Arctic Guide Service AS (formerly known as Lofoten Guide Service and Tromsø Guide Service) with branches in Lofoten, Tromsø and North Cape mainly deals with guiding, and arranging tours for cruise ships, the Coastal Steamer (Hurtigruten), and tour operators. 

This forms the bulk of our activities.  Within only few years of we have established ourselves as the leading contractor and guide service in the northern parts of Norway.

We started up as Lofoten Guide Service in 2001. In 2006, we established the daughter company Tromsø Guide Service, localized in Tromsø, and offering the same services as Lofoten Guide Service.

The two companies have worked closely together, and guides from Tromsø can be used in Lofoten and vice versa. After our expansion to North Cape, we are proud to offer our services also here under the new name Arctic Guide Service, a name that shows our strong connection to the arctic region.

This season we will engage around 130 guides, and can offer tours in Norwegian, English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, and Finnish.

Our guides have all undergone basic training.  This involves attending a guiding course in addition to private study and joining a number of tours as an observer.

Our Tromsø office is at the 2nd floor in  Søndre Tollbodgate 3A - In the heart of
