Everything worked out wonderfully. The welcome on site, the briefing, the guides. Everything perfect. Nice and competent. We saw a lot of white-tailed eagles and the guide knew the places where they can be found very well. He could also tell a lot about the fjord and the stories of the houses you can see. Incredibly beautiful tour. Especially with sunshine and 29 degrees :-). Just to be recommended. Many thanks say Nicole and Frank

It was a very nice boat tour in the Trollfjord, which can only be reached by boat. We saw a lot of white-tailed eagles, also up close. The guide was great, he gave us a lot of interesting information about the sea eagles and the area. We could also ask questions at any time, which he was happy to answer. This tour comes highly recommended.
