Whale watching adventure from Tromsø (Tromso)

Excellent safari!

Very lucky ，看到好多鱼，好多好多鱼

It was a really nice experience to participate in whale safari. Those memories will last quiet a long time. The crew was amazing an very helpful. Their hospitality was on the highest level. I truly recommend to choose Njord Adventures.

Es war einfach perfekt!

Amazing even though I was sea sick. Amazing explanations, I would have loved even more. The boat was decent size so we were not too many compared to some boats we saw. I really appreciate the respect the crew had for the wild life

Wir hatten einen fantastischen Tag an Bord der Sylvkallen. Die Crew war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Strecke führte an einem unglaublichen Panorama vorbei. Bei Skjervøy angekommen haben wir Buckelwale und Orcas gesehen, einfach unglaublich beeindruckend. Die Crew hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben, wir haben viel über die Wale, ihr Verhalten und die Gegend erfahren. Kurzum: wir sind begeistert und würden die Tour nochmal buchen

We had a fabulous time with the team at Njord Adventures. Pro-Tip: BRING ANTI-NAUSEA meds. The seas are rough and it's a 3-4 hour journey before you reach where the whales are located. The whales are fantastic and worth putting up with the other sea sick travelers!

A awesome Experience! Nice boat Size, Not too big and Not to Small. Theres Coffee and tea on Board and you can warm up inside a Little Bit if its to cold. We saw millions of Orcas and a few humpback whales. Thanks for Having us on Board. Next time again:)

This is THE trip to book! Forget the big boats! Will definitely be back.

Muy buena experiencia. Ése día era especialmente frío y no vimos demasiada actividad. Pero los fiordos, el ambiente y las orcas que nos rondaron junto con dos breves ballenas a lo lejos hicieron un día para recordar.
El grupo es muy reducido permitiendo disfrutar más de la actividad.
En el barco hay café, té, sopa, chocolate caliente y galletas para disfrutar de un descanso entre los avistamientos en el exterior.

Fantastic experience!
Well organised, we stayed longer than other tour providers offer due to the boat being able to get there and back quicker
Crew very knowledgeable, passionate about the whales and kind.
Nice coffee & chocolate onboard is a good bonus!
Highly recommended, would do it again!

After researching options I’m very glad to have booked with Njord. Every day out in the sea is different and in many ways the sea gods blessed us on our tour, but I’d go out with them again any day. Great combo of care for the guests and marine life!

Simply lovely Had an amazing trip with this company. People with so much passion and very open-minded. We saw 4 species of whales!😍

Highly recommend to book your trip here

Hannaleena and her team make the whale safari a truly amazing experience. They have a small, excellent, and very fast boat that allows them to reach more remote bays, ensuring whale sightings. They are incredibly friendly, helpful, informative, and don’t watch the clock - they genuinely want the best for their customers. During our tour, they went over an hour past the scheduled time because a whale family followed us in the fjord and we had incredible moments.

NjordAdventures is highly recommended!

Amazing experience. Today's experience was incredible. Not only did we see multiple orca but we got to see two humpback whales and the Northern lights on the ride back in. Words can not explain how great this trip was. The knowledge of the local guide Hannaleena was fantastic and the boat skipper Daniel did a great job of getting us close to the whales and keeping them safe.
Thankyou for an incredible day

Amazing experience, we were lucky and we saw a group of orcas and two humpback whales, they were really close, the wales also passed under our boat!

Had a fantastic two days of watching orcas, humpback and fin whales with NjordAdventures. Would highly reccomend booking a tour with them if you wish to go whale watching from Tromso in winter. The crew are very passionate about what they do and want you to have the best experience possible whilst also following good practices to avoid disturbing the whales.

Will definetly be coming back to Tromso again and booking more tours with them!

It's amazing!!!

Wow! I can't think of a better way to describe the adventure we had with Njord Adventures in Tromsø last Saturday. The experience we booked was even better than expected. We had the opportunity to watch the whales up close, and we were given lots of information. The whole crew was fantastic — so kind, and always pointing out where the orcas were coming from. I would definitely recommend booking a whale-watching tour here, and if we ever come back, this is the tour we want to take again.

Ottima esperienza. La nave era dotata di tutti i comfort necessari (bagno, sedute comode, tavolini e spazio esterno) con un massimo di 36 persone, che penso sia un plus rispetto alle navi da 200 persone. La guida e il capitano sono stati eccezionali: ci hanno spiegato molto bene tutte le fasi dell'attività, lasciando spazio a domande/chiarimenti e soprattutto ci hanno fatto godere ogni singolo momento, rispettando anche il silenzio in alcuni momenti cruciali. Sono stati molto rispettosi dell'ambiente e degli animali marittimi incontrati, cercando di non interferire nelle loro attività, ma facendoci comunque avvicinare abbastanza da creare un momento bellissimo.
Alla fine dell'attività ci son state spiegate le diverse specie incontrate, con tanto di immagini e cartoline ricordo.
Consigliatissimo, attività locale da sostenere assolutamente!

We wanted to have a genuine experience with experts and an adventure too - our trip with Njord Adventures on 6th December 2025 delivered all of this and more! What an experienced crew, Hannaleena was so knowledgeable, informing us on all key aspects, whilst giving us space to experience the journey and serene destination, taking in the experience and encounters with the whales. We felt very safe and well taken care of travelling to and from the location, the ship was warm and comfortable and clearly a most hardy seagoing vessel. It was great to leave early in the day and make the most of the light and have as much time as needed. We were so lucky to see many Orcas feeding and sleepy hump back whales too in the setting of the incredible arctic landscape. My daughter and i will never forget the experience and we hope to return to Norway and book again with Njord Adventures in the future. Sincere thanks to the whole crew for a life changing, wonderous experience. We could not recommend more highly!

Unbedingt empfehlenswerte Tour, die Reiseleiterin war toll. Wir haben viele Wale gesehen und sind noch etwas länger geblieben als die anderen Touren. So konnten wir noch Buckelwale sehen.Es gab heiße Getränke und Kekse und eine leichte Suppe. Allerdings hatte ich mir da nicht unbedingt eine Tütensuppe vorgestellt.

Hey Hannaleena, Daniel and Jørn,
You were very responsive and quick with answers. The boat is beautiful, fast, safe and comfortable: the best option when starting in Tromsø. We were lucky with weather conditions and the wales pleased to show up. Thank you for your hospitality and the unforgettable ride. Emilie&Stefan

Sehr angenehme Tour mit tollen Gastgebern die jederzeit angesprochen werden können und Fragen beantworten. Das Boot hat eine gute Grösse und wir haben viele Orcas gesehen - lediglich die Instantsuppenauswahl hat nicht meinen Geschmack getroffen.

We had a fantastic whale watching trip with the Njord team. We got to spend several hours surrounded by Orcas/Killer Whales as they went about their business! Not only that, but we also got to see Little Auks and Sea Eagles, and the scenery through the fjords was absolutely stunning! Hannaleena and Daniel were very welcoming. We had unlimited access to hot drinks and biscuits. The boat was warm and comfortable. Hannaleena was extremely knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions and share information.

If it would be possible I would rate 6 stars 😜 it was an amazing trip. I am very thankful for that

Tolle Waltour mit einem Boot, welches nicht zu voll ist und respektvoll mit der Natur umgeht. Jederzeit wieder und sehr empfehlenswert!

Njord Adventures saved us from a bad day due to other trip cancellation without having got any information. They were really available for onboarding us and, thanks to their professionality we got a fantastic Whale watching tour! Thank you!

One of the best whale watching tours ever. Thank you for your fantastic and informative tour. Everything was great and we felt very well looked after. Thx Hannaleena and Daniel. Always professional and super relaxed.

Fabulous experience! I was lucky enough to win this tour. Communication, friendliness and the tour itself was good. Although its a small boat tour, we were taken in a big boat to increase chances of seeing them, being end of season. We did see a few including orcas.

Abbiamo fatto un tour con questa compagnia, che dire, barca perfetta, pulita, calda comoda e soprattutto veloce, siamo stati tra i primi ad arrivare nella zona delle balene dopo circa due ore e mezza di attraversata, nel frattempo la guida ci ha spiegato in maniera semplice e veloce un po di cose da sapere a riguardo degli animali che avremmo potuto avvistare.
A bordo c’è una comoda macchinetta per caffè e bevande calde in generale, con tanto di abbondanti biscotti.
Il whale watching vero e proprio è durato circa due ore e mezza, anche di più, e la cosa che ho ritenuto veramente un passo avanti è stata l’abbandonare la zona quando troppe altre barche si avvicinavano alla nostra, ovviamente dopo averci chiesto se fossimo d’accordo e contenti, per cercare altre balene lontano dalle altre imbarcazioni.
Insomma, un’esperienza non propriamente turistica per una volta, e ben più efficace, alla fine abbiamo visto tutto, e anzi siamo stati l’ultima imbarcazione ad andare via, quando saremmo già dovuti essere di ritorno, e i ragazzi ci hanno concesso una mezzoretta da soli con un paio di megattere che stavano riposando in superficie, lasciandoci godere appieno fino all’ultimo istante l’esperienza.
Posso solo dirvi grazie. Tutto stupendo

This was a really great experience, we learned alot about the whales and we also are lucky to see the whales. The boat was also warm and cozy. All the crews were passionate and really helpful. Thank you guys for all of the things. Love it

Highly recommend Njord adventures had a wonderful trip on the 12/12/25 . Friendly and informative crew . Comfortable size boat room for everyone . Great supply of warm drinks and soup which was much appreciated on such a cold day .
Fantastic day enjoyed by us all

It was a perfect day! Amazing crew with a perfectly sized ship and group. We had the best time ever with the most magical views! And they are very respectful towards the whales and always told us where to see them. 1000% recommend!

Excellent day out 🐋 We had an incredible day out with NjordAdventures. Orcas, humpback and fin whales in the space of a few hours! I had the pleasure of sharing this experience with friends and family, most of whom had never seen orcas before so it was very moving to see their reactions. A huge thanks to the guide Hannaleena and skipper Jørn for this amazing experience. If you wish to go whale watching from Tromso for the day, look no further then NjordAdventures! They are truly passionate about what they do and keep a respectful distance from the animals, allowing them to approach the boat on their own terms.

Thanks again!

Wundervolle Tour uns fantastische Guide! Würde ich jedem empfehlen (mit eknem stabilen Magen)- wir haben sehr viele Orcas gesehen

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Unforgettable Experience with an Amazing Team!

What an absolutely fantastic company! Our whale and orca sightseeing tour in Tromsø was nothing short of unbelievable. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, warm, and personal. The two captains, who also acted as our guides, were truly wonderful—knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely excited to share their love for the ocean and its wildlife.

We went out on a small boat, which made the whole experience so much more intimate and special. We were incredibly lucky to see both orcas and whales up close, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The tour took a bit longer than planned, but every single minute was worth it—the owners’ total involvement and care for every guest really showed.

A few tips for anyone planning this adventure: dress very warmly, even in multiple layers, as it gets freezing out on the water. If you’re prone to motion sickness, take seasick medicine in advance, and be prepared—the waters can get quite rough at times.

This is not just another tour; it’s a heartfelt experience run by people who truly love what they do. I’ll definitely be back for another trip in a different season. Highly, highly recommended! 🐋❄️💙

Es war ein wunderbarer Ausflug und wir hatten das Glück Orcas, Buckelwale und einen Finnwal zu sehen. Die Crew war supernett und hat uns viel Wissenswertes über die Wale berichtet. Das Boot hat jederzeit respektvoll Abstand zu den Tieren gehalten. Danke für diesen tollen Tag.

Nous ne regrettons pas d’avoir choisis Njord Adventure, si c’était à refaire ce serra avec eux.
Jeune équipe, à votre écoute, vous informe tout au long de la croisière.
Biscuit, café, chocolat chaud, soupes à bord en libre service.

Just awsome 💙🐳🐋
