Whale Watching in fjords of Arctic Norway

Thanks to an extraordinary phenomenon of nature, you can take a trip to witness close up some of the world's most magnificent creatures, orcas, or killer whales, in their natural environment - and still be at home for bedtime.

After an early start, we fly to the fjords in the far north of Norway, where we board a large guide boat, used for tracking and monitoring the orca. With a little luck we see the fins of the killer whales appear on the surface as they hunt the herring. This is a five to six hour safari. There is a guide and scientist on board answering your questions and a light lunch will be served. As darkness falls, we return to the small fishing village of Lodingen, where there will be a presentation on the days sightings and time to explore this charming village before heading to the airport.
