Tromsø Adventures creates authentic, personal experiences close to nature in and around Tromsø – in both summer and winter.



We always operate in small groups to ensure safety, quality and personal attention. Our guides are local and highly experienced in Arctic outdoor life. We make the most of the surrounding nature and showcase the accessible yet spectacular landscapes just outside Tromsø.



Winter season



In winter, we offer cross-country ski courses for beginners and intermediate participants, snowshoe hikes through quiet Arctic landscapes, sledding and cosy outdoor experiences with campfires in the snow. Whether it is your first time on skis or you want to improve your skills, we focus on building confidence, having fun and creating authentic winter experiences.



Summer season



Under the midnight sun, we arrange midnight sun hikes, mountain hikes, SUP tours and kayaking experiences in beautiful surroundings close to the city. The Arctic summer is bright, vibrant and full of energy – and we aim to give our guests a sense of calm, connection and shared adventure.



On our tours, we serve local Norwegian snacks – a true taste of Northern Norway – and create space for conversations and memorable moments around the fire, on the mountain or by the water.



We also tailor experiences on request for private groups, families and companies looking for something unique and personal.
