Tromsø Island Tour
The tour starts in the city center with a brief introduction to the city and its history.
The tour will give an overview of the Island of Tromsø, its history and the surrounding area. We will make a stop on the island Kvaløy, visit the beach at Telegrafbukta, cross to the mainland to visit the Arctic Cathedral and finish with a ride up the Cable Car (Fjellheisen) to go up to enjoy the most spectacular view of the island of Tromsø and the group of islands behind it.
Our guide will provide information about the region, flora, fauna, and geography.
The tour lasts for 4 hours. It ends back in the city center or cruise ship quay.
In our tours we accept wheelchair users or PRM. We also are prepared to guide people with visual or hearing impairments, as well as neurodivergent people as well.
Please note:
- If the Cable Car is closed for any reason, we will replace that stop with a 1 hour guided visit to the Tromsø Arctic University Museum, with a focus on Sámi history.
- Due to maintenance, the cable car is closed until July. During this period, the tour will be offered at a reduced price.
