Good to know
Suitable for baby carriages and a limited number of wheelchairs. There is a lower water level in Tromsø, which results in a steeper gangway for disembarkation and boarding. This requires that the wheelchair user have the mobility to walk on and off the boat. Our crew will be helpful in getting both the passenger and wheelchair safely on board.
