The tour was incredibly well organized. The guide (Maurizio) let me discover these breathtaking islands telling me a lot of stories and interesting information about the culture, the nature and everything there is to know about the islands. I wouldn't think twice about booking another tour with Lofoten Lights, and I definitely will when I come back here. Everything was amazing.francescogJ9675SC

Ma che bella esperienza!!! Innanzitutto finalmente dopo 4 giorni di navigazione Hurtigruten sbarchiamo qua alle Lofoten e sentiamo parlare italiano-romano e ci sentiamo a casa !! Poi Claudia e Maurizio sono due persone squisite e gentili, che già ci contattano sulla nave per avvisarci di alcune modifiche. Noi siamo entrati in contatto con loro tramite Giver per il nostro viaggio di nozze, ma ci hanno trattato come se fossimo stati loro clienti privati. Gentili e preparati e disponibili al 1000x10000. Partiamo dall hotel Scandic di Svolvaer ore 9:30 con il tour in pulmino e subito Maurizio si lancia in un racconto stile Alberto Angela (taac così se leggi tu sai il nesso) su tutto ciò che vediamo e attraverso i suoi racconti ci immergiamo in questo mondo magico delle Lofoten. Quasi quasi non vogliamo interromperlo per aggiungere qualche sosta in più alle innumerevoli che già ci fa fare in posti stipendi per le fotografie. Noi da fotografi amatoriali non abbiamo pretese o preferenze, ma nel caso si può interrompere quando si vuole il percorso per fare foto dove , sempre permettendolo la strada, si vuole. Un viaggio attraverso paesaggi mozzafiato, storie, paesini dispersi magnifico e incantevole, come l'amore che ci trasmette Maurizio con le sue storie e racconti. Loro trapiantati da Roma a qua, in Norvegia, l'opposto della loro terra si sono integrati adattati e hanno fatto ciò che tutti sognano: di una passione il proprio lavoro. Che dire? Rivolgetevi a loro per qualsiasi escursione sul territorio o per informazioni semplicemente perché vi aiuteranno anche per gite o informazioni extra dal loro pacchetto. Noi a marzo vogliamo tornare, ben vestiti e non con il Lino addosso, per vedere l'aurora boreale...sognando di tornare anche per vedere le Orche e le balene più a nord, più preparati di un certo Marco !! Grazie :) un abbraccione Francesco e Giulia da VareseGiuseppe R

il 4 luglio 2019 sbarcati dalla nave da crociera Costa Pacifica abbiamo fatto il tour fotografico delle Isole Lofoten con la guida di Maurizio. Il tour è stato piacevolissimo per la bellezza dei luoghi visitatati, per la competenza e disponibilità e simpatia della nostra guida, che con la conoscenza dei luoghi usi e tradizioni ci ha fatto conoscere queste terre lontane. Il tour organizzato per un gruppo massimo di 8 persone ti offre inoltre la massima flessibilità per fermarti dove vuoi e se del caso seguire itinerari alternativi. Consigliatissimo Grazie ancora a Maurizio, a Claudia ed alla sua organizzazione per l'indimenticabile giornata passata assieme.
