Very attentive tour company; great service! - Ivar was very communicative and helpful when we booked a tour to go snowshoeing. He ensured the tour was suitable for our group’s needs and abilities and took us to some lovely places in the Salten region, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm for the outdoors. In addition to the snowshoeing, we also managed to see some elks, eagles, reindeer and roe deer in the wild which was an unexpected bonus!

Excellent customer service and tour - Ivar knows Nordland/Bodø's surroundings incredibly well and is a very knowledgeable and passionate guide. I could feel that he is committed to creating the best possible experience for his clients. Even though I was the only one booked for the day, he still agreed to go ahead with the tour, which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, there was not much snow by the time I arrived, so Ivar offered me the possibility to either cancel or to go for an alternative hike. I took him up on the hike and it turned out to be a beautiful trip to a magical forest and peninsula. Ivar also stopped at several interesting spots along the way to the hike.

We were so fortunate to... - We were so fortunate to have Ivar as our guide! He was very friendly and accommodating, happy to tailor the day to our preferences. He also gave us tips for seeing the northern lights, and we bonded over photography. We’d happily take another tour with him.

Excellent - A great tour with a fantastic tour guide (Ivar). Snowhoeing at my own pace was lovely, moderate level. Beautiful nature, worths the visit. Ivar was very kind and patient to answer all my questions. He also recommended other things to do/ see in Bodo and Nordland, much appreciated! Communication and booking itself went fast. Highly recommended!

Magical snowshoe hike - An unforgettable experience! I definitely recommend this. Our guide, Marianne, took us for a hike to the most breathtaking valley. Winter wonderland! On our way home, Marianne took a little detour to one of the most beautiful places around Bodø and recommended it for watching the Aurora. Also, thanks to much helpful advice from Ivar, we were able to catch the Aurora there later that night. Thank you so much, Marianne and Ivar!

Fun and gorgeous day with Tinna! - What a wonderful day we had with Tinna our guide! We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day to see the sparkling gorgeous landscape. The hike was exhilarating and Tinna did a great job of gauging the capabilities of the group and challenging us a bit with a route variation which we all really enjoyed. It was a great day and money well spent!

great experience - Ivar's enthusiasm for the outdoors is infectious. You know by his experience and professionalism that you are in safe hands. We met him at the Tourist Information in Bodo and he drove us into the hills where he helped us put on our snowshoes and guided us into the beautiful snowy landscape, We would not have found this walk without a guise. We saw moose tracks but never saw the beast. Ivar takes you at your your pace and does not push you past your capabilities. Excellent experience. We would do it again and recommend it to others.

Great experience and perfect service - Ivar organised a wonderful snowshoeing trip for us. He answered very fast and assisted us, while the cruise ship arrived one day early as we planned. It was no problem for him to change the trip. For us it was a great experience! We're very thankful!
