Join this whale safari tour with MS Gabriele, a vessel with comfortable seats and a lot of space on deck. The tour starts at 09:00 in the morning and due to the high speed of the vessel, the time to reach the whale area, Skjervøy, only takes about 2 hours. Once you have reached Skjervøy, the search begins for the whales and orcas. You will stay with the whales for about 1-1.5 hours with the chance to see humpback whales, orcas, and fin whales.

A guide will always be close by to provide you with necessary information and guide you through the day. Included on this tour is coffee, tea, Wi-fi, a limited selection of thermal suits and binoculars. Refreshments such as mineral water, beer, and wine, as well as snacks and something light to eat is possible to buy in the kiosk.

This tour is also disabled friendly with larger toilet and two window seats for wheelchair users. The tour has a duration of 6 hours, so you will be back in Tromsø at 15:00.

Amazing cruise even though the weather was not great the tour operator did everything to help make the trip fun. Saw various birds and even managed to catch a fish. Food was also great and plentiful, even catered for food allergies.

It was a really really good experience, very well organized and father and son were a really good crew. We had done to the wale safari too which was also a good trip, Thomas is a really nice and friendly guy. We can only say we will do it again if we stay in tromsø.

Amazing trip. The guides were fun, friendly and helpful. They shared stories about them and interesting information about the area. The captain was great at getting close to the whales, we got there before everyone else each time.
