Views of Tromso
We had a bit of trouble finding the way to the cable car. It's not well signposted and through a residential area. There was only a short queue to go up. The views from the top were amazing. There's a coffee shop and toilets at the top too.

You really will have to want to go to use this - a rip off!
Very expensive at ~£60 a head for a return ride for 4 minutes of travel time a single way. Great views for sure. Cafe on the top rammed and very expensive and poor quality. Not enough seating but then there is no competition. Not good value for money in any shape or form but they have you over a barrel.

Great views. But wouldn’t recommend it
Very exxy for a cable car ride. View was fantastic but icy so it wasn’t safe to walk around without crampons. Can get great views walking around the city anyway so - not sure it’s worth the extreme price. Cafe is fairly basic. Be warned - they do not offer refunds for bad weather. Only rebooking credit within 90days. Strong winds shut it down for half the day on Christmas 2025. Seems likely it gets shutdown frequently with no refund options for tourists. That part feels like unethical business practice to me.

Expensive Transfer. 😞
Avoid booking this trip - the cost in my opinion is an absolute rip off. The organised trip used normal Tromso taxis, and the amount charged for a 10 minute taxi trip to the cable car (from central Tromso) is extortionate. To make matters worse, the guide did not accompany us, and the taxi to collect us did not arrive - over 30 mins late standing in the freezing cold. We had to chase the taxi by speaking to other local drivers. Please take my advice, and book an uber or the shuttle bus (two of which departed whilst we were waiting). The cable car and views from the top are amazing, and definetly worth doing. Just DONT use this transfer service. Not recommended under any circumstances.
Response from the operator: We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with this service. However, we would like to clarify that booking a vehicle and cable car ticket on your own is not a cheaper alternative. This package is designed to make the process easier by combining the transfer and cable car ticket into one convenient solution. Please note that having a guide accompany you throughout the trip is not included in this package. However, the guide who welcomes you provides valuable information to enhance your experience. We offer this package on multiple platforms because the majority of our guests are very pleased with the service it provides. We truly value your feedback and hope to serve you better in the future.

Why this scores 45
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tromso.
How much does Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $131 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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer 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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 17 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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer?
+
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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer 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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer?
+
Around 6 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 Tromso Cable Car Arctic Panorama Transfer 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.
