Interesting place to visit. Good personnel. I was surprised by warm welcome of the personnel and enjoyed listening stories about the centre and salmon farming in Norway. A great place to hide on a windy and rainy day or after a long walk in the city or surrounding mountains.

Very interesting and informative exhibition relating to salmon life cycle and fishing process. Stumbled upon this centre by accident.

Small but well designed - the info is interesting, the english translations are okay and beside texts and videos there is even some material to touch and feel. We even got a small tour! Of course you have to keep in mind that this is a museum made by the fishing industry. Still, they reacted well to critical questions. The information is only about the breeding and growing of salmons, not about the fish itself or how salmon products are made. That's not a bad thing, but it doesn't really become clear from the museum description alone. All in all I recommend a visit, especially since it's for free!

Great place to visit for adults and kids alike. We didn’t know what to expect as we had seen mixed reviews but the centre is fantastic and can wholly recommend a visit! The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do, and the centre is so informative and interesting! They have fantastic displays and even offer a VR journey to a salmon farm to show how the salmon are raised from eggs to transportation to the fjords! We really enjoyed our visit and learned a lot

Quite nice, not too large. Plan about 45min to an hour. Clearly made with love by the team.

What a fun spot! I learned so much about salmon farming in Norway. The guide was friendly and informative. You can see most of the exhibit in about 30 minutes. If you’re passing through Bodø, I would recommend you visit. I heard they’re getting a virtual reality exhibit too, that should be exciting.

Interesting place, very educational

Pretty small place but very cute, worth the visit because it's free. They give a free guided tour. And they have products you can buy made with salmon skin which is cool.

We did a hike of Haraøyskaftet with Jørgen and even though the weather wasn’t ideal we had a great time. The trip was easy to setup and they communicated with us quickly and well. With the wet conditions and this climb being our first outdoor climb with a rappel Jørgen made it fun and feel safe. The Haraøyskaftet trip was easily approachable for us as first timers and if your hesitant I would say go for it. It’ll be a trip you’ll remember.

(Translated by Google) We had a very nice climb to the Hamarøy shaft. Lucky with the weather. Recommended! (Original) Vi hadde en veldig fin klatretur til Hamarøyskaftet. Heldig med været. Anbefales!

(Translated by Google) Highly recommend the cave trip to Aspfjordgrotta. We were a group of five who had the pleasure of experiencing the marble cave together with guide Ivar. None of us had been on a cave hike before, but the trip gave more taste and several of us now want to go on more trips in the future. Ivar made sure that everyone felt safe while we rappelled, crawled and walked through Aspfjordgrotta. For many hours we experienced a new world, surrounded by marble in both open and narrower corridors. Ivar's professionalism, knowledge and customer service were invaluable. A powerful experience. Dice roll 6! (Original) Anbefaler grottetur til Aspfjordgrotta på det sterkeste. Vi var en gruppe på fem som fikk gleden av å oppleve marmorgrotta sammen med guide Ivar. Ingen av oss hadde vært på grottevandring tidligere, men turen ga mersmak og flere av oss ønsker nå å dra på flere turer i fremtiden. Ivar sørget for at alle følte seg trygge mens vi rappellerte, krøp og vandret gjennom Aspfjordgrotta. I mange timer fikk vi oppleve en ny verden, omringet av marmor i både åpne og trangere korridorer. Profesjonaliteten, kunnskapen og kundeservicen til Ivar var uvurderlig. En mektig opplevelse. Terningkast 6!

(Translated by Google) Thank you so much for a fantastic trip on Hamarøyskaftet in beautiful autumn weather. Short climbing stages, nice breaks in the mountains and beautiful views from the top. Had been looking forward to the downturn, and the rappelling down met expectations. Would have liked to have had twice as long firewood down again 😊. The trip is recommended (Original) Tusen takk for en fantastisk tur på Hamarøyskaftet i nydelig høstvær. Korte klatre etapper, fine pauseplasser i fjellet og nydelig utsikt fra toppen. Hadde gleda meg til nedturen, og rappeleringen ned innfridde forventningene. Skulle gjerne hatt dobbel så lang ved ned igjen 😊. Turen anbefales

(Translated by Google) Guided tour to Stetind Arranged the trip at short notice - quickly clarified with space and information. Johan was good at guiding a nice pace on the way up. Good information in advance of climbing and not least got us safely up and down. (Original) Guidet tur til Stetind Arrangert turen på kort varsel - kjapt avklart med plass og informasjon. Johan var flink til å guide fin tempo på tur opp. God informasjon i forkant av klatring og ikke minst fikk oss trygt opp og ned.

It's a nice Place with smart and friendly People..You'll get a lot of informations about lax.

Ivar organised a wonderful snowshoeing trip for us. He answered very fast and assisted us, while the cruise ship arrived one day early as we planned. It was no problem for him to change the trip. For us it was a great experience! We're very thankful!

While sailing on the Viking Star in Norway January 2020, 20 Viking guests booked this boat trip to visit Salstrumen because the Viking-offered excursions to Salstrumen were sold out. We each paid 1750 NOK or $190 US dollars per person (roughly $400/couple). Due to sea conditions the Viking Star captain had to skip the Bodo port and stay at Sea. (This followed the Hurtigruten event that occurred 1 week prior while trying to dock in Bodo; google the horrific video Jan.21, 2020), as well as the high sea disaster on Viking Sea in March 2019 (you can also good that) enroute to Bodo. Due to the missed port January 30, 2020, all 20 guests lost the full $200 excursion and this tour company kept the entire $4000. I understand they need to pay the staff who planned on guiding our boats but they could have reimbursed 50% since they did not waste boat fuel or mileage on the boat. Additionally, I’m sure they were able to rebook some regular tourists on land to fill or now vacant spaces. It was not a decision to “skip” the excursion, it was a safety decision made by the captain for his 907 souls onboard the Viking Star. I’m sure this tour company does great tours but I would just keep weather in mind before booking this as a cruise guest. There is always a risk of a port cancellation based on unforeseen weather conditions. At least Viking cruise will reimburse the guests who booked directly from them and missed the excursion. It’s a lesson learned for us and we will continue to communicate this message for future guests to consider.

Our trip with Jørgen to Hamarøyskaftet was awesome, I highly recommend it!!

When I was in Norway back in 2019, the Salmon center was the hoghlight of the holiday. I cannot put our excitement into words, this is somethung else. You have to put this on your bucket list.

Ivar was awesome. The dog tour was worth every penny. The tour has a lot more than the website says. We went to an overlook of Bodo, Ivar showed us a few hikes that we could do while in town. Then he took us to a local bakery, then Saltstraumen, then local fishing spots. We then drove into the Fjord towards the mountains. That was a stunning drive into the mountains. We then met Lisa and her husband in their lovely house where we first met the dogs. They were great. The dogs are extremely well taken care of. They're all very healthy, happy and ready to go. They got us to the starting point of the dog tour, which was not 5 minutes away from their house. Half the group started the tour, while Ivar and I walked to a nearby river and made a fire. They also had a tent with a potbelly oven in it, which was incredibly cozy and warm. I joined the second round, which was around 5.5 mi (~9 km) in a little less than an hour. The run was amazing. The landscape was incredible. After the dog run we hangout in the tent with homemade Norwegian cake, baked by Lisa herself. On the way back in town we saw some moose, which was great. Anyway, the whole day was incredible and I had a ton of fun. Thanks Ivar! Hope to be back and check some of the other adventures out.

Very small exhibit that seems to mostly be pro salmon farm propaganda. Which isn't a bad thing to have propaganda about I guess.

(Translated by Google) Unique exhibition, objects from the Stone Age, with Brummeren, Norway's oldest "musical instrument". You can experience how people saved themselves here in Straumen, in the near and distant past.

This is a case of small is beautiful. Monika the tour guide was helpful in explaining all about salmon farming in the Norwegian Fjiords. Learn why Antibiotic feeding has fallen below 1% now. Why the breeding nets are placed in selected locations around the Coastal areas etc. View handcrafted purses, wallets, handbags and even baby bootees made from salmon leather. Amazing colours; Intriguing indeed. Most appreciated tour. Bodo is worth visiting again next year.

Exhibit center for exploring how fish are sustainably farmed in Norway. Stopped here during a short layover from the Hurtigruten. Very informative, plenty of great visuals including video. We had a lovely guide led tour, learned a lot, and dispelled many misconceptions I had about fish farming. If you are at all interested in the salmon industry in Norway, definitely a required stop.
