After boarding the coach in Flåm our first stop is in Aurland, where we will begin our ascent of the “Goat’s Back Mountain”, from which we have breathtaking views of the Aurlandsfjord and its surrounding mountains.
We continue our journey until we reach Hol with its characteristic red church, before we proceed to Geilo where we will have a buffet lunch at Dr Holm’s Hotel.
In the afternoon we board our train bound for Myrdal and Flåm, taking the Bergen express to Mydral. In Mydral we change trains to go on the spectacular Flåm Railroad. On arrival in Flåm we will rejoin our awaiting ship
DESCRIPTION CORRECT FOR 2010 SCANDINAVIA & BALTIC SEASON
TOUR NOTES: This tour involves little walking – there is a five-minute walk from the restaurant to the train station. We would, however, like to point out that there is a high step to board the train. Not suitable for wheelchair passengers, due to the boarding of the train, and the changing from platform to platform. A warm jumper or jacket is advisable, as we will be travelling at height. The tour may operate in reverse – starting by train, and returning by coach. There are no afternoon refreshments included, so you may wish to bring a bottle of water. Please note that this tour will not operate for the Balmoral calls into Flåm.
All prices are based on operating costs, tariffs and rates of exchange and are subject to change without notice.
