Wonderful trip

Published on Dec, 2024

This trip was the highlight of our time in Tromsø. The staff were so very friendly and really made this excursion one to remember. Thanks for a memorable day.

Ahoy mate! Hermes 2 is calling you!

Published on Oct, 2024

I love it! Totally no clue what to expect. Only saw the offering when I walked past the shop. The team, led by Trulst(sp.. Sorry!) was very customer oriented. They saw to our needs and I cld tell they have high level of safety precautions in place. The wildlife sighting was cool, the history and stories about Tromso(WW2, Hermes) were even better. Great activity!

Unmissable Tromso trip

Published on Oct, 2024

Outstanding trip guided by a team passionate in what they do. Helped by some stunning weather for October but a really great experience all round.

Amazing historic tour with Hermes II and crew - must try!!

Published on Oct, 2024

We took the History Fjord Cruise with Hermes II and we had a fantastic time! The tour took 2,5 hours and the weather was also in our favor, beautiful sunshine and clear sky! The crew of the ship was very-very friendly, we spotted some harbour seals and eagles on our way, and we could even go to the captain' cabin and try to wheel the ship!! The whole experience couldn't have been better, the crew was fantastic, they were very eager to show us everything and to let us know about the 107 year-old ship's history! On the way we had a nice cup of blackcurrant juice (or coffee/tea) and a hot fish pie! I would absolutely recommend this tour as it was heartwarming to hear the stories from the crew who live and die for their local environment and made sure everyone feels safe and satisfied with the tour!

Worth every krona

Published on Oct, 2024

The cruise was a fantastic combination of history, nature and just relaxing. Great crew! You really made us feel comfortable in that beautiful old ship.
