As a traveller with Hurtigruten, your contribu- tion to environmental care is welcome. We have garbage sorting aboard all ships, and we encour- age you to turn off lights when leaving the cabin and pull out the plug from electrical transformers not in use. When ashore, bring your litter back to the vessel or dispose at designated places. We are often near wildlife on our voyages. Please heed the advice of our tour leader/expedition leader and excursion guides and strive towards acting in a way that does not alter the wildlife’s natural behaviour.
Hotel accommodation The standard of the hotels we use is equivalent to 3 or 4-star. There is no official hotel rating system in Norway. All rooms have private facilities (except for the Snowhotel in Kirkenes). Single rooms may be smaller and less conven- iently situated and may be double rooms for sole occupancy or purpose-built single rooms. Hotels may charge for some facilities e.g. saunas.
Time in Norway CET (GMT + 1) CEST (GMT +2)
