Beautiful snowshoeing! - Today I had the pleasure of taking a snowshoe hike in a really great place, accompanied by a guide (Nicola) competent and helpful. The snowy landscape was simply magical and the silence that surrounded us today, is now something rare! Nicola has been able to convey his passion for nature and made us discover interesting details about the area. The delicious lunch, with a breathtaking view, gave us the right energy to continue the adventure! A truly unique and different experience that I recommend to everyone!

Awesome hiking in the fjords - We had a great experience! For our first hiking trip in Tromsø, Nicola was the perfect guide. He took us to the beautiful island of Kvaløya, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. The weather was wonderful, with clear skies and warm temperatures, which made the experience even more enjoyable. He also took some amazing pictures of us! I highly recommend this tour for all kinds of travelers. It’s a fantastic way to explore the Arctic nature and enjoy an unforgettable day outdoors.

The best 😁 - This is the second time Nicola has been called upon , last year for the Northern Lights and this year for a snowshoe hike . The big advantage is that we are in a small group of 6 people max!! If like me you can’t bear to be in a big group of tourists , then this option is the best. Also Nicola is very nice , he makes crazy pictures that you will then receive by email . We receive food , hot chocolate cakes ... frankly it is 5 stars , I highly recommend 😁

Amazing snow rockets tour with Nico from Arctic Photo Guide - The trip exceeded our expectations. In fact, it didn't feel like an organized tour with an agency, but more like a trip with a family friend Nico. Everything was perfectly organized and all of that was enhanced by the absolutely amazing weather, views and of course the choice of location. We will probably become regular guests.

Magical landscape tour - The artcic landscape tour was truly magical. We saw a true winter wonderland through amazing snow-filled landscapes, which we wouldn’t be able to see if it wasn’t for this tour. We also got high resolution photos for gatekeeping. Highly recommended.

A special hike with Nico - We had a wonderful hike with Nico! Since he only does small group tours he was perfect for us. We would choose him over any other tour guides. Of course, small group tours are higher in costs, but it’s worth every penny. You can enjoy nature in your own time and are not rushed in any way. He is into the small details and would stop in the middle of the road to let us enjoy a beautiful view or let us see the reindeers up close when they crossed our way. He is such a nice guy and we all got along so well. We can only recommend his tours when you are in Tromsø if you look for something special!

Great tour! - Great day tour! Nico found a beautiful hike for us and was a great guide. The arctic landscape in winter is beautiful and it was really nice not having to worry about driving or finding a good hiking spot. He took care of everything. We enjoyed our time with him and he provided pictures for us after the tour.

Amazing landscapes! - I had an "arctic landscape hiking" experience with Nicola (aka Arctic Photo Guide) on the 1st of April. It was an amazing experience! We went to Sommaroy, we walked on the rocks and we had the possibility to see some truly amazing landscapes. Nicola is really passionate about his job and this makes him a very good guide. Truly recommended.
