Guided afternoon tour around Longyearbyen and surroundings - Longyearbyen Guiding

About

Explore Longyearbyen in the midnight sun or during the blue hour! The light up here changes quickly, and sometimes it can give you the feeling that both the days and the seasons move a bit faster than on the mainland. Join an exciting guided afternoon tour around Longyearbyen in a warm and comfortable minibus. This gives you a great overview of the most exciting places in the city that you can explore in more detail later on your own. The guide shares firsthand stories from the island over the past 35 years and shows you the must-visit places. All in a spectacular light you’re unlikely to find elsewhere. A tour with Longyearbyen Guiding is more than just a minibus tour from hotspot to hotspot. Our guide Magnus, who grew up here, shares stories about the old mining town, what life was like here then and now, and historical events and personal experiences from his 30 years of work up here. That means you, as a guest, get an authentic introduction to the culture and history of Svalbard. Self-experienced dramatic stories, in-depth knowledge about the mines of Store Norske, and a truthful and exciting history of the miners and their lives. Additionally, you will be taken to places and attractions that most others will never know about. There will be several stops for photography on all our tours. We offer daily tours departing at 15:00.
