Hello, thank you for your video. I will be in Tromso next December. Do you have an agency to recommend to me for booking my excursions? Thanks

Hi, I booked my Aurora Safari through Best Arctic (bestarctic.com) and my boat trip through Visit Tromsø (visittromso.no) and I would recommend them both - no hassle, good communication etc. Visit Tromsø also has lots of information about activities and trips. For the museums and cable car, I just bought tickets on arrival (you can buy them through Visit Tromsø as well but I don't think there would be any advantage in doing so). Have a great trip!

There's a short period of daylight, probably 10am-3pm or thereabouts. I don't know about whale watching but I'd suggest you look at websites like Visit Tromsø as they have lots of whale watching information. Have a good trip if you go 👍

We stayed on this wonderful site for two nights 4 or 5 years ago in a Force 8 or 9 Gale. It seems a lot bigger now. On the 2nd night the Gale turned from a South Westerly to a North Westerly and we managed to turn our van thru 90 degrees to keep it's nose into the wind. It turned colder but at least the horizontal rain stopped! The noise of the rigging didn't bother us, in fact it added to the atmosphere 👍👍

Yes, they've added more pitches in the last few years I believe. Sounds like a memorable stay! It's funny, the rigging noise is the sort of thing that would usually bother me but it doesn't seem to and I would agree it adds to the atmosphere, gives you a sense of where you are!

Wow brilliant video, many thanks, stunning, I Started 15 years ago visiting Tromso and I think I only missed 4 trips, I have also just bought an Inst 360 x4 camera and will be using it this December, although it has not got a good rating for low light photography, living in Cambridge I use Luton airport with WIZZ Air which are really cheap flights, also at the airport I don't use the local buses, I use Bussring which parks right outside the front door of the terminal, and it's a dedicated coach bus into town which is only 10 minutes, the first stop is at the Scandic Grand hotel next to the Thon hotel.

Thanks! Yes, I was surprised how well I could see the aurora from up there. People also say Kongeparken in the city centre is a good spot, or Telegrafbukta (although I didn't try either of those as I had the ticket for the cable car). 👍

Hi, I arrived on 22 Jan and left on 26 Jan. The "Polar night" had officially ended the week before and I had daylight from maybe around 9.30am until 3ish probably, although didn't see the sun itself. It'll be darker for you but I reckon it will still lighten up for a bit during the day. There's a livestream on KZbin - @VervetTroms Utsikt Sør - that gives you a good idea of the daylight. It's crazy how light it is now compared to just a few months ago. Hope you have an amazing time 🙂

@a_weekend_with_us 2 ай бұрын
Thank you. Have a great time! I took cash but found that a lot of places didn't take it, so you would definitely be OK without it. Even the places that did take it would automatically fire up their card machine and I'd have to ask to pay cash! If you want to use public transport, you can buy tickets on the app (single tickets or multi-day ones like I had) - very easy and the buses were reliable.

Let's hope they learnt last time and don't do the same this time. You buy parts go out then have to join the queue at the back, are you sure! Then the hall gets to the point they can't accept entry and you have to wait due to fire health and safety. Larger location I hop this year at the BCM.
