The tour starts and ends in Honningsvåg, the gateway to North Cape. You’ll first head to the small village of Sarnes where you can learn about and sample a local delicacy: king crab. The meal will be served the traditional way: with soft bread, mayonnaise, and a slice of lemon.
Then, the bus continues to North Cape, passing dramatic subarctic landscape along the way. Arriving at 71 degrees north, you can stand on the edge of the cliff, marvel at the stunning ocean views, and take photos by the iconic globe monument. While you’re there, make sure to visit North Cape Hall and see a movie showcasing the region throughout the seasons or pick up a souvenir at the shop.
