5.00We loved the Pola Bear Walk Tour. We learned so much about these beautiful animals & so nice to see the various bears around town!. The information provided about the history of Tromsø, nature, & the animals environment, was invaluable to our understanding of this beautiful part of the world . Our guide Oda's storytelling was so interesting , we were fascinated by all we learnt on the tour. The Polar Museum & Polarium were a great bonus as part of this activity. I would highly recommend this tour to other travellers . The tour exceeded our expectations . Thanks so much to our Oda for sharing her knowledge with us.

5.00Gavin… thank you so much for today. What an absolutely excellent tour of Tromsø and the museum we visited. Gavin is an incredibly knowledgeable guide, clearly passionate about Tromsø and the Arctic as a whole. His friendly, relaxed manner quickly put everyone at ease, and before long this group of complete strangers were chatting away together while he shared a wealth of interesting facts, amusing stories, and also some sobering insights into the environmental damage affecting the region — which really gave us all food for thought. Being in such a stunning place while also understanding the challenges facing its wildlife and environment made the experience even more powerful, and Gavin’s passion really brought that message home. Honestly, this is the best walking tour I’ve ever been on. Gavin, when we return on our next trip, I’ll definitely be looking you up again. Many thanks for a brilliant day.
Tromsø in my heart

5.00Oda was an incredible tour guide and truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the very beginning, she created such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere that we immediately felt comfortable. She shared so many fascinating stories and personal anecdotes, the kind of information you wouldn’t easily find online or in guidebooks. It felt less like a typical tour and more like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend. The way she connected polar bears to the history and present-day life in Tromsø was especially impressive. She didn’t just present facts, she explained how everything ties together culturally and historically, which made the experience much more meaningful and memorable. Her passion for the region really shone through, and it was clear how much she loves what she does. She was also incredibly engaging and attentive, making sure everyone in the group felt included and had the chance to ask questions. On top of that, we discovered an amazing coincidence we had in common, which completely blew our minds and made the experience even more special and personal. Oda made us feel at home, even though it was our very first day in Tromsø. Starting our trip with her tour set the perfect tone for the rest of our stay. We left feeling inspired, informed, and even more excited to explore. She truly made our day, and we would recommend her tour to anyone visiting Tromsø without hesitation.

5.00Gavin was a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Made the whole tour very interesting and gave us a great insight into the role of polar bears and impact of environmental change and humans on the bears and other mammals and fish in the arctic area around Norway including Svalbard. The whole tour has left a lasting impression. Highly recommended.
