What makes this one different

Small RIB, substantial travel day

Travel by bus from Tromsø, then join a RIB with 4–12 passengers. The boat portion is about 2.5–3 hours.

The 12 hours includes transfers; it is not 12 hours of whale viewing.

What is included?

Return bus, guided RIB trip, flotation suits and listed protective equipment, sandwiches, hot drinks, biscuits and excursion photos.

Budget separately

Personal extras and any items not listed in the booked option.

The experience, in context

Early road transfer to Skjervøy, gear fitting, RIB excursion, refreshments and return transfer.

Read this as an outline, not a guaranteed sequence of stops. The confirmed departure and the operator’s decisions on the day determine the actual journey. Keep a buffer before another booking, especially when the trip depends on reaching wildlife.

Who should check before booking?

Minimum height 140 cm; maximum weight 120 kg. Not suitable during pregnancy or for listed back, mobility and medical conditions; consult the provider's full restrictions.

Use the exact activity ID and selected departure when asking a question. A different listing from the same operator can use a different boat or have different inclusions. If a detail is essential to your group, obtain confirmation rather than assuming that a broad description answers it.
