Highly recommended. It was an amazing experience to see the fjord from the sea. The scenery around is absolutely breathtaking, and luckily the weather was nice too. Both Fred and Iona are very knowledgeable about the area, made us feel very welcome and were great during the trip. They deserve a raise!

Set sail through Arctic Fjords

Your Arctic adventure begins in Tromso, where you'll board a hybrid-electric catamaran. From the moment you set sail, expect a very silent journey through the pristine waters of the Arctic. Surrounded by towering peaks and narrow fjords, this silent cruise offers you a front-row seat to the region's unspoiled beauty. As you glide through bays and straits, your guide will point out the fascinating landscapes, ancient island communities, and modern fish farms.

Explore Arctic life & culture

Mid-cruise, you'll stop at a traditional Norwegian drying rack, where stockfish has been produced for centuries. Here, the guide will give you a unique peek into how fish from the fjords make it to your plate—complete with a tasting of local stockfish delicacies. The journey continues as the crew deploys an underwater drone, and you can see the marine life beneath the surface. Don’t forget to grab a pair of binoculars to scan the sky for white-tailed eagles or spot a reindeer onshore if you're lucky. Enjoy a warm drink while taking in the Arctic views to cap off your day.
