Enjoy Norway’s fjords with TV’s Hairy Bikers
IN THEIR latest series, The Hairy Bikers Go North, Dave Myers and Si King, better known as the Hairy Bikers, have been working their way across the culinary hotspots of the top half of England from east to west.
On our memorable eight-day cruise, they’ll be joining you closer to the frozen north as you travel in luxury to explore the jaw-dropping scenery of the Norwegian fjords.
Your 2022 holiday begins in Amsterdam, where you’ll set sail on Holland America Line’s brandnew, five-star Rotterdam. During your deluxe full-board cruise, you’ll have time to discover Norway’s pretty ports of Bergen and Molde and marvel at the awesome natural beauty of Hardangerfjord and Geirangerfjord.
The Hairy Bikers are huge fans of Norway, having toured the country’s west coast during their epic 5,000-mile European journey for the BBC’s Hairy Bikers’ Bakeation.
Famous for their infectious humour and love of great food, wine and conversation, the duo will host a private cocktail party and cooking demonstration aboard the ship, and join you for a special Q&A and book-signing.
Readers booking this exclusive holiday will also receive a hardcover copy of the pair’s latest cookbook, The Hairy Bikers’ British Classics, which Dave and Si will happily sign when you meet them.
Si says: ‘We discovered the wonders of Norway for the first time while filming Bakeation in 2012, when we cooked on a ship going down one of the fjords.
‘It was one of the most beautiful places we’d ever been to. We always promised to go back, and now we are. The food and people are amazing – and Dave is longing to get back to his Viking roots! We sincerely look forward to seeing you on our Nordic adventure.’
