Short answer, yes. 😁

Many guests bring alcohol. With wine in bags/boxes being a favourite method. It’s pleasant to share a glass around the campfire after a great day paddling on the fjord.

On day three of the Sognefjord expedition, we are in a small village and have a restaurant meal. Wine & local beers are available at the restaurant and beer at a small local shop here.

Please note that in Norway wine & spirits are only available from special shops called ‘Vinmonopolet’. Beer can be bought in shops and no alcohol is sold on Sundays unless you are eating in a restaurant.

It’s a good idea to buy any wine or spirits at the airport or city center in Bergen or Voss before arriving at Gudvangen.

(Please note: We strongly urge guests to be moderate with alcohol consumption on the expedition. It is no fun for anyone if a guest is hungover and can also be a safety concern. Guests are not permitted on/in the water if under the influence of alcohol.)
