All reviews stuffed animals north pole arctic exploration roald amundsen english guide seal hunting norwegian explorers worth a visit interesting history guide book polar bear interesting place couple of hours on display exhibits booklet information
Really wasn't a fan of this museum. Really glorified the hunting and trapping history and there were better ways it could have been told. Very graphic displays involving stuffed dead animals. Made me feel physically ill.
Closed for the week we were there, which is such a shame as we were really looking forward to seeing the exhibit. Tromso was full of tourists, so seemed an odd time to be closed
Nice museum with many rooms on Arctic life and polar exploration. Free guide book in English so you’re not totally confused by the Norwegian descriptions.
Some stuff is a bit contrived and cheesy but the display on Amundsen is excellent.
Had just re-opened.. Very well laid out and interesting exhibits throughout..Tough these Norwegians..! Would have like more English translations on the smaller exhibits..
We were there with a tourguide so don’t know the prices. I really liked the visual experience, not only text but a lot of stuff you can feel and are allowed to touch. One of the betrer museum-experiences!
A good museum that looks at the polar history of Norway.
My only issue was the booklet they provide is written in too small a writing for me to easily read
It is not closed despite people saying it is, you need to visit the...More
Unbelievably shut in Sami week, although being advertised as having a Sami Display. Could be worth a visit but not knowing what is inside and when open.
This site is still closed despite the website stating that they would be opening back up on January 6th. We tried to go on January 12th but it looks like they are closed until February
We went with our one year old. She wasn't interested in much, but it's a casual place and no one minded her crawling around a bit. Older children would likely be interested in the stuffed animals and model boats.
