Life on Board

Dining

• Brygga Bistro

  

  Named after the Norwegian word for ‘wharf’, this bistro is the place for some good, hot, comfort food. Familiar fare like pizzas, burgers, sandwiches, and wraps are on the menu, as well as some traditional Norwegian offerings.

• Multe bakery

  

  ‘Multe’ refers to the rare, wild, and tangy ‘cloudberry’ that grows on the Norwegian mountains. Try some cloudberry jam on cinnamon buns, or add to your waffles together with soft and smooth Lofoten ice cream.

• Restaurant Kysten

  

  The pride of Hurtigruten’s chefs, the Kysten, or ‘Coast’, is our à la carte option that will delight our guests with the very best Scandinavian cuisine available and a wine list that will make any connoisseur drool.

• Restaurant Torget

  

  Meaning ‘marketplace’ in Norwegian, this is the main restaurant serving breakfast buffets of freshly baked bread and pastries and made-to-order eggs. For lunch and dinner, you’ll enjoy a variation of buffets and three-course dinners.

Onboard Activities

• Explorer lounge & bar

  

  Sink into a deep, comfortable armchair on the top deck at the front of the ship and gaze out at magnificent views through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The bar here serves up a tempting range of refreshments throughout the day.

Sports and Fitness

• Indoor gym

  

  Guests can work up a good sweat on rowing machines, fitness bikes, yoga mats, and free weights.

Pools

• Sauna & outdoor hot tubs

  

  The rear observation deck, on deck 6, has two outdoor hot tubs to sink into and watch the scenery go by. At the sauna, as the heat rises and the steam soothes the muscles, feel your aches and worries melt away. Is located on deck 2.

Health and Safety Protocols

Be assured that Hurtigruten always follow all safety guidelines as recommended by the Norwegian government. One reason for this confidence in us is because we already have exceptionally high hygiene procedures in place:

• As normal service resumes, Hurtigruten will be reducing the overall number of guests on ships, giving you plenty of space around you when aboard.
• In Hurtigruten's roomy restaurants, they are adding more seating sessions so that there will be fewer people having their meals there at any time.
• Instead of self-service buffets, the chefs will serve food directly to your individual plate.
• The kitchen will continue to uphold its usual high standards of hygiene and quality.

Strict cleaning practices on board

Count on us to already have a range of strict cleaning practices on board, with the cleanness of each ship also continuously monitored. Regular microbiological samples are taken and sent off to laboratories for testing and they use UV light to check surfaces in cabins, galleys and public areas.

Independent inspectors are invited to conduct scheduled and unannounced visits to all the ships several times a year. The excellent hygiene on board the ships is not something they leave to chance. It is the result of effective controls that have proven themselves time and again over decades of safe sailing.

In addition to this,

• Each ship will have a new team dedicated to ensuring communal areas are continually cleaned and disinfected.
• There will be limited use of saunas, swimming pools and gyms.
• Hurtigruten will also have appropriate markings on the ships to help keep a safe distance from others whenever queuing on board.

Staff and your well-being

• They have all recently completed the WHO’s official COVID-19 course for hygiene procedures and infection management.
• Before starting work, every member of the crew undergoes a health check.
• They have thorough first-aid training and can quickly contact healthcare professionals should any medical need arise.
