This was the highlight of our week. Beautiful boat, great knowledgeable crew. Nothing was too much trouble - they could tell you anything you wanted to know about the boat, the town or life in Norway. They clearly love their boat and their town. Warm clothing, hot drinks lovely food and ever changing landscape. What more can you ask

A beautifully rugged cruise in a classic wooden fishing ship made for a magical November evening. The crew was so pleasant and informative.

Natalia and Halst (?) we're truly great hosts. There were two 8th - graders on work experience as well. All staff made us feel welcome, and there was a great atmosphere on the boat. Cups of tea and coffee were freely available and made for us too. Storied and anecdotes from the older staff kept us interested as we sailed through the stunning scenery of the fjords. We were lucky enough to see a white tailed eagle swooping down after circling the boat for quite some time. Halst threw some fish heads into the water, and we were treated to a spectacle of nature as this enormous creature came down to take the fish head. We also saw some seals in the distance, but we think they were scared off by some horses riding along the shoreline, so sadly, we didn't get to see them up close and personal. All in all, it was a very worthwhile experience.

Great boat trip to see the eagles and views. Also, lovely to hear the history of the area and boat. Friendly staff guiding the tour and providing refreshments.

Absolutely perfect. Peaceful and informative. We even got a warm fish cake snack and hot coffee. Great photo opportunities and learned some history about the local area. Would recommend!

The trip and the boat were very good, but there was almost no guding. Only three very small talks about the company and the sinking of Titpitz. Nothing about the city, the fishing, etc. I am quite disappointed..!

Stunning views of the fjords! The ship was wonderful and has a great story. Friendly and helpful crew. Would have loved more history, and still enjoyed the experience very much.

This trip was the highlight of our time in Tromsø. The staff were so very friendly and really made this excursion one to remember. Thanks for a memorable day.
