Tromsø in November

Any suggestions for a boat trip? We will be in Tromso Oct 31-Nov 6 and I've seen several advertised with mixed reviews. Not looking for a dinner cruise. Possibly optional Northern lights sightings, fijords and getting out of Tromsø to view more scenery but will it be covered with snow?

We booked a small van Northern Lights trip. Of course, no guarantees so thought a boat might be another option and be nice to see the area around Tromsø. We will take the Storsteinen Cable car and hope to attend a musical concert at the Arctic Cathedral and some local museums. Next is a Finland tour including Helsinki & Lapland with more nordic adventures.

Any suggestions to expand our Tromsø experience would be greatly appreciated!

Of course at good weather a visit to Fjellheisen will provide a great overview onto Tromsø.
Kaffebønna has good tasting coffee variants and pastries.
A memorial steel plate and small info boards are all you can see at Tirpitz memorial but some how WWII history becomes a little bit more real. German battleship Tirpitz was the sister ship of famous battleship Bismarck.

With 6 days you might think about taking a Hurtigruten or Havila ship port-to-port?
