Exploring The Hardangerfjord
BERGEN, NORWAY
Our excursion to the Hardangerfjord – one of Norway’s most popular fjords, with beautiful fruit orchards lining the sides and reflections of the magnificent mountains on the crystal clear water – begins at the pier in Bergen, when we board our coach. -
Birdwatching By Boat at Runde
ALESUND, NORWAY
Our local guide will take us very close, in good weather as close as just a few metres from the rock. We should see large groups of puffins and plenty of kittiwakes. The puffins, easily recognisable by their colourful bill, nest in holes in the rock. -
Giske & Godoy
ALESUND, NORWAY
From Giske we drive to the island of Godøy, with the pretty fishing village of Alnes facing the Atlantic Ocean. We take a short break at the Alnes Lighthouse and refreshments will be served in the nearby café. -
City & Surroundings
ALESUND, NORWAY
This tour shows us parts of the splendid town and takes us to the breathtaking viewpoint on Mount Aksla, for the best panoramic view of this spectacular scenery. We will also enjoy a drive along the Borgundfjord, through the suburbs, to the bustling old trading centre of Borgund, site of the Sunnmøre Museum. -
Introduction to Bergen
BERGEN, NORWAY
Surrounded by seven mountains, a short distance from the country’s wildest and scenic fjords – encapsulating the best that Mother Nature has to offer – Bergen is Fjord Norway’s capital. -
Lysoen Island
BERGEN, NORWAY
Passing the city park and lake, our tour continues south through Bergen’s attractive suburbs. On Nordås Lake we can see the royal residence, ‘Gamlehaugen’. Fana Mountain offers us a superb view, though only 230 metres (755 feet) above sea level. -
Grieg's Bergen
BERGEN, NORWAY
As we explore the modest house, we will wonder at the significance of the notes that once filled these rooms. The walls whisper stories of melodies that sprang from the heart and hands of an incredibly talented man. -
Norway In A Nutshell
FLAM, NORWAY
We wind our way up to the Hardangervidda Mountain plateau through several tunnels, over bridges and past thundering waterfalls. Narrow paths twist up the mountainsides, used by only the deftest goats, and beautiful vistas of the valley unfold below. At Myrdal, we change trains and head to Voss. -
Norway Old And New
BERGEN, NORWAY
Our tour will show us how the way people live in this part of Norway has changed dramatically during the last century. We will see this change vividly evident throughout the beautiful outskirts of Bergen in the fjord, lake and coastal districts. -
Scenic Drive to Osterbo Mountain Lodge
FLAM, NORWAY
We travel by coach from Flåm along the fjord, a branch of the lovely Sognefjord, to Aurland – a small yet thriving village, with a 13th century Gothic style church in the centre. From here we journey inland along the salmon river Aurland, past Vassbygda Lake. -
Fjord Kayaking
FLAM, NORWAY
This is a unique opportunity for a closer encounter with the Sognefjord! Figuring on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, the Nærøyfjord is a spectacular fjord arm – part of the mighty Sognefjord – so narrow we will almost be able to touch the mountains on either side. -
Geilo & The Flam Railway
FLAM, NORWAY
We will start ascending the “Goat’s Back Mountain” from which we have breathtaking views of the Aurlandsfjord and its surrounding mountains. Proceeding through several tunnels we reach the highest point on this road – 1,158 metres (3,800 feet) above fjord level. -
Fjordland Scenery
OLDEN, NORWAY
Driving along the fjord, passing small farms and orchards, we start climbing towards Utvik Mountain, where a photo stop is made at a viewpoint to take in the wonderful panorama. Down on the other side of the mountain, we pass through the very green Våtedalen (‘the wet valley’), a grazing site for sheep and goats. -
Briksdal Glacier
OLDEN, NORWAY
Our excursion starts from the charming village of Olden, where we pass the church dating back to 1759 and, further up the valley, a red painted church from the early 1900’s – a gift from an American who settled in the village. He was a collector of Norwegian antiques and his home is today a museum. -
Jostedal Centre & Videseter
OLDEN, NORWAY
From Olden we travel through Stryn, the administrative centre of the area, and follow the salmon rich Stryn River. We drive up to the crystal clear Stryn Lake, where we shall visit the Jostedal Glacier National Park Centre. -
Kjenndalen Glacier & Lovatnet Lake Cruise
OLDEN, NORWAY
Departing the quayside by coach, we travel along the fjord until we arrive at the picturesque village, and popular yet peaceful resort, of Loen. Loen has it all: fjord, fertile land, views of mountains and glaciers, and the Lovatnet Lake. From Loen we continue to Kjenndalen Valley for our first stop. -
Fjord Fishing
OLDEN, NORWAY
We shall join the 10 metre (30 feet) boat Isabella, chartered especially for us today, directly from our ship. Our experienced local skipper will steer our course on a short cruise to the bottom of the fjord arm at Loen, to one of the best fishing spots. -
Scenic Drive To Old Valley Farm
OLDEN, NORWAY
This tour offers us the opportunity to sample Norwegian agriculture, nature and local culture. Our trip takes us through scenic Olden Valley and ends up at Aabrekk Farm, where the lady of the house, Signe, and her husband Rune welcome us. -
Flightseeing By Seaplane
ULVIK, NORWAY
This tour is for those of us searching for a dramatic way to view the utterly amazing fjordland scenery. Characterised as ‘Norway’s fruit garden’, the village of Ulvik is a well known tourist centre.
