Was fun!! - Was an amazing experience ! My partner and I enjoyed learning how to ice fish. Photos were taken then sent to us after the experience. We were also taken back to her house to cook up the fish that was caught and eat it.

I would book again - Actually we did not take part in the event because my son got a fever. But based on the communication with Karin I can highly recommend Skadi Adventures, because I was offered two more occasions when we could join the fishing, and I could decide if we can join or not till the last moment before the trip. I am very grateful for the kind words and offers from Katrin, which was nothing guaranteed by the offer, just a very understanding, kind and generous approach.

Everything is planned so that the fishing goes well. Crampons, stools, fishing equipment and a very good warm meal. - Excellent day. Everything was perfect. Our guide Oscar (and Karin) took great care of us, very attentive and efficient, both on the ice cream and in the fish kitchen. I 100% recommend this activity.

A great experience not to be missed! - Ice fishing with Karin was one of the best experiences of our trip to Tromsø! We were a small group of 8 people and we caught more than 25 fish in total: it was great!! Karin is an adorable, available, funny person. She took us to her house, prepared the fish and barbecued it in her "barbecue room". The meal was very generous and we even had the right to some grilled marshmallows! We all left with a fish to cook at home.

A guide, Karin, exceptional in availability, openness, kindness. thank you to her for these magical moments, whether on the ice or around the brazier at her home to taste the fillets of caught cod in foil. Thank you Karin and Skadi! gabrielle

Excellent ICE FISHING experience - It’s my first time in Tromsø, and I wanted to experience ice fishing. The weather unexpectedly cooperated, and we started by drilling a hole and learning how to bait the hook. Every experience was a first for me, and I didn’t expect to catch anything. Suddenly, there was a response on the line, and I caught a fish! I thought that would be the end, but then we were invited to a cozy cabin to grill the fish and enjoy a meal with locals, accompanied by delicious hot drinks. It was a wonderful day filled with unforgettable experiences! Highly recommended for first-time visitors.

Go go go!! - Brought my mom and friends— all of us had fun and I recommend this to everyone. Don’t forget your toe warmers! Coolest experience being in the hut and having fresh fish after. Literally love the woman who runs this and we talk about what a cool experience this is was over a year later.
