Tour Description:

Experience the wild beauty of Senja and Kvaløya on a full-day Arctic island adventure through some of Northern Norway's most scenic coastal landscapes.


Explore the Arctic wilderness of Senja and experience the beauty that the island is famous for. This scenic day tour takes you through the dramatic fjord and mountain landscapes of both Senja and Kvaløya, featuring some of the region's most incredible and famous photo spots.


Your adventure begins with pickup from Scandic The Dock in Tromsø. From there, we travel through the beautiful landscapes of Kvaløya before taking the scenic ferry across to Senja.

As we enter Senja, prepare to be amazed by its ever-changing scenery. Highlights include famous viewpoints such as Bergsbotn, Tungeneset, Ersfjord beach and other spectacular roadside locations offering postcard-worthy views of sharp mountain ridges meeting the sea.

We take our time at the best locations, allowing you to capture the landscapes at their finest.

Midway through the tour, we stop for a traditional Norwegian outdoor lunch.

Your guide will share insights into local nature, wildlife and Arctic life, giving you a deeper understanding of what makes Northern Norway so unique. After exploring Senja, we begin our journey back to Tromsø, travelling through the scenic landscapes and small coastal communities of Senja and Northern Norway.

Keep an eye out for wildlife throughout the journey. Encounters with sea eagles, reindeer, moose, otters and seabirds are common in this region.

We arrive back in Tromsø around 18:30, after a full day in Senja's dramatic scenery, hopefully with some lasting memories of Norway's raw and untouched beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are the ferry tickets included?

    Yes. All ferry crossings, tolls and road fees are included in the price. There is no additional cost to this tour.

  • What time will we return to Tromsø?

    The planned return time is an estimate. Traffic, weather, road conditions and ferry schedules can cause delays, so we recommend avoiding important restaurant reservations, flights or other time-sensitive plans immediately after the tour.

  • Are there toilet stops during the tour?

    Yes. Toilet facilities are available during selected stops, including the ferry crossing

  • How much time will we spend driving?

    Senja is a considerable distance from Tromsø, so several hours of the day are spent travelling. 


    The journey is part of the experience, with changing Arctic scenery, selected photo stops and a scenic ferry crossing there is still plenty of time to be spent outdoors!

  • Will we have enough daylight during the winter?

    Daylight is limited during the winter, particularly during the polar night. We plan the itinerary around the available light, therefore we might start the tour earlier during polar night.

  • Do you offer vegetarian, vegan or allergy-friendly food?

    Snacks and hot drinks are included; lunch and main meals are not. Tell us about allergies or dietary needs before booking so we can confirm what is available. Please bring the food you need for the full day.
