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, ArcticWild.no
