A Taste Of Stavanger
Delve into Stavanger's illustrious history and distinct flavors on a three-hour guided walking tour through the historic Gamle district that includes Norwegian delicacies at the Norwegian Canning Museum and Stavanger Maritime Museum. Head out on foot alongside a local guide who will lead you along narrow cobblestone paths around 18th-century white cottages, art galleries and craft boutiques that fill Stavanger's old Gamle neighborhood. Then step back in time at the Norwegian Canning Museum, where in an authentic factory setting, you'll learn about the city's canning industry in the 1800s, viewing the machinery used at the Venus Packing Co. and savoring sardines, salmon and sprat (Norwegian brisling) from the production line. Your route then leads you to the dockside Stavanger Maritime Museum, where you'll explore exhibits that bring to life the development of the harbor, local herring fisheries, shipbuilding traditions and coastal culture. View elaborate boat models, a recreated Monson Shipping Company office, and a sail-maker's workshop. Then delight in a spread of dried mutton, and lefse (Norwegian flatbread) served with tea and coffee.
