Local guides and accommodation

๐Ÿ˜Ž Local guides

Emil and the SeilNorge Team. Emil is a guide and skipper, founder of SeilNorge, the countryโ€™s leading tour operator outdoor sports trips and expeditions. He is a true local expert. Indeed, Emil has been taking outdoor sports enthusiasts on his sailboats around Norway since 2008. 

โ›ต๏ธ Accommodation

Your accommodation for the week will be a fully equipped sailboat to share with with your group, the skipper and the guide. Accommodation on board will be in a shared double cabin (bunk or double bed) with a ready-made bed (warm and nice duvets and pillows!).

 

๐Ÿฅฐ The boat provides heating and good food, but fresh water isnโ€™t always abundant. Water conservation means not showering every day, but when near freshwater sources, we make the most of it. But nothing beats a morning sea swim for that fresh feeling.
