    Wonderful video, very informative. I so appreciate that your focus was on Tromsø and not on your face. Look forward to viewing more of your videos.

      Thanks! I'm not overly confident in front of the camera and surely people want to see the beauty of the city to get a feel for whether they want to go to places or not. 😊

    Thanks for sharing especially for the information that we can see aurora from the Fjellheisen if the sky is clear.

      @a_weekend_with_us  6 месяцев назад

      Thanks! Yes, I was surprised how well I could see the aurora from up there. People also say Kongeparken in the city centre is a good spot, or Telegrafbukta (although I didn't try either of those as I had the ticket for the cable car). 👍

      ​@@a_weekend_with_us Thanks for the inspiration. I have little kids so I have to find a dark place in the city center or somewhere near Cafe/restaurant like Fjellheisen rather than join Aurora tour.

    This was a great video, but I am surprised you didn't visit Ølhallen (The Beer Hall). The oldest pub in Tromsø and the pub in Europe with the highest number of beer on tap.

      Thanks 🙂 It looked like a cool building and I was interested in doing a guided tour but just ran out of time (and kept getting distracted by things!). I would love to come back to Tromsø and it would be on my itinerary for sure 👍

      @a_weekend_with_us  28 дней назад

      Thanks! I took the local bus - the number 42 stopped close to my hotel but there are a couple of others that go to the centre too. There's also an airport bus which costs more. There's a bit about the bus journey in the video about my travel day - ruclips.net/video/L9MaLpY4RZo/видео.html Hope that helps!

      @a_weekend_with_us  2 месяца назад +2

      Thank you! I was there 22-26 Jan. I thought there was more daylight generally than I was expecting. It was probably light from maybe 9ish in the morning to 2.30/3pm. So you will probably be there in the Polar Night and it'll be darker, although you'll still get some daylight but just won't see the sun. Hope you have a great trip, I really loved it there and hope you will too 😊

      @@a_weekend_with_us Well I am a fellow motorhomer, but at the moment I'm researching Tromsø and have watched a lot of videos about the city. So I am generally looking for new things to add to the list. Watching each and every video without checking the chapters first is not realistic.
      Happy travels! 👍

    Hi, when did you visit Tromso in January? Next year we will also visit Tromso and I am just wondering how dark it will be from 1st until 12th of January... thanks :) Subscribed! :)

      Hi, I arrived on 22 Jan and left on 26 Jan. The "Polar night" had officially ended the week before and I had daylight from maybe around 9.30am until 3ish probably, although didn't see the sun itself. It'll be darker for you but I reckon it will still lighten up for a bit during the day. There's a livestream on RUclips - @VervetTroms Utsikt Sør - that gives you a good idea of the daylight. It's crazy how light it is now compared to just a few months ago. Hope you have an amazing time 🙂

    Hey, thank you for the vlog. I am visiting next january, and super excited. Did you use card payment for everything, i heard that cash isnt used much or at all? Am thinking of getting a travel/currency card for my trip.

    • @a_weekend_with_us
      @a_weekend_with_us  8 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you. Have a great time! I took cash but found that a lot of places didn't take it, so you would definitely be OK without it. Even the places that did take it would automatically fire up their card machine and I'd have to ask to pay cash! If you want to use public transport, you can buy tickets on the app (single tickets or multi-day ones like I had) - very easy and the buses were reliable.

    There's a lot of daylight in your video, as Tromso has Polar Night till January 15, I am guessing you visited during January second half....?

      @a_weekend_with_us  Месяц назад

      Yes, from memory I think I was there from 22-26 January. There was daylight but I didn't quite see the sun because of the mountains round the city.

    • @a_weekend_with_us
      @a_weekend_with_us  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hi, I booked my Aurora Safari through Best Arctic (bestarctic.com) and my boat trip through Visit Tromsø (visittromso.no) and I would recommend them both - no hassle, good communication etc. Visit Tromsø also has lots of information about activities and trips. For the museums and cable car, I just bought tickets on arrival (you can buy them through Visit Tromsø as well but I don't think there would be any advantage in doing so). Have a great trip!
