Sommaroy Island Sojourn

 

We arrived in Tromso, Norway aboard the Viking Venus and set out early for our excursion to the Sommaroy Islands. It was a long bus ride, but the views were lovely along the way.

Viking writes, "Journey through a winter landscape dotted with traditional farms in valleys hemmed in by steep gray mountains, rising out of the deep blue ocean. Arrive at the wintery idyll of Sommarøy, an island village of 300 residents that generations of fishermen and hunters have called home. Learn about an ordinary day in the life of Sommarøy’s residents, how they earn a living from the sea and the surrounding countryside. After your tour, savor a fresh waffle in the local café before returning along the Kattfjord, with stunning views of the majestic mountain locals call Blåmann."

If you want to see beautiful landscapes then this is for you. There were a couple of side stops for pictures and there were two restroom breaks. The waffle was tasty with the famous brown carmelized cheese and raspberry jam.

Happy travels to all...
