Description
Explore the breathtaking island of Senja on a private guided tour. Visit iconic viewpoints and coastal villages, enjoy scenic walks, and learn about the unique culture of the region.
Your journey begins in Tromsø where you’re picked up early in the morning to make the most of the daylight. Travelling in a premium Mercedes van with space for up to six guests, your local guide — born and raised on Senja — takes you off the beaten path to explore the island’s most breathtaking landscapes and authentic fishing villages.
Our first destination is Fjordgård, the picturesque village beneath the iconic mountain Segla. Here, you’ll enjoy incredible views of the fjord and mountains before we continue to Mefjordbotn and Mefjordvær, two charming coastal communities nestled along the dramatic Mefjorden.
We’ll stop to admire the vast ocean horizon before heading toward the golden sands of Ersfjordstranda and the striking coastal cliffs of Tungeneset, where you can walk the wooden boardwalk and take in the spectacular sight of the Okshornan peaks rising from the sea.
The journey continues through Steinfjord, with its turquoise water and white beach, before we reach Skaland and the serene bay of Bøvær — home to the artistic landmark Kråkeslottet and the tranquil Bøvær Beach. Finally, we stop at the panoramic Bergsbotn Viewing Point, overlooking the stunning Bergsfjorden, and pass Hamn i Senja and Gryllefjord before returning to your chosen drop-off location.
As daylight fades, the adventure isn’t over — we’ll keep an eye on the Arctic sky for a chance to witness the Northern Lights dancing above the fjords and mountains.
Along the way, you’ll enjoy short scenic walks, photo stops, and warm drinks while learning about Arctic life, nature, and the vibrant coastal culture of Senja.
This is an authentic, personal, and flexible experience designed for travellers who want to discover the real Senja — wild, beautiful, and full of stories.
