What an amazing experience
We had an amazing experience exploring the beautiful fjords, and a big part of that was thanks to Captain Luca. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire tour both enjoyable and informative. Captain Luca did a fantastic job guiding us through the stunning fjord landscapes, what an experience. He also gave us some excellent tips about the Northern Lights, including the best conditions for viewing them and how to make the most of the experience. His professionalism, enthusiasm, and local knowledge made the trip truly memorable. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area, and we're especially grateful to Captain Luca for helping make our adventure so special. Thank you, Luca

Our captain was very...
Our captain was very friendly and knowledgeable. The boat was very comfortable for the 2 of us but would have been crowed with more people. It was a bit misleading to say you went to the fjords. We boated around a large circle outside the harbor. The captain was very accommodating and we were able to fish. My husband and I each caught a cod. Mine was small enough that the captain threw it back into the ocean to live another day! The fish chowder was very tasty and filling. I was expecting to be outside on the deck more, but it was cold and there was no seating on the deck. That left us w being inside the cabin. It was still beautiful, just not as we expected. We booked the boat ride in order to have an outside adventure. We are from a warm climate (Hawaii) and not accustomed to the colder weather so our expectations might not have been realistic! All in all, it was a nice way to spend the afternoon (3 hours) but it seemed pricey for what we got.
Response from the operator: hank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re very glad to hear that you enjoyed the hospitality and knowledge of our captain, as well as the fishing experience — congratulations on catching cod! And we’re happy the fish chowder was a highlight of the trip. At the same time, we completely understand your comments regarding expectations about the fjords and spending time outside on deck. Weather conditions in Northern Norway can change quickly, and temperatures on the water are often colder than many visitors expect, especially for guests arriving from warmer climates like Hawaii. Our captain will always prioritize guest comfort and safety, which sometimes means spending more time inside the heated cabin when it is cold outside. Regarding the fjords, our route takes place in the fjord system surrounding Tromsø, but depending on weather, sea conditions, and fishing opportunities, the captain may adjust the route slightly to provide the best overall experience. Your feedback about outdoor seating is very valuable, and we will certainly take it into consideration as we continuously work to improve our guest experience. We’re very pleased to hear that overall you still had a beautiful afternoon on the water and that the fishing and scenery made the trip memorable. Thank you again for visiting us in Tromsø, and we hope that one day we may welcome you back to the Arctic for another adventure.

Private Fishing & Northern Lights with Local
The whole experience was great. Per is a local, knows the areas. He has top gear in the yatch so you can fish at night. While we were watching his amazing homemade fish soup, we saw the northern lights. What a memorable night. Seeing the lights from the water is a better experience for the kids than chasing by car for 5 hours.
Response from the operator: Super Thanks for feedback Best Regarding Kurt Arild Larsen And Per Ståle Larsen

Fantastic adventure with the best captain
Wonderful experience. Amazing crew, perfect boat and delicious fish soup served. We went for a whale watching adventure and the captain found the best spots to observe lots of Orcas around the fjord. This was one of out best trips ever. Totally worth it and recommended.

Nice little cruise. Suprising great fishing!
Took this cruise with my wife and 10 month old daughter. Was a laid back cruise on a nice day with a skipper who provided interesting information about the area and history. Had an opportunity to fish while he cooked a delicious lunch and I caught 14 cod in less than 30 minutes by myself! Within a few seconds of dropping the lure I already had a catch each time. So easy I felt that I was somehow cheating or something....
Response from the operator: Dear Super thanks for cruising with us, It was a lovely day and nice to get to know both of you, and the little one, Thanks again, Best Kurt arild

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen cost?
+
Prices start at $247 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 Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 20 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 Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen?
+
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 Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen?
+
Around 7 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Fjordcruise - Luxury Yacht Arctic Queen 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.

+
