Frequently asked questions

Here you get quick access to answers to the most common questions we receive. This applies to everything from facilities and services to local attractions.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for here, you are always welcome to contact us directly.

Should we book a northern lights tour?

The northern lights chasing tours cover a large area around Tromsø, much larger than you could reach by foot or with the city buses. This makes the chances of seeing the northern lights much higher, since you could reach areas with clear sky if it’s cloudy near Tromsø. The northern lights tours also have guides who know what to look for on the forecast to predict where you get the best chances of seeing the northern lights.

It is of course possible to reach the same area around Tromsø on your own if you have a car available during your stay, and many guests have had success with hunting for the aurora on their own. Please do note that the winter roads around Tromsø could be very slippery, and it could be dangerous to drive out if you’re not experienced with wintry driving conditions.
We could help you decide which areas to go to at the reception, but we do not have the same experience and knowledge about the area as the guides driving the norther lights tours have.

Check-in and check-out

Check-in is normally from 15:00 / 3.00 pm on the day of arrival.

If you arrive after our opening hours, you will find an envelope with your name in a gray mailbox by the door of the reception. In this envelope, you will find your keys and info showing where your cabin is located. If you have any questions when you arrive outside of our opening hours, you can reach our security company on our main number all night. (Tel.0047 776 38 037)

Please contact the reception before 12:00 / 12.00 pm the next day to confirm your arrival. We also appreciate if you contact us before arrival if you know that you will arrive after we close for the evening.

Check-out is before 12:00 / 12.00 noon on the day of departure. Please deliver your keys and keycards at the reception when you leave.
If you check out before the opening hours of the reception, please leave your keys in the grey mailbox outside the reception.

If you have any questions regarding pre-payment, please contact the reception / front desk (+47 776 38 037 / post@tromsocamping.no)

Do you have places for caravans and/or motorhomes?

In July of 2015, we opened a brand new site for caravans and motorhomes as a great improvement from our previous camp site.
We have 54 places, each with a leveled asphalt place for the caravan/motorhome, electricity close to the place and a pitch of artificial grass right outside the door of your vehicle. The area has coverage of free Wi-Fi, and brand new service buildings with showers, toilets, kitchen and sauna nearby.

Please note that we use CEE 17-sockets, and not Schuko. If you only have a Schuko-plug available, it is possible to buy or borrow an adapter from the reception.

During the summer season, there is very high demand on our camp site, and we often run out of places some time during the day. If you know which date you will be in Tromsø and want to rent a place, we highly recommend that you contact us beforehand to make sure you get a place. If you want to book for the same day, you could give us a call, and we’ll reserve a place for you.
