What you'll do

Welcome aboard! Upon arrival at your port, our Shore2Shore guide will warmly welcome you, identified with the corresponding sign.

Today we will explore Tromsø, a fascinating Norwegian city located on the island of Tromsøya, 350 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. Known as one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights, Tromsø is also famous for its rich offerings of art, history, gastronomy, lively nightlife, and vast forests.

We will begin with a panoramic tour of the city, where you will enjoy stunning views of the snowy landscape. Our first stop will be the iconic Arctic Cathedral, also known as the Tromsdalen Church, built in 1965. Although it is not a cathedral in ecclesiastical terms, its popularity and architecture have made it known by this name. This concrete and steel church, reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House, is one of Tromsø’s most visited landmarks, admired for its beauty and the peace it conveys.

Next, we will head to the fascinating Polaria Center, where you can enjoy a unique polar experience. Here, you can watch an interesting presentation about life in the Arctic, explore its interactive exhibits, or admire polar marine life in its aquariums.

Finally, we will return to the port for boarding, concluding this incredible excursion.

We hope you have enjoyed your visit to Tromsø and that you take unforgettable memories of the Arctic with you!
