Whale watching adventure from Tromsø
From November to January, the fjords north of Tromsø come alive with orcas, humpback whales and fin whales as they gather for their yearly feast on Atlantic herring. Experience a personal and hassle-free whale safari, where you can witness these ocean giants in their natural environment, while taking in the raw, untamed beauty of Northern Norway.
Come share a day with us, the whales, and the beauty of Northern Norway!

At Njord Adventures, we offer our guests an unforgettable opportunity to observe marine life in its natural habitat while sharing insights into its behaviour and biology. We are committed to delivering a safe, educational and inspirational day out at sea, while giving wildlife the respect and space they deserve and require.
As a small, privately-owned business, our goal is to provide our guests with a whale watching experience that feels both professional and personal. Small group sizes, friendly and experienced crew, and respect for wildlife are all things you can expect from us.
Our boat MS Sylvkallen is the smallest boat offering daily whale watching trips from Tromsø. You can get closer to the elements while still having the comfort of warm indoor lounges.

What a wonderful trip. I'm really glad we did this as part of our holiday. Just a warning a couple of people were sick as it got choppy. I love the sea so no problem for me.

07/02/2025Geweldige tour met een geweldige staff aan boord. We zagen tientallen orcas, enkele humpback whales en zelfs sperm whales. De boot was voorzien van verschillende soorten koffie en thee en was niet overvol met mensen.
