We had such a great time on Hermes II. This is an amazingly well preserved 1917 boat that does three different tours - a 1hr tour, a 2.5 hr your, and a 4.5hr fishing and sightseeing tour. Because of our available time, we opted for the 1 hr tour. The boat is very conveniently docked right in the center of town - very easy to finds and access. The crew is fabulous!!! They took the time to ensure we had an excellent cruise - and they are so friendly and expert. The boat is quite stable and in perfect condition - it was a real joy to go out and sightsee. Highly recommended!!!

Had a fun and fact filled morning with the crew on board Hermes II. I felt particularly special as I was the only person with them that morning so I got treated like royalty. Particularly impressed that they ran the tour for one person! Would thoroughly recommend

This was a wonderful introduction to Tromso and being able to see the city from the water. The sun came out and gave us a picturesque setting. Highly recommend if you want to learn about Tromso, the history, and have beautiful views! It was perfect.

An amazing experience! Tromsø and the neighbourhood are magnificent on their on, but from a bout the view is the best! Also the boat is supercool, Trols and Trodo, the hosts, are the absolute best: the talk, the stories, the way they move around the boat - just spectacular 😍

Very good experience with the trip on the Hermes II, a ship full of history. Thanks to the good work of Truls, who is a very didactic and fun guide, they make you have a great time and enjoy the surroundings of Tromso from another perspective. It depends on the time of year that you go, you can find different landscapes, I was in September and it was a nice sunny day, seeing animals and breathing fresh air. Thank you so much

We couldn't be more happy with the trip. Truls was excellent host, wonderful with the kids and informative and funny. We will certainly come back for a longer trip one day. Overnight trip would be a dream come true!!!

We booked for the 1 hour trip on a sunny day in February. We had the boat to ourselves so had a very dedicated tour from the guide who was clearly extremely knowledgeable about Tromso and the boat. It also included a hot drink and delicious homemade biscuits. If I was being picky, I would've liked some time during the trip on our own just to take in the views and take some pictures, and for the fact that it was rather expensive for what it was. However, we absolutely can't fault the friendliness and welcoming staff who made this one of our favourite activities whilst visiting Tromso.

Seeing Aurora was surreal, yes its given! But! Another gem that’s waiting to be discovered just in the heart of the city, in the harbor. Hermes! Its luxurious, elegant but a humble boat with lots of features inside, rich in history and experience! The tour was never boring, the whole tour was so cold coz its winter, but the warmth of hospitality and smile of the staffs especially Truls 🙌🏼 made us feel warm all throughout the tour! Truls was the jack of all trades the heart of the boat, telling stories, cracking jokes, making and serving us hot drinks, talking photos of us, Everything you can think of! The staffs at the office are very hospitable and friendly, as well as the boat crew! The view was superb during the boat tour! After the trip Truls gave us a souvenir . We will definitely come back! We already recommended HERMES to our friends!
