Arctic Fjord Cruise & Fishing Experience options and prices
Two options, both all-inclusive and the same price — they differ in the time of day and the length.
Prices move by date. Some dates show a discount — we saw €157.15 instead of €174.61. The operator also describes a cheaper Classic Fjord Cruise without fishing; it was not on sale as an option when we checked.
