The experience
A trip with Talaria is an extraordinary experience. Wheather you join us for a shorter excursion, a private sea and wildlife safari or a transport stage with your group or company.
Surrounded by spectacular nature wherever we go. Birds and animals to observe. And if we’re lucky; a pod of white beaked dolphins may swim with us for a while. The area is simply packed with beautiful impressions.
Safety first
Talaria is a 42 foot Goldfish X12 with 1350 HP, constructed for use in rough weather. The boat is equipped with the best navigation and safety gear, and the pilots are sertified and very experienced seafarers. A Talaria RIB adventure shall always be a nice and safe experience.
Full speed to peace & quiet
With Talaria you get the best of two worlds. From full action to total silence. We move quickly from place to place, before we slow down or lay still to enjoy spectacular nature and wildlife. It does not matter which way you look, the wievs are stunning. Use the opportunity to take memorable photos, before the captain offers some more high speed adventure when he sets the course for the next lovely spot.
Facilities
10 comfortable, cushioned seats are waiting for our guests. 4 of these are placed in the heated cockpit. The cockpit may be completely closed, partly or totally open. Tell the pilots what you prefer and they will deside how to rig the cockpit.
Talaria has plenty of space for luggage and equipment you need to bring along. Heavy sound system on board if you want to rock the boat with your favourite band.
Food & beverage
On these shorter trips there is normally no serving. For excursions with private groups and companies, we can offer various menues. Together we find the solution that suits the duration and route for your trip.
Clothing
Thermal suits, personal safety gear, goggles and warm boots are included. Wear warm layers for use under the thermal suit, and remember hat, scarf and mittens. Tromsø lies approximately on the edge of the Arctic ice. It is cold here, but it is even colder out at sea. We therefore recommend that you keep abreast of the weather forecast before your trip and dress accordingly.
