Why Visit Tromso
Norway stretches far beyond the familiar southern cities, and in the far north Tromsø has earned its reputation as Europe’s Arctic capital. Increasingly accessible by direct flights from several European cities, Tromsø works well as a destination in its own right rather than just a launch point for excursions.
The city combines everyday life with an unmistakably Arctic setting, from the striking Arctic Cathedral to museums, cosy restaurants, and the Fjellheisen Cable Car, which offers wide views over the surrounding islands and mountains.
Tromsø is best known as one of Europe’s top places to see the Northern Lights, but winter travel here offers much more than that, including whale-watching, dog sledding, and opportunities to learn about Sámi culture. It’s a place where dramatic landscapes and everyday life sit comfortably side by side.
