This was such an amazing and unique experience I doubt you could get anywhere else! Our guides made us feel very welcome and safe throughout the entire experience and made sure we were warm and comfortable enough whilst floating. The floating itself was also relaxing and seeing the northern lights was a big bonus. Overall, definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Tromsø :)

One of the best activities someone can do while in Tromso. Ingvar and the staff were superb, in my opinion the best, friendliest, consistent and flexible of all the guides we had. The overall feeling is that it is more than a 5 star treatment we had. I would do it again, but this time the night one as the landscape is also majestic and I am sure with northern lights it would be even more beautiful!!!

Amazing!! Such a unique experience and had a lot of fun! Not just the floating part but walking on the ice and snow! The hosts were sooo nice and the cinnamon buns after the cold were a perfect touch! Wonderful time!
