A must do - The tour was much cheaper than the ones being offered on the cruise ship I arrived in Honningsvåg on. The driver was informative and gave us lots of information on the way up. The stop at the Sami village was interesting too.

Amazing experience on all counts. - The incredible driver Fred who handled a health emergency with skill and compassion. This was followed by a very knowledgeable guide Benjamin assisted by Fred to make this a rewarding and interesting tour. Do not miss the artists studio.

Great trip to the North Cape - Fabulous trip to Nordkapp with Bernadette, our guide / driver, who was informative and entertaining.
We were very fortunate with the weather, and we had superb views from the North Cape - and so much better value than the ship's excursions.

North Cape - The bus driver & Helga’s commentary was very funny. Tour covered a lot of the island. Great scenery.

Fantastic way to spend a half day at port. - Outstanding! Family owned business. We arrived on a cruise ship and booked this tour privately. The tour met the ship at the pier and ran to time. They ran multiple trips on the day we were in port. There was a pre-recorded audio tour guide throughout the bus trip that was hilarious! Thankfully in English, though I believe other languages may also have been available. This provided consistency of information for all participants of the same tour across multiple buses and time slots. The weather cooperates beautifully. The scenery is simply stunning! The company is also affiliated with a local store in Honningsvag, and offers a discount for guests who book with them to view an awesome short film at the store on the Aurora Borealis.

Great and Challenging - The driver was excellent, informative, and engaging. The North Cape experience was great. Their 3 D movie and light show was superb. The only place you fell short was booking and follow. When I booked it was for 9 AM I got there and was not on the manifest. I paid for the tour again on the bus. At the return they found my original manifest on the 11,15 tour so they refunded my money.

Stunning North Caoe. - North Cape was particularly good. Only 5 min at Fishing Village and 5 min at empty Sami Village disappointing. Stunning scenery and very lucky with clear, sunny skies.

I had expected to see Sami, and did not. - Was advertised to include ‘Sami Families’ but we did not see any Sami. We saw many reindeer in the wild from the bus and also some up close at one stop we made. The recorded commentary was funny, entertaining and informative. The only difference from taking the local bus was the stop to see reindeer and the commentary. If you don’t care for that, then in my opinion, the local bus is the way to go.

Great disappointment - We traveled from US to this area to take this tour which visits the area of our maternal grandmother’s family homeland. To say that cancellation the day before our ship arrived is a disappointment is a huge understatement. This was our trip home so to speak. Don’t think I would count on an excursion by TripAdvisor as a reliable provider. I am so very sad.
