Sun Deck
For the 2013 season, the sun deck underwent a major renovation. Indoors, it’s now winterized with underfloor heating and can seat 100–120 guests, offering a great view of the surroundings. Outdoors, there’s room for just as many. There are two bars on the sun deck – one inside and one outside.
Bridge Deck
The bridge deck is M/S Trubaduren’s hidden gem. Not everyone finds their way up here. Located at the top of the ship, it naturally offers the best view – both of the archipelago and of the show, on nights when performances are held outdoors. You can also greet the captain and see how the ship is steered.
