Final Morning in Tromsø
Sadly, this will be our final morning together. After breakfast most of our group will start making their way for the airport and the journey home.

If you've got the time off work and budget, this would be a great time to extend your trip elsewhere in Norway or Europe. My recommended route home includes a one night layover in Oslo.

Spend a night here and consider checking out their open air museum, a floating sauna cold plunge in the harbor or a visit to their world famous Christmas Markets (Nov-Dec)!

Day 1

Welcome to Tromsø!

The trip with Wes to Tromsø was amazing ! It was incredible to witness the Northern Lights in 3 days. The finale of the cable car ride to see another unbelievable northern lights was the cherry on top. All of the activities and the accommodation were well organized by Wes. He is friendly, personal and helpful. I highly recommend Travel with Wes for Tromsø tour. Thank you Wes!

I recently took a Northern Lights trip to Tromso, Norway with Wes/Travel with Wes, and it was truly one of the best trips I have ever experienced in my life. From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well organized, thoughtfully planned, and incredibly fun. Wes was fantastic in every way. he facilitated the group beautifully, creating a warm, inclusive, and relaxed atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable and connected. The intinerary was perfectly balanced with a variety of activities, and we were fortunate enough to see the Norther Lights multiple times, an unforgetable experience that felt magical. What really stood out was Wes's attention to detail, his passion for travel and his genuine care for the group. He handled logistics seamlessly while still allowing the trip to feel adventuous and spontaneous. I would hands down travel with Wes and his small groups again without hesitation. If you are considering one of his trips, I could not reccomend him more highly. This was an extredianary experience that I will cherish for forever.

My daughter and I just returned from the trip to Norway to see the Northern Lights-and WOW did we. I also enjoyed seeing the pod of orcas and the dogsled and reindeer rides. Wes was very upbeat, knowledgeable, and helpful getting me (an older adult) around to the different sites. Please check out his tours, you’ll be glad you did.

Spectacular Northern Lights! Dog sledding, feeding reindeer, watching orcas! This trip exceeded my expectations! Tromso was such a delightful city to explore! Wes organized amazing excursions and communicated clearly! Bucket list trip accomplished! Lady Aurora put on quite a show for us!

This was an absolutely amazing trip! We’ve never traveled with a tour guide before and have no regrets. The group size is ideal and we experienced, and could not have enjoyed more, everything posted in the “Arctic Itinerary.” Although it may look like a lot of activities, Wes has it scheduled with plenty of downtime for resting. We highly recommend: Travel With Wes!

Our trip to Norway was an experience we’ll always remember and cherish. Wes is an exceptional planner, coordinator and guide, and just a great guy! He provided and arranged just the right amount of fun, exciting and educational activities that we shared with a great group of people that was just the right size, 15 of us including Wes. We all got to know each other’s names and shared stories around the campfire… along with Thomas, who was also a great guide and photographer in chasing the northern lights. Wes also took exceptional photos on the whale watching boat and at other events which he shared with us. Feeding the reindeer, learning about the Sami people’s role in saving them from starvation due to icy conditions created by global warming… and the dogsledding were all great fun and educational activities. And the northern lights… just amazing! The colors are not usually as vibrant to the naked eye as they are in pictures, but we were so lucky to see them a few times where they just kind of exploded and even ‘danced’ for us, and even the locals were amazed. Just can’t say enough about Wes… he is simply the best. He became a friend and part of the group as well. Eternally grateful… thank you, Wes!

A wonderful soul, committed to give his people the adventure of their lives!! You feel like you’re part of a big family when you join his trips, and it makes everything so much more complete! I think of Wes and think of someone who can make dreams turn into reality in the most beautiful way possible :) thank you for everything and hope the whole world can have the privilege of joining your trips! ✨
