Join Francis Lam of The Splendid Table on a Culinary Expedition

If you love culinary trips, but you also like adventure travel, this culinary expedition from Lindblad Expeditions could be the vacation of your dreams. The Nordic Passages Expedition has two sail dates in 2017, one in June and the other in August. The 14-day expedition on the National Geographic Orion starts in Bergen and ends in Reykjavic.

On this extraordinary journey you'll:

  • See Iceland’s vast Vatnajökull icecap, third largest in the world, a seldom-seen sight to behold that is the focus of so much media attention
  • Sail under the towering bird cliffs of Noss that teem with murres and kittiwakes, and visit a colony of thousands of charismatic puffins in the Faroes
  • Discover a land of living geology: from boiling mud pools to spectacular waterfalls to the world’s youngest island
  • Meet welcoming locals—modern day Vikings—who make their lives in these spectacularly remote and beautiful lands
  • See the dramatic cliffs and sea stacks and stunning Viking relics

You'll also travel with Francis Lam, host of public radio’s The Splendid Table, editor-at-large at Clarkson Potter. In 2014, while  on assignment for Bon Appetit magazine, he visited the remote Faroe Islands. His article introduced American foodies to the "New Nordic cuisine" practiced there and the innovative chefs who won the islands its first Michelin star. With Francis as your guide you'll meet some remarkable individuals and discover this unique cuisine built on foraging, fermented lamb, and incredible seafood, including Faroese langoustines, universally considered the finest in the world.
