We take you on unforgettable experiences
In both The Northwest Experience (NWE) and the Sami Experience (SE) we have several boats that can take you on unforgettable cruises, exciting fishing trips and practical transport to the most beautiful destinations.
M/S Lagertha
A 50-passenger fast boat that we will use for routes and charters in the Romsdalsfjord. It will be classified for small coastal navigation, so we can also take you to Ona Lighthouse, Rundeøya or across Hustadvika.
The name of the new boat is “MS LAGERTHA”.
“Lagertha” was a Norwegian skjoldmær (from Old Norse skjaldmær) according to the legend. She was the wife of the famous Viking Ragnar Lodbrok. Her story was documented by the Danish chronicler Saxo Grammaticus in the 12th century. Today’s historians believe that Lagertha was probably not a historical figure, but rather stories about Viking warrior women or about the Norse deity.

MS Sagasund
FIRST-CLASS FJORDBOAT
Sagasund, formerly Tyrihans, was built at Ulstein mek.Verksted as a modern fjord boat. She first operated Oslo-Nesodden for 25 years before being sold to Sweden where she has had various missions and routes since then.
In 2023, local forces took over from Ålesund and brought this proud ship back to her home regions, where she transported tourists and locals on fjord cruises out of Ålesund.
In the 2024 season, Sagasund will run charter trips in the Nærøyfjord.
Sagasund has beautiful salons with large windows, and is therefore very suitable for sightseeing tours. There is also plenty of space out on the deck, so guests can move freely around, inside and out.
