From Tromsø: All-Inclusive Whale and Sea Bird Boat Cruise

1. From Tromsø: All-Inclusive Whale and Sea Bird Boat Cruise

Embark on a boat tour through the waters of Tromso and Skjervoy and watch for whales and wildlife as you gaze at the beautiful landscapes of Norway. Spot different animals, in particular, the Orca, and learn the history from your guide. Begin the tour at 8 AM and be the first boat into the whale-watching area from Tromso. Take your time admiring the majestic Orca whales in complete silence for the ultimate chance to hear their charming calls. While on board, delight in food and snacks, and sip on a hot drink. Look out over the landscape and hear the crew's stories and information about the whales, and other wildlife such as seagulls, the white-tailed eagle, guillemots, wider ducks, and cormorants. Discover the coast of Tromso and SKjerboy, widely considered among the best areas in the region for spotting whales. Be on the lookout for the inquisitive humpback and killer whales swimming and feeding on herring. Frame all the action through the lens of your camera. With outdoor decking and indoor seating on board the heated boat, you can enjoy an up-close experience with Norway’s native wildlife.

Tour was very good for us. We saw fins, humpbacks, and orcas. The crew is very knowledgeable, professional, and they provide suits to assist with the cold and wet. The vegetarian stew had a very good spice and was nice at the end of the day. Remember to dress warm and enjoy the amazing views. Later in the season, the whales leave so remember to book it before mid-January to help ensure you see them. Hot cocoa, coffee, and tea with some sweet cookies are endless. If you time it right, you can see the sun’s return in January. Check the calendar.

Great informative friendly guides. Felt A little sea sick on return ; but passed quickly . Fantastic experience to see and hear about The Orcas , plus the beautiful landscape .
