recommend - This was a great trip, the perfect length and excellent value for money. We met lovely people and had a good laugh, and it was hugely exhilarating.
