Kvaløya, often referred to as "Whale Island," is a large island located in the Tromsø region of northern Norway. It is known for its stunning natural beauty and is a popular destination for both residents and tourists. In addition to Kvaløya's charming fishing villages, it is also renowned for the diverse species of wildlife that call this region home, including reindeer, moose, seabirds, and whales.

Your guided tour to Kvaløya begins in Tromsø, where you and your group will be picked up in a car by your experienced guide at the meeting point. You'll be driven to Kvaløya Island, taking in the magnificent scenery of coastal roads, snow-capped mountains, fjords, and beautiful beaches. Don't forget your camera, as wildlife sightings in this region are quite common. If you're lucky, you may even spot humpback whales or orcas, as they migrate through the fjords of this region.

Your first stop will be at the quaint Bryggejentene café and shop, where you can indulge in a delicious cup of coffee or tea in the historic building. Then, you'll head to the picturesque fishing village of Sommarøy, located on the western coast of Kvaløya. Its dramatic cliffs house birds such as puffins, guillemots, and cormorants. Sea eagles are also frequent in this area.

The excursion continues with a stop at the Sommarøy Arctic Hotel, where you will be treated to a delicious lunch and sample local Arctic cuisine. Throughout the tour, your guide will share insights into the local culture and heritage of this region.
