Why take this tour?
The humpback and orca migrate to Northern Norway, along the coast of Tromsø to feed on the Atlantic herring throughout the dark winter months (mid-October until end of January). During these months, our catamaran boat departs from Tromsø and takes our safari group in the direction most probable for whale sightings. The journey provides scenic views as we cruise between islands and fjords with amazing mountain backdrops. Depending on weather conditions and whale location, our journey can take up to three hours to reach the sighting area. Once we have spotted the whales, we spend as much time as possible in the sighting area. We drift along with the whales during this time, and we gently follow their path with awareness of our presence in their natural environment. The duration of the tour can be up to 8 hours.
