WELCOME TO NORWAY

OUR NORTHERN PLAYGROUND

Norway is a fascinating destination; a nature lover’s paradise that also boasts numerous vibrant, trendy and historic cities to explore. Whether you’re an adventure seeker, culinary lover, or simply want to snuggle up in a glass igloo and watch the stunning Northern lights, Norway won’t disappoint.

Adventures North of the Ordinary

Our favorite part is the coastal region, which has been our Northern playground for adventures and explorer cruises since 2005. This beautiful coastline is the world’s second longest (100,900 km) and comes with a whole plethora of Nordic legends.

From Cape Lindesnes to Spitsbergen

Stretching from Lindesnes in the south to Kirkenes in the north and then further beyond to the northern island of Svalbard, close to the North Pole. We fulfil the dreams of modern explorers through a combination of nature, cultural and local culinary experiences and tailored seasonal activities. These are designed to be inclusive for all fitness levels and multi-generational.

Norway, a nature haven

Today Norway is still a nature haven, with a small population of around 5.4 million people. The country enjoys political and economic stability, with friendly

locals happily speaking English with our foreign guests. Even though most parts of the country are off the beaten track, Norway has an extensive network of roads, ferries, and small airports with regular flights between cities and small towns, and further connections to mainland Europe, US, Asia, and the South Pacific. Within three hours of boarding a flight in the capital Oslo, you can be in the middle of the Arctic wilderness of Svalbard – an island with more polar bears than people.

Creating days to remember

Opportunities abound in coastal Norway, whether you want action or relaxation, fun in the snow or lounging under the midnight sun, seeing the sights, or pushing your boundaries, kayaking, skiing, hiking or fishing – the choice is yours. We are here to tailor your next adventure, whether for a weekend or a month. We create days you will remember, hopefully for the rest of your life.

It’s a vibrant city packed with culture, foodie delights and lies scenically alongside the fjord.

Alternatively, you can travel in style on historic boats through the water routes. Upon reaching the windy southern tip at Cape Lindesnes, nature changes suddenly, it gets wilder and rougher, and the open ocean welcomes you.

SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL

SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL can mean a lot of things. According to the United Nations (UN) sustainable tourism is the concept of visiting a place as a tourist and trying to make only a positive impact on the environment, society, and economy. Following this logic, sustainability in tourism means: Respect for the people who call the location home, the culture and customs of the area, and the socioeconomic system. Attempting to have a low impact on the environment and local culture, while helping to generate future employment for local people. Ensuring that development brings a positive experience for local people, tourism companies and the tourists themselves.

Norwegian Adventure Company are committed to creating sustainable experiences in harmony with the local environment, nature and with our project partners. We have five focus areas: the experience itself, the raw materials used, the connection to the local community in each destination, the wellbeing of guests and that of our partners.

RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL

A vital part of our vision in Arctic & Coastal Norway is to help take care of communities, society in general and our environment. Since we started out in 2005, we have used local suppliers whether it is purchasing transport services, local raw materials, guide and hosting services and worked co-operatively with local accommodation providers at various destinations. We make a positive contribution, on a variety of levels, to the local societies and environments in which we have chosen to work.

For us, the road to sustainable experiences begins with a recognition that we have a responsibility through our operations and activities, which is supported by a long-term vision and operational plan. We care deeply about ethical, economic, and environmental issues that affect our activities. For example, we’ve chosen that all the main elements of the culinary menus on our adventures (and the raw materials in the food) must be locally produced by sustainable agricultural and production methods.

WHAT WE DO ON SUSTAINABILITY

THE TASTE OF A PLACE

Norwegian Adventure Company are committed to promoting local culture, traditions, and raw materials from the regions we operate in. We encourage our guests to try truly local delicacies and drinks. Catching their own fish and perhaps having it cooked by award-winning chefs. We promote local raw material suppliers and purchase locally through the Arctic Adventure Cuisine dining experience.

SUPPORTING THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

We encourage guests to taste local delicacies and consider unique crafts and local experiences with a low environmental footprint. In this way we all help to keep a destination as an authentic, thriving place to stay and visit.

OFF THE TOURIST TRAIL

We facilitate trips to stunning and slightly less-known places outside the usual tourist trail. As a point of practice, NAC has developed routes and concepts that deliberately go to places where you can be alone in nature and enjoy the lack of crowds. Often, you’ll be far away from the main tourist areas.

LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE

We’ve made a serious, long-term commitment to being viable and competitive. This is evident in our relationships and in our interaction with the local community, our guests, the natural world, and our project partners.

PRESERVATION OF NATURE, CULTURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Through our adventures, NAC seeks to help preserve, show respect to, and highlight the local cultural heritage, authentic culture, traditions, and distinctive features of Northern Norway.

BOUTIQUE & SUSTAINABLE

Using our experiences and adventures, we want to contribute to the preservation of the natural landscape in Arctic & Coastal Norway, and promote the areas without compromising its resources or beauty. We operate with small groups on a tour, which helps to support this objective, hence our boutique adventure profile.

CLEAN ENVIRONMENT AND ZERO FOOD WASTE

Through our activities, we aim to minimise the guest’s air, water, and land pollution, as well as minimising waste; we are working towards having zero food waste in our operations.

SAFE AND ENRICHING EXPERIENCE QUALITY

Our activities are safety and quality controlled. We work to provide safe, satisfying, and enriching experiences for all guests, regardless of gender, race, disability, or other factors.

ARCTIC ADVENTURE CUISINE

Arctic cuisine is associated with seafood, but a growing revolution has begun. Land-based farmers are beginning to offer an array of specialties using vegetable, herb, and dairy products from the region, as well as quality meats such as lamb and reindeer. scany.

We sit upon a hidden treasure in the North that few Norwegian and foreign tourists know about – Our menu; devised from highest quality local ingredients by some of the world’s best chefs, has a distinctive seasonal quality that showcases the best that Arctic nature can offer.

Nothing grows fast in the cold. Slow growth and a harsh climate have an effect on the animals, organisms and plants that live there. The best chefs claim that the flavours are both more distinctive and purer at the same time. An Arctic kitchen is more minimalist. It’s a place where less is more when it comes to cooking techniques, where you taste the flavors in the raw material itself and in how the ingredients are combined.

We let you taste Arctic and Coastal Norway on a plate

NORTHERN NORWAY ON A PLATE

Since 2018 we’ve been on a journey of discovery through Northern Norway with Gunnar Hvarnes to develop our own Arctic Adventure Cuisine. This is a journey through the counties of Nordland, Troms and Finnmark, with more than 30 small and large raw material producers from the mountains, fjords, sea, and land of the region. Our food concept and menus evolve through three distinct culinary seasons - winter, summer, and autumn.

Arctic Adventure Cuisine is an integral part of all NAC Coastal Cruises and can be offered as a distinct concept for food lovers from corporate – and private groups.

WE BELIEVE IN ADVENTURES FOR EVERYONE

Norwegian Adventure Company are acknowledging the lack of equal opportunities when it comes to travel experiences, and that diversity, equity, access, and inclusion require more than short-term solutions.

We believe the travel industry needs to widen its scope, making inclusivity more visible in their product development, marketing, and communication.

If you, your group of travellers or company have questions regarding inclusion or facilitating the travel for everyone, please get in touch with us.
