Private Minivan Tour from Svolvær to the Northern Lofoten Archipelago

About the Activity

What to Expect

Join us for a private guided minivan tour to discover the northern side of the breathtaking Lofoten Archipelago. Your adventure begins in the charming village of Kabelvåg, known for its picturesque harbor and rich history as one of the oldest fishing villages in Norway. Here, you can explore the quaint streets and take in the stunning views of the surrounding mountains and sea. Next, we head to Henningsvær, often referred to as the "Venice of Lofoten" because of its unique setting on several small islands. This vibrant fishing village offers a glimpse into the local culture and is renowned for its art galleries and cozy cafés.

Continuing our journey, we drive across the scenic Gimsøy island, where you'll be surrounded by serene landscapes of rolling hills and pristine beaches. The highlight here is the beautiful Gimsøy Church, a wooden structure that stands against the backdrop of the majestic ocean. Our next stop is the fishing village of Eggum, a peaceful place with an intriguing history and dramatic coastal views. Take a moment to appreciate the tranquility and perhaps spot some local wildlife along the rugged shoreline.

Our tour wouldn't be complete without a visit to Unstad, a world-famous surfing destination with awe-inspiring waves and a dramatic Arctic setting. Feel the thrill of the ocean or simply enjoy a walk along the sandy beach. Finally, we arrive at Haukland, known for its breathtaking white sand beach and crystal-clear waters. This is the perfect spot to relax and reflect on your journey through the Lofoten Archipelago. This tour is ideal for those who want to experience the natural beauty and cultural charm of northern Norway.
