Honningsvag Help, please

I am planning our port day in Honningsvag for our group of 12. We will be booking a 16 pax bus with driver. I've found two companies that offer this. One of them allows for adding a guide for an extra fee but the other does not specify this option. Is a guide necessary? Rental of minibus + driver is for 4 hours but we can add additional time. Should we?

We definitely want to go to the North Cape but where else should we direct our driver if we don't have a guide. Some tours offer a visit to a Sami village- is this possible without a tour? I looked at hiring a guide on our own but haven't found a source for that (TbL had nil offerings for Honningsvag.)

Any assistance will be much appreciated! Thanks!

Danke, MarkK!
Yes, that link is one of the companies under consideration. Admission to the North Cape can be added to the booking and there is option for a guide but pricing isn't specified. The other is Nordkapp Bilservice. We don't get to Honningsvag until September 2025, but I like planning ahead. I do appreciate your restaurant suggestion because we will be wanting crab. From what you write, it sounds like a guide may not be necessary, especially if the North Cape Visitor Center provides information via exhibits there and if the driver can take us to the Sami village. Based on the drive time of 45 minutes, 4 hours ought to be sufficient it seems. 8 of our group is gathering here tomorrow evening and I will share your helpful input with them.
