The ship is more than just a boat, this ship offers authentic Arctic cruises and stays in Norway from its base in Tromsø. Unlike the tourist boats we have a genuine restaurant with local food bar, and kitchen on board and make our own coffee and freshly baked bread.

As you visit Arctic Norway, step into the wheelhouse with The Captain to learn about polar navigation, hear stories of Arctic exploration, and discover our eco-innovation: kelp-based biofuel from healthy energy drink production by-products to reduce CO₂ emissions. During the journey, you might even spot some wildlife while enjoying the midnight sun or the magical glow of the Northern Lights or your king crab safari.
With room for 70 passengers and 28 beds for longer journeys, MS Tromsø is a good option for day or overnight stays, socializing and escaping the crowded tourist streams. This is the real Arctic story - where nature, adventure, and history come together.
