On this tour we take you on a walk around the small city centre of Tromsø that has been founded in 1795 on the island of Tromsøya and its surrounding. The city has, also called the Gateway to the Arctic, been throughout history the start for several Polar Expedition.
Tromsø has long been an important base for many polar expeditions, and the Polar Museum exhibits and presents this polar seafaring tradition. After the visit at the Polar Museum, the walk continues through the “Storgata” towards Ølhallen, Tromsøs oldest pub. Ølhallen used to be a popular place to stay for fishermen and explorers.
