  • Advertisement by Brim Explorer - What is Whale Watching like in Tromsø, Norway? In November 2021 we were invited by Brim Explorer to join them in Tromsø, Norway to go Whale Watching. At this time of the year there is a good chance to see Orca and Humpback Whales in this part of Norway. In this video we take you with us onboard one of the Brim Explorer hybrid-electric boats and show you what our full day Whale Watching Tour was like as we sailed from Tromsø to the herring-rich fjords of the Norwegian Arctic, the feeding grounds of the Humpback Whales and Orcas!

    Brim Explorer writes, "Our fjord cruise in Tromsø will show you some of the highlights that the area has to offer. Spot wildlife both above and below water. Explore a fjord with surprising remnant from the war and step ashore at an old fishing facility to learn about the industry that ids the lifeline of many Norwegian coastal towns and has formed the culture of Northern Norway.

      Thank you for inviting us and for having us onboard! We enjoyed every single minute of the day and from the experience we had with you can easily and very confidently recommend the Brim Explorer Silent Whale Watching Tour to fellow travelers. We believe this video will open up many travelers eyes as to what Norway and Tromsø have to offer! The quiz was a nice touch, but we did not take part as we were in and out of the cabin filming our arrival back in Tromsø ;-) We hope that we will get the chance to sail with you again in the near future! Thanks for a wonderful day! We wish you all a Very Happy and Safe New Year 2022! - Venlig hilsener fra København - Maxi og Maro :-D

      The experience was absolutely incredible, we had a spectacular day and would do this trip again in a Heartbeat! Even if we had not seen the whales the trip would have been worth it just for those awe inspiring landscapes! As one of our Norwegian Instagram followers put it, much of "The Norsk Mythology" descends from the Norwegian landscape. We were sponsored by Brim Explorer to make this video but had we paid the trip ourselves we would have been just as happy with the experience! This was our second visit to beautiful Tromsø and we can highly recommend a long weekend there to fellow travelers, both our trips have been for Long Weekends! We are both very happy to hear that you enjoy our content, your words are VERY KIND and VERY MOTIVATING! Thank you both for the support you have given us again in this past year!! We wish you and your family a Very Happy and Safe New Year 2022... hopefully a year where one does not have to cancel trips, right Kieron? Kind Greetings from Maxi and Maro :-D

    Lt surely must be an experience and views long to remember. I had been a week or two ago in the Hermanus-area (southern point of Africa) which is known for whale-watching, but nothing doing. I assume they migrate as the weather changes.

      It was an incredible experience Dirk! If we get the chance to do it again we would do it in a heart beat!! Our family used to have a summer house in Pearly Beach, close to Gaansbai so I (Maxi) know Hermanus and the whale spotting place there too. My parents have been there and seen whales but not me! As far as I have heard (been told) there is a man that stands and blows a horn when the whales are sited! The whales do migrate and are in Tromsø from November to January before moving on.
