Episode notes
Try Local Menu Highlights On European Sailings
- Expect regional menu differences on European sailings; some dishes and breadings (like chicken tenders) will taste different.
- Try recommended mains like lamb shanks or beef Wellington that stood out on this cruise.
Rent Locally In Norway For Easier Port Days
- For ports like Haugesund, book local car services (e.g., bookbill.no) to save money and get doorstep pickup at the pier.
- Confirm drop-off and pickup plans with the local operator to simplify returns to the ship.
Pack For Steep Fjord Hikes
- Prepare for steep hikes like Himakånå: wear proper hiking shoes, bring poles, and allow time for steep elevation gains.
- Choose Disney excursions if you prefer gentler options; many private hikers didn't reach the summit.
