The city and the islands beyond

Hi, I'm Susanne and I love wind and weather and nature! That's why I live in the High Arctic! Still, some civilization is nice, that's why I live in the beautiful city of Tromsø! If you wonder how we live at the limits and how we survive in the arctic I would love to share my passion and my excitement with you. If you are looking for memorable experiences under the midnight sun or in polar night under the dancing northern lights join me for a special and safe experience. The centre of Tromsø is situated on one island, though the city area includes 60 more islands. Most of Tromsø is within walking distance, so we can explore most of the highlights and my "hidden gems" by strolling through the city together. Some places, though, like the Arctic Cathedral or the Cable car are easier to reach by either public transport or with a limo. Other adventures, like the beautiful nature of the outer islands or the magic of the northern lights are better experienced with a comfortable limo or taxi. Over the past 30 years, I have been guiding guests in Tromsø, in Norway and Scandinavia in summer and in winter. I have been walking thousands of kilometres on walks in Tromsø and the area of Tromsø, have spent hundreds of nights out under the northern lights and have travelled all varieties of tours in Norway and Scandinavia. I was born in Germany, grew up in Greece, Germany and Norway and have been living and working in various countries. I find my multicultural background comes in handy when welcoming guests from all over the world. In addition to my passion for guiding, I am working as a keynote speaker and a trainer for new city guides, tour guides and northern lights guides. I am also a certified Lead International trainer by the WFTGA (World Federation of Tour Guide Associations), which brings me to different countries to train new guides. What does a tour guide do in her free time? Of course, I love traveling! Having lived in various continents, I enjoy discovering the European countries these years. However, Tromsø and Northern Norway are my all-time favourites! I pride myself on being able to relate to and meet the interests of my guests and will happily customize your tour to meet your needs and wishes.
