Great trip, do not hesitate to book one of Dave Williams' excursions. - We fell in love with this place, and this is due in no small part to the fantastic trip we took on 2nd August, which gave us a real insight into the history, nature, and geology of the area and took us to some fantastic locations. Dave Williams, an English born professional photographer and arctic specialist who set up Lofoten Insight a couple of years ago, was engaging, well-informed, and made the excursion very interesting. If you are planning to come to Solvaer, do not hesitate to book one of his trips!
