Departure: Tromsø Prostneset express-boat quay
The ferry from Tromso to Finnsnes leaves from Tromsø Prostneset express-boat quay, in Tromso - Tromsø is the Arctic capital of Norway, the base for the northern lights, the midnight sun and the Fjellheisen cable car. Foot passengers should be at the port 45 to 60 minutes before departure, earlier on international crossings where passports are checked. Getting there: The airport bus reaches the centre in about 15 minutes and suits a city hotel; a private car is easier for a late arrival, for winter luggage and for fjord and island destinations such as Kvaløya, Sommarøy, the Lyngen Alps or Kilpisjärvi, where metro, tram or bus is infrequent.

- Ask us which gate or terminal your sailing uses - big ports have several
