Under the midnight sun of summer, the Lofoten Islands dazzle with rugged mountains, glassy waters and quaint fishing villages. Join us to hike their most beautiful trails with an expert local guide, summiting peaks for a sea eagle’s view over the landscape. To make this trip extra special, we begin in the equally spectacular Vesterålen archipelago before crossing over to the Lofoten Islands, where we sleep in rorbuer, converted fishermen’s cabins, right by the water.

The captain and expedition team really pushed the limits to ensure that we visited as many interesting places as possible and saw a wide range of scenery and ecosystems. The crew were very friendly and helpful, and the expedition team was extremely knowledgeable and experienced in both the Arctic and Antarctic. The ship was very comfortable with a fantastic library and other good facilities, and our cabin was wonderful - peaceful, comfortable and beautifully furnished.
