A Must Do in April Tromsø! - Fishing with boat is fantastic experience! Tromsø is such a hot destination these days, now that in April there seems to be less people visiting, more quietness in town. So this is a must do all seasons. The day I joined the weather was particularly nice. Calm, just some light breeze, light waves adding some fun for the fishing experience. After fishing, our guide Pepe made super nice creamy fish soup, it was so yummy that we asked for extra. Super good experience, I recommend to join.

Fantastic fjord fishing with great hosts 🎣 - After missing out on ice fishing due to the mild weather, we booked this trip last minute—and it ended up being one of the highlights of our visit. The boat can take up to 12 guests, but there were only five of us on this trip, which meant we each had our own rod. Normally there are six rods shared between 12 people, so having a rod each really maximised our fishing time and made the experience even better. Skipper Pepe and Jeremiah were excellent hosts—friendly, knowledgeable and very attentive throughout the trip. They moved us between three different fishing spots to give us the best chance of catching something, and everyone on board managed to land a good-sized cod. The best part was that the fresh catch was then prepared as soup for us to enjoy, which was absolutely delicious. A fantastic way to spend a calm afternoon on the fjords. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a memorable and authentic local experience.

Incredible experience fishing in Tromsø - Unique experience to do if you come to Tromso, where you can enjoy incredible views while fishing. Exquisite treatment by the guide Alvaro, makes everything very enjoyable and fun. Also during the stay we cook a very good fish soup, great to get a little warm. I definitely recommend it.

Great experience - Friendly and experienced staffs. They went out of the way to find spots with a lot of activities so that we get to fish. The soup was delicious. The person who taught us how to fish was Henry, he was patient and gave clear instructions while teaching how to fish. The captain was an Argentinian, I forgot his name, but he was a responsible captain who tried switching a few locations to make sure we get to fish. I'll definitely recommend this to my friends.

Near HarborFishing - Tourist head boat fishing. Not what I was expecting. Fished a few km from the harbor dock. Guide was great. Fish soup excellent but not much fish caught
