Local food tasting and rituals on deck

These sessions are sometimes combined with tastings of seasonal local specialties. Try fresh shrimps in the Lyngenfjord in spring or cloudberries during autumn. In winter they offer freshly cooked fishcakes, while “Trollsoup” is on the menu when we sail into the Trollfjord in summer.
