Great activity, we saw a lot of eagles and quite close! The walk also allowed us to see magnificent landscapes. As indicated on the offer it is not recommended for people with back problems and we quickly understand why! On the day of the activity there were small waves (about 1 meter) but with the speed of the boat it creates big shocks when you fall into the trough of the wave creating a momentary pain in the back. However the guide specified that if necessary we should not hesitate to inform him of any possible discomfort. Conclusion great activity with a great guide 😊 thank you very much!

It was incredible! We had the sunrise, cold but beautiful weather and the loan of the wetsuit allows us to stay warm. The guide was great: funny, passionate, full of little anecdotes. We see the bald eagles very very close, they even pass over our heads. We were even lucky enough to see a small whale: a porpoise!! It was really incredible!

It was very fun! We are up really close with the sea eagles. The tour with the fjords are also breathtaking. Even jumping on the open ocean was super fun and exciting. Highly recommended!

Trollfjord is truly an incredible place. We had the opportunity to see the eagles very close up and all the time we needed to admire them at their best. The top guide!!!

Everything was perfect! Above my expectations! An exceptional adventure!
