This is a two hours trip from 13:30-15:30 It goes around the beautiful isle of Tromsø. Due to the weather we might change the route to other wonderful places. This is mainly thought to enjoy the bright winter colors and scenery of our Arctic winter landscape.From about 21 November to 21 January, it is dark time here in the north. We also call it the blue light season. This trip is added to a time of day when the intense blue light comes out especially well.

We serve hot drinks and homemade cakes on this trip.
