Snorkelling with Orcas

Day 1: Tromso

Arrive at the Norwegian city's airport and transfer to the harbour to board your vessel in the afternoon.

Days 2 to 6: At sea

For five full days, you'll follow the schools of herring and pods of orcas and humpbacks in the protected surroundings of the beautiful Norwegian fjords. Two expert guides will accompany you on your whale watching adventures. Be prepared for cold but rewarding days out at sea with spectacular sightings of a unique display of Mother Nature.

The combination of these natural phenomena, the beautiful ever-changing scenery of the Norwegian fjords and the amazing Northern Lights, makes this trip an exclusive experience of nature.

Have your cameras charged, and whenever possible, be ready to slip into the cold water for a polar adventure. For snorkellers, a waterproof D9 snorkel, dry suit and other equipment are provided.

If you choose not to snorkel, you can enjoy the view from the spacious deck on board your ship or join the zodiac excursions for up-close whale watching and excellent photography opportunities!

During the darker hours, you will immerse yourself in the warm and cosy comfort of the expedition yacht while the expert guides entertain you with presentations and educational information on wildlife and cinematography and films. Excellent food is served with a fine selection of wines and beers.

Day 7: Disembarkation

You will disembark in the morning, after breakfast and say farewell to your crew.

NOTE: The onboard team are always ready to alter plans to take advantage of light, weather, wildlife sightings and other one-of-a-kind opportunities, which can vary unpredictably from day to day. We can't guarantee that all activities and shore landings will take place, or that they will include all the events outlined in advance. Embracing the unexpected is part of the legacy – and excitement – of expedition-style travel, and a measure of flexibility is something everyone must bring along on the voyage.
