Plenty of companies offer whale-watching tours in Tromsø and Skjervøy, but it’s important to note that Norway has no official regulations regarding whale watching, only voluntary guidelines.
These guidelines encourage ethical behavior like maintaining distance from the whales and avoiding disturbing them. To help you make an informed decision, we’ve recommended companies with eco-certifications or a reputation for running responsible tours.
Here are our suggestions for tours starting in Tromsø:
