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.

An amazing day exploring Arctic Landscapes! - We had an amazing day exploring the stunning Arctic Landscapes and the Fjords with Nico during the Arctic Landscapes Hike. We loved that the group was small and intimate which allows us to visit different and unique locations to take photos and soak in the beautiful scenery. Nico is an amazing photographer and takes great photos too! The warm soup and hot chocolate was also delicious! Thank you Nico for your company and for an awesome day! Highly recommend booking with Arctic Photo Guide for the Arctic Landscapes Hike!

Tours in the fjords - Beautiful experience. Even though we couldn't go snowshoeing due to rain, we visited the fjords on a tour of spectacular places.

A must do in Tromso - This hike tour was one of the best things we did in our Norway trip. Nico was an amazing guide who has an intensive knowledge about the area. He gives a very personalized tour which you might not find anywhere else. The amazing pictures he takes is an added bonus :)

Amazing Views, Amazing Guide. - Probably the best tour I went on during my stay here in Tromso. From stopping by to get geared up for the hike and giving the doggo some pets, to having lunch on top of the summit of the snowshoe hike, and all the fun slipping, falling, and learning how to manage using snowshoes for the first time ever. The photos came out amazing and Nico was just amazing as a guide. He also gave great tips for later that day to see the Northern Lights, which I also ended up seeing as well. Thank you Nico! Will deffinitly be back and take another tour with you. Sadly can only rate 5 stars. Can't go any higher.
