Welcome to Tromsø and The North of Norway
ArcticWild.no is a family run guide company. In the summer we run sea kayaking tours in the fjords and archipelagos around Tromsø and the island of Kvaløya. We also guide hiking tours up some of the more challenging peaks in the region.
When the midnight sun sets and the snow settles we run many of the same tours under the light of the aurora borealis, or the northern lights as many know them by.
We believe in personal and close to nature experiences, so we run a maksimum of 8 participants per tour. This gives us the flexibility to make sure our guides can provide you with a true arctic adventure.
On our tours we adjust to all skill levels, so if you have a request, just let us know.
If you are in Tromsø for the day, or seeking an overnight or multi day adventure, we will be happy to guide you.
Regards, Eivind at ArcticWild.no

- Visited last year while at Sommerøya for a long weekend. Since we didn't have much time we opted for a 3-4 hour trip, and although both of us have paddled a little before we were very rusty and thus happy to find a great guide....More

- My mother and I spent a day sea kayaking with Arctic wild in late September/Early October 2019, was unsure of how harsh the conditions would be around this time and although the waves became fairly rough I never felt unsafe or uneasy about the experience....More
