If you think you have already seen the most stunning landscapes in the world, well let me disappoint you. Lofoten islands are the real paradise on earth. In these remote islands, beauty is everywhere you look. I will drive you along the three most beautiful islands, through fishermen villages made of the typical "rorbua", red houses on stilts, between narrow fjords and mighty peaks, sandy beaches and frozen lakes. We will stop several of times to enjoy the countless stunning views. On our way, we will have the possibilitto learn the history of "skrei" or stockfish, the famous dried cod which made Lofoten famous in the world already from the 14th century. You will have the chance to visit the Viking Museum and the Stockfish museum and to taste a delicious fish soup and typical Norwegian cakes. I will then take you back to Leknes with your hearts full of memories and your cameras full of photos. Feel free to contact me. My experience as a local guide will allow me to build the perfect tour for your need
Andrea took our 3 generation family of six on a wonderful tour. He was waiting for us when we came off the ship, and drove us all over the Lofoten Islands, stopping for us to walk around and take photos at numerous beautiful sites. It was a delightful day and we really feel we had an excellent overview of the area. And without 50 people crammed onto a large bus!
Andrea was courtesy, accommodating and helpful. His tour was one of the best excursions we had on our tour in Norway!
We had an extraordianry tour with Andrea Selva through and around the Lofoten Islands. We saw beautiful beaches, fishing villages, seascapes, a very old church, and much, much more. Andrea was knowledgeable, personable, entertaining, and engaging. His van carried the six of us comfortabley. I recommend him and this tour without reservation.
You can certainly drive around the Lofoten Islands by yourself and be stunned by the beautiful landscape. But when you have Andrea as your guide the day is taken to the next level. He knows all the places to get the best views and has full knowledge of the history and daily life of the Islands. Heartfelt thanks Andrea for a special day.
We had the most amazing day touring Lofoten Islands with Andrea Selva, he was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable. The scenery was spectacular. This day was one of our highlights of our cruise. The weather was picture perfect and Andrea was willing to stop to give us opportunities to take photos. He surprised us with a plate of local cheeses etc which were so tasty. We were a group of 7 people and found the car ride very comfortable. We enjoyed Andrea company and highly recommend him as a guide.
Andrea was a wonderful tour guide. The weather turned out to be gorgeous when our group visited Lofoten, and Andrea was able to adjust the tour to take advantage of the great weather so that we could see so much of Lofoten's beautiful scenery. Andrea was knowledgeable and very accommodating to our group. The lunch he provided was a nice treat filled with local specialties. We all had a fantastic day. Highly recommend Andrea and would definitely use him again.
