Svolvaer experiences a must
This cruise was amazing, the captain and the crew went out of their way to make us feel relaxed and comfortable to enjoy our time with them. The islands we sailed around were spectacular and the information the were given was excellent. An amazing part of the world and definitely worth a visit at least once in your life.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We are so happy that you felt relaxed and comfortable and enjoyed the company of our crew!

The Most Incredible Midnight Sun Boat Tour!!
This trip was such a special experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone. Don’t hesitate, just book it—it was worth every penny. When we travel, I always look for unique experiences (things that aren’t super touristy). This exceeded our expectations by far. So much so that we’re already booking a second tour with them tonight! The hosts, Kennet and Sachy were incredible and their boat is so charming. They were very gracious and accommodating and offered a lovely selection of hot drinks. They even stopped the boat to let us jump off for an arctic swim! The water is SO clear and beautiful (and cold, haha). It was very refreshing and life-giving. I loved watching my husband climbing up the ladder to jump off into the sea! Afterwards, we were able to warm up and shower. They had towels and a changing room below the deck. They also have a hot tub option, which is really cool! I will remember this experience forever and am already trying to plan a winter trip to Tromso to see the northern lights and orcas. After doing a lot of hard hiking in Norway this past week, this was just what we needed. The scenery truly takes your breath away.
Response from the operator: Hi Rachel, we are so grateful that you joined two of our tours and took the time to share your wonderful experience! We hope to see you again soon!

Amazing sail
You know a good soul when you meet one. Kennet and Sachi were very kind and fun to sail with. The trip was amazing and highly recommended
Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure to have you onboard and we are glad your drone was not lost!

Highly recommended
Kennet and Sachi were amazing hosts with a beautiful sailing ship and great knowledge of both sailing and the Svolvaer area. They were equipped with blankets and hot beverage as we had a chilly evening. Stopped for some bird spotting and a quick dip in the sea! Highly recommend this relaxing trip or a multi-day trip with them! Thank you for a great evening!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for recommending our tours and we are happy to hear you had a great experience!

Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub cost?
+
Prices start at $324 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 Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub?
+
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 Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub?
+
Around 5 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub 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 Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub?
+
Included: Tea and coffee; Dinner; and On-board restrooms. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub?
+

What languages is Tromsø Midnight Sun Yacht Cruise with a meal and optional Hot Tub offered in?
+
It is offered in Norwegian, Japanese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
