Embark on cultural and culinary experiences
Embracing the essence of travel for me is the joy of connecting with locals who passionately share their lifework. These individuals, often artisans and storytellers, are deeply immersed in the arts of farming, harvesting, foraging, cooking, brewing, distilling, or other culinary pursuits.
My insider advice is to embark on a culinary journey through Norway, savoring the opportunity to actively participate in the harvesting of flavors from both land and sea. Beyond the burgeoning Michelin-starred scene, you'll soon unveil the rich tapestry of Norway's culinary landscape, woven together by the genuine tales and skills of its people.

Before we confirm availability for your requested dates, we ask for a advance trip-design payment of min NOK 3000,- to cover the time that goes into planning your journey, confirming availability and prices. This amount also ensures that we do not hold reservations with our partners unnecessarily. The amount goes towards your trip, but is non refundable should you choose not to book.
