Top Tromso Food, Wine & Nightlife

Enhance your experience of Norwegian traditions on a half-day reindeer sledding and Sami culture experience from Tromso. On arrival at the homestead, get acquainted with a herd of about 300 reindeer during a feeding session. Then, embark on a short and exciting reindeer sleigh ride through picturesque frozen landscapes. Warm up with coffee and classic Sami dishes inside a ‘lavuu’ (traditional Sami tent) and listen to stories and songs derived from ancient cultural traditions.

There are few Arctic sights more dazzling than the northern lights. With this night cruise, set sail along the coastline of Tromsøya Island to try and catch a glimpse of this spectacular natural phenomenon while enjoying a dinner of local tapas-style dishes. Enjoy views of the twinkling lights of Tromsø along the shore while gliding silently through the waters of the Norwegian Sea.

Experience the rich culture of the Arctic during this dinner with Sami Reindeer Herders and, if you’re lucky, a chance to see the Northern Lights. Settle in for a night of cultural immersion and conversation with some Sami people, an indigenous Scandinavian group that inhabits the region’s far north. After exploring their reindeer camp you’ll dig into a tasty three-course meal, capping it off by attempting to view an Aurora Borealis light show. A guide, dinner and round-trip transport from Tromso are included.

Taste your way through Tromso’s best brews with a 3-hour beer tour in the Gateway to the Arctic. Explore the city on foot as you trace a route to three atmospheric pubs and bars. Sample locally produced beer, learn about Norway’s brewing traditions, and taste a classic dark lager from the world’s northernmost brewery. Try ten beers alongside ‘Arctic tapas’ like reindeer carpaccio or cold-smoked salmon, and get an insider’s perspective on the best places to eat and drink in Norway’s far north.

Northern Lights from the seaside is a special and very beautiful sight. Light-pollution disappears literally into the black sea. We keep ourselves in protected waters, and find the best place for aurora activity. A maximum of 12 guests per trip provides a social, homeley and cozy atmosphere. We live on board in the winter time ourselves. AS an added bonus you get with an amazing good view of Tromsø area by night. Local skippers and crew with great knowledge and years of experience will make this an extra memorable trip. A traditional homemade fish meal of the best quality, and hot drinks are included.
