Great experience. Very nice and helpful captain during the fishing. Good equipment. On the way back the captain showed us how to fillet the fish and we took it home.
juli 27, 2022What an amazing experience ! We’ve booked a sea eagle safari for the whole family and it will for sure be one of our favourite memories in the Lofoten Islands.

august 4, 2022This was supposed to be the highlight of my 5 days in Lofoten as I am an extreme fishing enthusiast! But the trip was a BIG disappointment! Their “advertisement” said... read more that they would offer all the equipment I would need, so I didn’t bring my own fishing rod. This turned out to be a big mistake cause they only had 7 rod’s for the 7 people on board, and I ended up with the one that was destroyed. For tourists who have never fished before, I guess it might be okay, but for someone who knows, this was a disaster! If I could I would have just left the boat! I feel tricked and wish I had spent my evening and money on something else! If you love fishing as much as me, I recommend you to chose a more professional company! …
juli 1, 2021Very good experience!! We were two families of 7 total (adults + teenagers) travelling together at the end of July 2020. The booked 3-hour fishing tour ended up being... read more a 4+ hours tour as our guide let us fish longer and drove us closer to the dolphins we spotted on our return trip and also gave us some extra time out fishing / feeding leftovers to seagulls due to the superb weather that day. Our guide was informative, helpful, calm and friendly. He taught us how to fish, select depth & why, care for the fish, the laws for fishing, to slay the fish, spoke warmly about protecting the species (not over-fishing, but only fish what you will actually eat.) And he was a bit if a tourist guide too enroute. We would surely recommend him (and presumably his brothers too. We met one of them as we docked, he seemed like a friendly fellow too) We got a cup of hot coffee or blackcurrant enroute. But do bring some food and maybe a pack of wet wipes for the trip. We brought freshly baked cinnamon rolls & shared with the others. Much appreciated after some hours on board... and the wet wipes are ... let's just say that fish smells and it's much nicer to eat if your hands don't smell like fish... 😉 …

visited the trollfjiord on a speedboat, surrounded by beautiful landscapes and amazing sea eagles. what an experience!
august 22, 2021This was an excellent trip which we did with our two teenage children. Go2Lofoten were superb and gave us all the kit needed for the boat ride and they explained... read more everything very clearly. The boat was fast and great fun (seating was 2 people wide meaning everyone got a great view) and the tour guide was very informative and told us many fun and interesting tales during the trip. We saw numerous sea eagles at remarkably close range, the beautiful Trollfjord as well as other local scenery on the way out and back. Seeing the Lofoten landscape from the sea was amazing.
A definite highlight from our holiday and I cannot recommend this trip to you enough if you want to see the wildlife and the beauty of the fjord up-close.
august 27, 2022Great fishing experience with a very capable guide (Johannes), that told local tales and gave us good advice on how to catch fish. Will recommand the firm and the guide... read more especially!
juli 21, 2021We were a family of eight persons (five from Hamburg, Germany; two from Bretagne, France, and one from Trondheim, Norway) who had booked a fishing trip (four hours) with Go2Lofoten... read more during the Lofoten fisheries.
It turned out to be an unforgettable and spectacular event. Not only did we catch enough fish for the rest of our stay in Lofoten - five days (most "små-sei" (small saithe/ pollock) but also a couple of "Skrei" "pregnant cod !" of "reasonable" size , but we also learned from the skipper how to bleed, gutt, and fillet the fish.
Finally, we also got the opportunity to see the professional fishermen "in action" (NB In Norway, women are now also professionals!), setting their nets etc. And we were lucky to observe a sea eagle! The weather was unusually cold, but blue sky, quiet sea and with the suites provided by Go2Lofoten we were warm....

We were two couples who were able to book this trip last minute through email at midnight the day before heading out. Even though they were initialt fullt booke they... read more were able to bring us out in their industrial small fishing boat (kalles a "sjark"). We had quite a bit of wind and waves, but our captain were very skilles and took us safely to great fishing spots. All onboard were able to catch a few fish, both large and small, and he even spent an extra hour after the trip filleting all the fish for us to take home. He also provides us with great cooking tips for the different linds of fish, which turned out delicious. Thanks for an incredibly joyous experience!
august 4, 2020Great experience, they take their time to look for eagles and to explain everything. They make sure not to disturb the birds whilst still getting close.
It is a local... read more family busisness and this you feel!
