May I introduce myself and my company?
My name is Monika Raab, the owner of Booking Kirkenes (Pasvikturist AS org.nr: 992289171).
I have lived in Kirkenes since 2001. My geography studies brought me from Southern Germany to Northern Norway and my love for the north has never left me. Kirkenes is a special place that differs from other northern Norwegian areas. In many ways we are in a border area: borders to Finland and Russian, climatical border, tree line, different time zones and much more. The location, the climate, the landscape are diverse.

Kundeanmeldelser i Tripadvisor om Booking Kirkenes
Why give a ten to a transportation service? Very easy, when they do everything well and in addition to giving a smile because it is a pleasure, the only regret... read more we have left is not spending more time in Kikernes, since Monica conquered us with the attractions of this town.
What have they done with ten?
-They have responded to the request, something that not everyone does.
-They have adapted perfectly to the short route we asked for: Russian border + airport in just an hour and a half.
-The price is quite reasonable for what prices are in Norway, of course.
-He received us punctually and with a huge smile (he also said goodbye to us).
-It has enlivened and cultured us throughout the journey, causing us to want to return to Kirkenes no matter what.
Do not hesitate to count on her for your adventure in these places.
