Norwegian cooking class

Its long coastline, high mountains, and major agricultural regions provide Norway with some of the best ingredients in the world. This has led to a culinary revolution that combines old traditions with innovative new techniques and presentation methods. That's why it's no surprise that Norway is the most awarded country in the Bocuse d’Or gastronomic competition.

The cost of this optional hands-on Norwegian cooking class with a local professional chef is $247.00 per person.

Therese , Delaware, Ohio - Wonderful time service and hotels were top of the line. Had time at each stop to explore the area on our own or with fellow travelers.

Pam Clark , Moville, IA - My tour of Norway was everything I'd hoped it would be and more. The accommodations and food were great, the size of the group was perfect, and the places we visited were fun. The tour guides knew their information well and made the tours interesting. My favorite part of the whole trip was preparing the 3 course meal with Chef Michael. The meal was so delicious and it was fun to work together as a group to accomplish a beautiful gourmet meal.

Jean Petrocelli, Bridgewater, NJ - "It was interesting and informative."

Marilee Williamson, Buchanan, VA - "This was a most spectacular tour trip. The sites were beautiful and very special, the hotels were great, food excellent."

Stephanie Kollar, Hollis, NY - "This was a wonderful mix of sightseeing and knitting. I truly enjoyed the entire experience."

Phyllis Schicker, Johnson Creek, WI - "A great opportunity to see a beautiful country and combine it with a favorite passion, knitting and crocheting. Also, a great opportunity to meet others with the same passion for these crafts."

Mary Stambaugh, Morina, CA - "Such a great trip! Norway is beautiful, and our escort, Mary Ellen, took care of the details with humor and grace. Lena’s knitting lessons were wonderful. I would definitely book another Craftours trip!"

Monika Huelsebusch, Germany - "A great trip with Craftours! The staff were very helpful to arrange my cruise to Norway. The cruise liner and the staff of Royal Caribbean were absolutely amazing! Well organized sewing classes with brand new sewing machines onboard and very interesting teachers. I had a really wonderful time and met so many lovely people with the same interests like I have.
Thanks a million to everyone who helped make this cruise the journey of my life time!!!"

Leila and Jim Davis, Hot Spring, SD - "Learned a lot hope to do it again in the Future. Norway was great and beautiful"

Judy Prowse, Edmonton, Canada - "This was 4 firsts for me: cruise, quilting trip, Norway & travel companion (the latter was my only total accountability) -- all 4 were fantastic! I really enjoyed the cruise and off-ship excursions, but would have found it overwhelming without the additional purpose & opportunities provided by Craftours."

Bonnie Post, Satellite Beach, FL - "The tour was guided so well and the knitting and crochet classes were the best I’ve had because the instructor Lena S. from Annie’s is truly professional and presents a great learning experience. She was an asset to the tour!"

Sue Goodridge, Wiltshire, UK - "The tutors Stuart Hillard, Judi Mendelssohn and Linzi Upton were very well prepared and the workshops seemed to go with a swing, time went fast and I admit to feeling washed out after them. They were all different but interesting. Plenty of extra sewing time, we were greatly helped with the PFAFF sewing machines by Jo and Stephen who kept machines in working order for us - we certainly kept them busy as a majority of the sewing sessions were well attended. Some of us worked one evening until nearly 11pm!! I think we were so engrossed we forgot the time. Having a good timetable helped - at least we hoped we could find the conference centre in time."
