Our photo tour guide Bernd Nill will be at your side with help and advice on photographic matters - from individual assistance to detailed picture reviews.
Unique animal observations
The fjords of Northern Norway offer fantastic opportunities to observe and photograph whales at close range while fishing. You will follow the huge herring streams that have their feeding grounds here in winter. Orcas, humpback whales, sea eagles feast on this seemingly inexhaustible food source. You may even be able to observe "bubblenet feeding", where the whales collectively catch herring in "nets" made of air bubbles.
Respectful animal observation in small groups
There is a maximum of four to six guests per boat, so everyone has enough space. The experienced skippers tell about the behavior of the whales, their travels during the year and the special features of the groups that migrate here.
Fantastic light - long nights - magical northern lights
The unique twilight of the Nordic winter creates enchanting moods in the sky and offers fantastic photo opportunities. The sky changes from yellow-orange to bright pink-purple in good weather, while the clouds conjure up dramatic shape and color effects on overcast days. On clear nights, the northern lights often dance in the sky. You go in search of the mystical veils right outside your accommodation or even from exciting photo spots.
