They bring visitors from all over the world to the most favorable locations to experience the northern lights during well-planned, guided tours through the beautiful Norwegian landscape. In addition to northern lights adventures, Best Arctic also offers a variety of other exciting activities, such as fjord tours, reindeer encounters, and sleigh rides.

Spa day on the water

Vulkana is a unique spa concept, to say the least. The boat, which is an old whaling ship from 1957, has been converted into a spa with a hammam, Japanese lounge, hot tub, and sauna with a fantastic view of the fjords. End with a refreshing dip in the Norwegian Sea if you’re feeling brave—or sip a refreshing cocktail and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Tromsø.

Culture in Tromsø

Tromsø is known for its rich cultural scene with several exciting museums to choose from. One of the most famous is Polaria, where visitors can learn about Arctic nature through interactive exhibitions. There is also an aquarium with seals and Arctic fish to discover. For those interested in music, Tromsø also offers several music events throughout the year, such as the electronic music festival Insomnia. The annual festival combines music, design, and new technology and involves the whole city.

Tromsø’s unique range of bars

Despite its size, Tromsø has a wide range of bars to explore (it is said to have the most bars per capita in Scandinavia). Among them, you’ll find unique concepts such as the Magic Ice Bar Tromsø, where you can enjoy your drinks surrounded by beautiful ice sculptures.

Another unique bar experience you’ll find in Tromsø is Raketten Bar & Pølse, a small kiosk in the center of town that serves pølse, beer, and wine from its window.

If premium cocktails are more your thing, Bardus is the perfect option. Here, you’ll find exciting drinks on the menu, such as the mythical Arctic Seaweed Cocktail.

Ride along the fjords

A unique way to experience the beautiful landscape of Tromsø is to book a ride with the Tromsø Lyngshest. The Norwegian horse breed, similar to the Icelandic horse, is part of Norway’s cultural heritage and is also suitable for adventurous families with children. You can visit the horse farm a few miles outside of Tromsø to meet the horses and ride along Norway’s beautiful fjords. It’s an enchanting experience in nature for young and old alike.

Fresh fish and seafood

Tromsø has a long and vital history of fishing, and its proximity to the Arctic Ocean means that the city has a rich supply of delicacies from the sea. At Fiskekompaniet, right next to the quay, you can taste fresh Arctic fish and other seafood. Another popular destination is the seafood restaurant Arctandria, where you’ll find several unique dishes on the menu, such as whale and fermented rakfisk. Be sure to try the classic fish cake while you’re here—made from fish, spices, and potatoes, it can be eaten with a side dish or as a snack to go.

Tromsø is one of the best places in the world to experience the Northern Lights. The beautiful, floating color spectacular that often fills the Arctic night sky in the winter months.

The Northern Lights have fascinated humans since times immemorial, and in the last few years, tourists from all round the world have traveled to Tromsø so experience them with their own eyes. Green, blue, red and yellow waves - dancing across the sky that ensure the darkness is anything but drab.

This spectacular natural phenomenon arises as a result of various intense physical processes in space – due to collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun entering the earth's atmosphere. The earth's magnetic fields then direct these solar particles towards the poles, and the charged particles collide with nitrogen and oxygen molecules. The result is the beautiful Northern Lights. The colors in the Northern Lights are determined by the altitude at which they are created. This can range from 80 to 500km above ground.

The area around the geomagnetic North Pole is called the Auroral Oval. As Tromsø is well positioned in relation to this, you often have a good chance of experiencing the Northern Lights here. To see the Northern Lights, the sky needs to be dark and clear. It's therefore best to aim for the months from October to March.

If there is a lot of solar activity, there will be plenty of Northern Lights activity, in which case you will have a good chance of viewing the light show from the city center. However, your chances of a more magnificent experience will significantly increase if you head away from built up areas. There the light pollution will be far less, and the Northern Lights will be that much clearer.

Telegraph Bay at the southwest tip of Tromsø is a good viewing area, within easy distance of the center (about 4km). Otherwise Prestvannet Lake at the highest point on Tromsøya is a good alternative. If you've got transport, Finnvikdalen and Kattfjordeidet are recommended. You might also catch sight of the lights from Fjellheisen cable car – with views over the whole of Tromsø.
