Tour guide was very informative along the journey. Described the areas and fjords. Our driver was exceptional. Numerous stops along the way with wonderful views. Lunch was delicious

Awesome Experience
It was a great experience seeing the surrounds. The tour operator made sure we got to the meeting point in good time. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had some great discussions over lunch. On another note, we met the same guide at Fjellheisen (a magnificent viewpoint) he was leading another tour group, & again at the airport. We recognised each other straight away. So that gives some indication of the trip which was very memorable.

Beautiful scenery and informative; so even when the weather didn’t quite play along it was still a very nice outing.

Saw nothing
Trip run out of season and therefore didn’t see anything. This trip would be excellent in the summer months but they should not be ripping off tourists in the winter.
Response from the operator: Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. The Sommarøy Day Trip is not a seasonal tour but a way to experience the landscapes and culture of Northern Norway all year round. In summer, you can enjoy the midnight sun, and in winter, you can see snow on the beaches and the unique Arctic light. Many of our guests find these contrasts to be a special part of their visit. We regret that this was not the experience you were hoping for, but we truly appreciate your comments. They help us explain more clearly what the tour offers in each season. Best regards, The Northern Norway Travel Team

must see while in Tromsø!
Loved this tour because we got to see another area of Norway that was a little bit different from Tromsø. You make stops along the way to Sommarøy so the drive doesn’t feel too long. Elena was an amazing guide - very informative and thoughtful. She also took amazing pictures along the way!

All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $214 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tromso usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tromso is not rushed.
Is All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 42 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tromso, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour?
+
Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tromso can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tromso and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tromso within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tromso?
+
On Outty we rank every Tromso experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chasing Lights: Aurora Big Bus Chase (All Photos Included), Tromsø: Small Group | Northern Lights Chase + All-Inclusive, Tromso Northern Lights Minibus Chase Small Group Tour with Photos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tromso?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tromso?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour?
+
Included: Portrait and Digital pictures; Lunch; Driver/guide; Premium hot chocolate, tea and coffee; and Sightseeing tour. Not included: Extra drinks during lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 25 listed pickup locations in and around Tromso. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.
What languages is All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to All-Inclusive Arctic Fjords and Sommarøy Scenic Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
