Today was a BUSY day! We arrived around 7:30 am in Tromsø - the second largest city in Norway - and were off on the "included" tour by 9:15. We rode on the bus through the city and saw a unique church and then drove to a lookout point where the scenery was worth the price of admission.
Back on board by 11:30 where we had a little over an hour for lunch and re-grouping before our second tour.
The second tour was also very scenic - the panoramas were "WOW" and I could have taken and posted at elast two dozen pictures of fjords with snow-capped mountains, but unless you were there they would all look the same. As far as a "great excursion" we wouldn't rate it as such because we drove for an hour....had a waffle....went for a little walk (which was billed as 30 min and it took less than ten min, so we wandered around, the guide making it up as she went); and then drove the hour back. Still, it was great scenery and that's what we came for.
