About this activity
Explore Tromsø, the Arctic capital of Northern Norway, on a full-day trip from Malangen Arctic Experience. From MAE, the drive to Tromsø takes approximately 1 hour, depending on road and weather conditions.
The journey itself is part of the experience. Follow the scenic route from Malangen through fjords, mountains and coastal landscapes before arriving in Tromsø, a lively Arctic city known for its culture, history, restaurants and spectacular views.
Spend the day exploring some of Tromsø’s most famous sights. Visit the Arctic Cathedral, take the Fjellheisen cable car for panoramic views over the city, stop by the Polar Museum to learn about Arctic expeditions and polar history, or enjoy Polaria and the harbour area. The city centre is compact and easy to explore on foot, with cafés, shops and restaurants within walking distance.
This is a great day trip for guests who want to combine the quiet fjord setting of Malangen with a taste of city life in Tromsø. In summer, you can enjoy the long Arctic daylight and midnight sun atmosphere. In winter, Tromsø offers cosy cafés, museums and Arctic city life surrounded by snow-covered mountains.
