About this tour

Experience the coastal traditions of Northern Norway on an evening of fishing on Kvaløya, the large island just west of Tromsø. With local guides and a small group, you head to the fjord to try your luck in the Arctic waters.

Fishing conditions depend on weather, tides and season. We always choose the places with the best chances, but a catch can never be guaranteed.

Whatever the catch, the evening ends around the campfire with local food, stories and spectacular coastal scenery. Fresh fish is cooked over the open fire, with grilled Norwegian sausages or a vegan option as an alternative.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience You kept chasing until you encountered a wonderful aurora! I met them perfectly! The staff members encouraged me so I wouldn't succumb to the cold.

Is the hiring worth it The driver, Bela, and the guide Isaac were great and spared no effort to please the group. The guide knows a lot about the Aurora Borealis and was relentless in his hunt. Furthermore, he took many photos with the greatest willingness. Hot dog and very tasty drinks. I highly recommend
