Why Choose Arctic Whale Tours

See whales or come back for free! Arctic Whale Tours offers ethical safaris, local guides, and safe, comfortable boats — for unforgettable encounters with whales and Arctic wildlife. Below, you can read about all the reasons to choose us.

Whale Pass — See Whales or Come Back For Free

We proudly offer one of Norway’s most guest-friendly passes. If no whales are sighted during your trip, you’ll receive a complimentary rebooking for the next available tour — because every Arctic adventure deserves whales.

Ethical & Respectful Wildlife Encounters

We believe in putting nature first. Our tours follow strict ethical whale watching guidelines, using quiet, slow approaches and maintaining safe distances to protect the wellbeing of the animals and preserve the natural environment.

Safety First in Arctic Waters  

Your safety is always our top priority. Our experienced crew continuously monitors weather and sea conditions, and will only sail when it is safe. If weather forces us to cancel, we offer easy rebooking or other solutions — so you can enjoy your trip with confidence and peace of mind.
