Whale watching adventure from Tromsø (Tromso)

Die Tour hat meine Vorstellungen noch übertroffen. Wie haben an einem nicht so klaren Tag zwar etwas länger gebraucht bis wir die Wale gefunden haben, aber als wir dann die Location erreicht haben war es wie in einem Traum. Die Guides liessen uns auch lange Zeit und wir konnten mehrmals verschiedene Wale sehen. Bei uns waren es Buckelwale und Orcas. Die Guides haben auch auf der Fahrt immer wieder etwas erzählt und achteten auch immer auf genügend Abstand. Die Fahrt mit dem Boot nach Skervøy geht teilweise über das offene Meer und wenn man seekrank wird kann das recht übel werden. Aber wenn das überstanden ist, lohnt es sich sehr.😊

Veel informatie gekregen, uitleg en vriendelijke crew. Boot is perfect en comfortabel.
Beveel Njord adventure sterk aan.

Thankful for this great experience. The communication was on point and the service just great. With patience we were lucky to see Orcas and humpback whales. We were given plenty of time to watch, enjoy and take pictures. I got to know a lot more about the whales we saw than imagined. Thank you Njord team for making our trip extra special.

We had a great trip and saw multiple large orca pods, saw 2 humpback whales and shortly a finn whale. The crew was very friendly and the boat has a good speed. It gets quite bumpy when passing areas closer to the ocean. Also be aware that the boat is driving a long distance until you reach the whale areas. However with Njord we have been one of the first boats there and left as the last boat - so we spend the most time of all other companies with the whales.

The soup which is included is just a small instant soup. That could be improved. They provide free tea and coffee which is nice.

Prachtige ervaring begeleidt door een topduo. Op meerdere locaties orka's en bultrugwalvissen gespot. En op terugweg nog een mooi extraatje gekregen, nl het noorderlicht

Tour incredibile, ragazzi super disponibili e bella atmosfera sulla barca. Sono giovani e indipendenti, da sostenere assolutamente.

We had cookies, tea, coffee and chocolate on board. During the journey there, guides shared us information about the whales we are going to see. We felt absolutely comfortable and welcomed on the boat, we found a pod of orcas that swam close to our boat and followed us too! Close up footage of the whales were on videos that I couldn't upload on Google reviews unfortunately. Time to go see for yourself.

I had an absolutely amazing time on this whale watching tour! I am so happy I chose this company. The staff were incredibly responsible and dedicated, working so hard to make sure we saw both orcas and whales! The boat was very comfortable and cozy, and honestly, the biscuits provided were so delicious—I loved them! Hahaha!! The scenery along the way was breathtakingly beautiful. If I ever have the chance to visit Norway again, I will definitely book with this company again just to go whale hunting with them! Highly recommended!

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 joined a whale tour with Njord Adventures on their small boat. Even though it was fully booked with around 40 people, it never felt crowded. Our guide Hannaleena was very friendly, knowledgeable, and explained everything clearly.

We were incredibly lucky and saw orcas, humpback whales, and even a fin whale. One orca stayed right next to the boat for about five minutes and swam around us, what an unforgettable experience.

These are wild animals, so sightings can never be guaranteed, but the crew always kept a respectful distance and clearly cared about the animals’ well-being.

Absolutely recommended, a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Excellent crew and wonderful boat. We saw humpback whales and many orcas up close. Boat is fast and perfect size, not too big, not too small. We had a bonus on the way back seeing the Northern Lights. I totally recommend this crew and boat and would do it again

We had an amazing whale watching experience with Njord Adventures. The boat is small but comfortable. If you tend to become sea sick, a bigger boat might be a better option but this smaller boat ensures that the group on the boat isn't too big. We had taken another boat in the year before and this experience was closer to the whales and people were not in each other's ways. I also need to mention that the crew made sure to navigate the waters respectfully and carefully and it never felt like we were "chasing" the whales and let them come towards us instead. The guide and the captain were very nice and did a great job. I would always book again with this company.

We spent the day searching for the Orcas. We were lucky as they made an appearance. We also got to see humpback whales. The trip was well organised and comfortable. Slightly bumpy in places so I'd recommend taking sea sickness tablets if you're prone to that. The guide had a good knowledge and there was a general feeling of respect for nature and the whales. I would highly recommend.

Njord adventures We had an excellent day with Hannaleena and Jörn. Their expertise on whales and navigaation on the sea was top notch. If you are looking for nontouristic approach and hassle free (as said in the prochure) whale watching tour, this is it!

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!

Des conditions météo de notre côté, une traversée à travers les Fjord sublime avec des couleurs pastels. Des baleines, des orques, un aigle et pour couronner le tout des aurores boréales sur le chemin du retour. Les équipes à bord étaient exceptionnelles. Merci pour ce rêve éveillé ! Une émotion rare de voir tout cela.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Ausflug mit Njord Adventures. Die Kommunikation war von Anfang an sehr gut – wir haben die Tour bereits einige Wochen vor unserer Reise nach Tromsø gebucht, da uns ein kleines Boot mit wenigen Teilnehmern besonders wichtig war.

Einen Tag vor der Tour erhielten wir eine E-Mail mit der Information, dass am Vortag leider nicht viele Wale gesichtet wurden und man deshalb mit einem größeren Boot hinausfahren würde, um die Chancen zu erhöhen. Uns wurde dabei völlig offen gelassen, die Tour kostenfrei zu stornieren, falls das nichts für uns wäre – das fanden wir sehr fair.

Wir haben es absolut nicht bereut, teilgenommen zu haben. Wir fühlten uns jederzeit gut aufgehoben: Die gesamte Crew war unglaublich freundlich und aufmerksam. Für alles war gesorgt – Tee, Kaffee, heiße Schokolade, Snacks und sogar eine warme Suppe.

Besonders beeindruckt hat uns der respektvolle Umgang mit den Tieren. Die Crew näherte sich den Walen mit viel Rücksicht und ließ ihnen stets ausreichend Freiraum. Ein rundum tolles und verantwortungsbewusstes Erlebnis, das wir sehr empfehlen können.

200+ orcas in one day ... what an amazing day this was, I cant thank you guys and recommend your company enough ... Thanks for the memories

Whale watching tour yesterday 08/12/25 fantastic dat out 👍it’s about three hours getting to the feeding grounds but so worth it 😬tea coffee hot chocolate biscuits soup all on board! Very professional crew very informative! I enjoyed it so much I’m going again on Sunday !!!! Lots of orcas which is my main thing also seen several humpback whales got done great video footage that I can’t stop looking at 😁😁😁😁😁definitely worth doing

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

Estuvo muy padre, pudimos ver orcas y ballenas en el tour. Igual dan café y galletas todo el viaje y te regalan una sopa al regreso. Los guías muy amables y atentos

Had the most incredible day, I would reccomend this tour to anyone and everyone. After a failed tour with another company this tour exceeeded my expectations. We saw orcas, finn, and humpback whales it was truly sensational. Every direction you looked there were whales as far as the eye could see. We never felt rushed and spent hours watching them splash around. So thankful this tour was recommended to me and the crew were an absolutely delight, thank you so much for helping me tick this off my bucket list! 🥰😍

Had a brilliant trip with Njord Adventures.

The boat is great, plenty of space. The journey, whilst long, is stunning. The crew are knowledgable and friendly and they get you close enough to be in awe of these wonderful creatures whilst still respecting their space.

It was a really magical and emotional day which I'll never forget and I'd recommend this trip to anyone visiting Tromsø.

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!

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!

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

An unforgettable experience with Njord Adventures!

It was absolutely beautiful. For the first time in our lives, we saw whales – including orcas.
We started the tour at 08:15 AM and returned around 4:00 PM. The weather was fantastic and the scenery was breathtaking: snow-covered fjords, stunning nature, and incredible light.

Yes, it was freezing cold, but that only made the experience even more special. We were able to watch the orcas for almost two hours, which was truly magical.

The Njord Adventures team was incredibly friendly, professional, and welcoming. We felt well taken care of throughout the entire trip.

We would definitely book another tour with them and can highly recommend Njord Adventures!

Lifetime experience! 🤩 friendly and helpful crew, safe boat and fantastic views of Whales, Orcas and fjords! 🐋

We had the most wonderful time with Njord Adventures! The boat was the perfect size - not too big or crowded but still big enough to have a heated indoor space to warm up. We saw lots of orcas, humpback whales and a fin whale. The team was lovely and we stayed a bit longer than expected as we encountered a pod of orcas as we were leaving the area.

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!

The trip with Njord Adventures was unforgettable! I’ve done the whales tour before with other boats and, in my opinion, theirs have a good compromise with size, speed and comfort. It’s only 2h30 to reach the fjords where the whales are, which allowed us to stay much more time around there to try to spot them. We spend a long time enjoying Orcas and Hampacks and got a beautiful gift in the end with a curious Orca playing sooo close to the boat. And that was thankful to them that pushed a bit longer as the weather was good and they could spot more animals around. We had a safe trip, they respect the animals, their space, the distance. We had hot drinks and snacks available the whole time and soup on the way back. Jørn sailed us very safely and also safe for the whales. Hannaleena was super kind, full of knowledge and very passionate. She was all the time checking the fjords to try to spot them. We had explanations about the weather conditions, what to expect and all the details of the whales we’ve seen and their behavior. We were even more lucky to get crazy Northern Lights on the way back, as the weather was completely clear. I totally recommend them! Happy birthday Hannaleena !

Simply amazing!! The crew is incredible, very friendly. You can literally feel they love what they are doing. Beyond our expectations.. If you are looking for something cozy, friendly and polite feeling, this is your go 😊

Fantastic unique experience today, thank you so much ”Njord Adventures”, a day to remember 🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🐋

Memorable journey with Njord Adventures. Small group, very polite and kind stuff, helpful and dedicated to participants, they informed us at all times about whales around us. Very nice gesture at the end by giving us a small souvenir for the time we enjoyed with them. If I were to do this experience again , I would choose Njord as well.

Den här turen är 5 av 5.
En otrolig Guide som delar så fint med sig av sina kunskaper. De respekterar djuren..vilket säkert djuren förstår.
Denna dag kom de till båten och var nyfikna..istället för att jaga dem.
Trygg båt. Kaptenen av båten otroligt bra.
Säger bara.
Välj detta bolag! ❤️❤️❤️

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!

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

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.

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!

Gestern waren wir mit Njord Adventures auf Whalewatching Tour. Es ist absolut empfehlenswert. Auf dem Weg hin gibt es einen kleinen Vortrag über die Wale die man sehen könnte. Wir waren eines der ersten Boote bei den Walen und man merkt den Guides ihre Liebe zu den Tieren wirklich an. Alle haben die Zeit vergessen und wir waren bis es zu dunkel wurde um etwas zu sehen im Fjord. Es wurde sehr respektvoll mit den Walen umgegangen. Andere Boote sind nahezu in die Wale reingefahren, bei uns kamen die Wale von selbst sehr nah ans Boot. Hannaleena und ihre Crew waren sehr hilfsbereit und immer sehr sehr freundlich. Sie haben sich gegen das Arbeiten in einem Unternehmen entschieden, das gegen die ethischen Grundsätze der Welt der Wale arbeitet und sich selbstständig gemacht. Auf dem Rückweg gab es Suppe und Hannaleena hat nochmals erklärt, welche Wale wir gesehen haben. In unserem Fall Finnwale, Orcas und Buckelwale. Das Team hilft auch bei der Wal Research und beobachtet genau, welche Wale im Fjord auftauchen. Sollten wir wieder mal in tromso sein, ist eine Tour mit Njord Adventures fester Programmpunkt vielen Dank euch für diesen unvergesslichen Tag
