It is ten at night and there is still lots of daylight! We pick you up at Radisson Blu hotel, take you to our office, and give you navigation suits, life jackets, and mittens. Then we go onboard our RIB-boat and after only thirty minutes, you realize that you are far away from the city surrounded only by nature, mountains, fjords, and light, very special evening light only seen above the arctic circle!
In our approach to beautiful Hella, we will navigate along the Ry tidal current. This current attracts fish, and fish attract birds, so we will see and hear lots of nature while docking.
We will then walk five minutes to a small boat house where we will serve coffee/tea & muffins while enjoying beautiful views of fjords, mountains and birds. From here, we will observe the strength of the current we just navigated. All this from 11 to 12 at night!
Finally, we start our short hike back to the boat, and our navigation back to Tromso. Please note that this is NOT sea rafting.

Great time on the RIB boat until Hella island. Amazing details from the tour guide and very nice coffee muffin gathering on the island!

The experience was good. I felt like there could have been more to the tour. The views of the Midnight Sun were magnificient, but for the money, I felt I could be given more information.

The tour was wonderful! The views were spectacular and our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable. When I contacted him to switch my tour day, he was very responsive and accommodating!

The speedboat ride is a great way to get out quickly. As we also went to spot wildlife as well the speed meant that when we saw anything we could change course and get there quick. Very beneficial when tracking the Sea Eagle in the area. Guide was brilliant and a great sense of humour. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately, after a sunny day, the clouds came before departure. So no sunset. We did get the choice to get our money back, or get a trip around Tromsø. Everyone chose the last option. For me it was worth it. Amazing on this boat with speed and "playing" with the waves. Watching eagles and heron in "daylight" at night. The guide was really nice and knew a lot.

Very nice RIB ride into the fog. The guide was very fair to offer a full refund due to a foggy weather forecast. However all choose to participate in the tour. We saw as forecasted no midnight sun but had a good tour on very calm foggy waters.

Fantastic trip with a fantastic guide / boat driver. We were certainly lucky with the weather and got to enjoy the midnight sun at its best. Francisco who was our boat driver was very knowledgeable and very nice. The rib we used was of top quality. Snack out at sea with coffee and muffins. Fantastic to return to Tromsø bathing in the midnight sun. Recommended!

We had a 3 hours RIB boat tour to Musvær to catch the midnight sun and ... Woow. Francisco is chill & passionate about his adoptive land that he knows well. Despite the uncertain weather during the day and our last minute booking, Francisco agreed to take us onboard at night once the sky got clear enough. We highly recommend gold of Norway & Francisco.
