A journey on the Telemark Canal aboard the M/S Henrik Ibsen is a unique historical boat trip through spectacular Norwegian nature with fantastic lock constructions, considered the world's eighth wonder when carved into the mountains at the end of the 19th century. Whether seated on the Promenade deck, in the café or in the restaurant "Aft Lounge" you will be offered first class service and culinary pleasures from the ship's galley. Combining a historical canal cruise with a culinary stay at the Dalen Hotel is defined as a "SPA for your soul".
We are proud to invite you to a spectacular and historical journey on the Telemark Canal, offering top class comfort and service in Norway's most beautiful surroundings.
The veteran ship is open to groups and can be chartered on request.
