Whale Safari in Tromsø with MS Gabriele
By Cruise service


Join Cruise Service in Tromsø for an unforgettable whale safari, where you can witness humpback whales, which can grow up to 16 meters long, along with killer whales, porpoises, and Arctic birds. The adventure begins at 9:00 at Tromsø Kai 1, where participants will board MS Gabriele, a spacious and stable boat designed for a perfect whale-watching experience, including accommodations for disabled guests.
Once aboard, you'll embark on a journey through the stunning fjord landscape, guided by experts who know the best spots to find whales. As you reach these areas, you'll have the chance to see majestic humpback whales leaping from the water, view killer whales, and spot various Arctic wildlife. You can enjoy these sights from the panoramic windows of the lounge or step out on the deck for a closer look.
MS Gabriele also offers a kiosk with beverages and snacks for purchase. While whale sightings are not guaranteed, the guides will do their utmost to ensure you have a memorable experience. If you don’t see humpback whales, you’re invited to join another whale-watching trip free of charge.
