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.
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.
ALESUND, NORWAY
The community of Giske consists of four islands that are connected to the mainland by bridges and a long sub-sea tunnel. We shall explore two of the islands today – the ‘Saga Island’ of Giske, and picturesque Godøy.
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.
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.
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’.
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.
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.
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.
HONNINGSVAG, NORWAY
The course taken will be suited to the day’s weather.During this tour we will experience distinctive sub-arctic nature, bird life, historic sights, abandoned fishing communities, a lighthouse and, with luck, we might spot seals or a whale, possibly even a majestic white-tailed eagle.
LEKNES, LOFOTEN ISLANDS, NORWAY
Our excursion starts in Leknes, from where we cross underneath the narrow sound between Lilleeid and Napp to Flakstadøy. We proceed to the idyllic fishing village of Nusfjord – protected by UNESCO – where we can study the architecture of the colourful fishermen’s dwellings.
LEKNES, LOFOTEN ISLANDS, NORWAY
Departing from the landing stage in Leknes, we pass through this administrative centre of Vestvågøy Island ¬– skirting its little airport. All the while we have the Himmeltindan Mountains in our view, the tallest on the island at approximately 1,000 metres (3,000 feet) above sea level.
LEKNES, LOFOTEN ISLANDS, NORWAY
The Lofoten Islands appear to be a wall of mountains, dramatically rising from the ocean. Yet within the valleys, and even the fishing ports, there is lush, green vegetation.
SKJOLDEN, NORWAY
We will travel through the Jotunheimen National Park with its dramatic alpine peaks, glaciers and waterfalls. The Sognefjell mountain road is a national tourist route and the highest mountain crossing in Northern Europe.
SKJOLDEN, NORWAY
This short trip to Jostedalen takes us from Skjolden, along the fjord to Gaupne, then through the narrow Jostedalen valley and all the way up to the Nigardsbreen. We shall park very close to the glacier, which means a fantastic view and great possibilities for photographs.
SKJOLDEN, NORWAY
This breathtaking trip takes us through the narrow, lush Jostedalen valley to the heart of the blue ice world in the Jostedalsbreen National Park. We will visit Breheimsenteret, an information centre for the glacier and the Jostedalsbreen National Park.
SKJOLDEN, NORWAY
Today we will drive along the fjord of Luster and make a short stop to see the beautiful Feigumfossen waterfall. Continuing, we travel along the Romantic Road to the Urnes Stave Church, which is Norway’s oldest stave church and is included on UNESCO’s World Heritage List.
TROMSO, NORWAY
Our sightseeing tour of the city starts from the pier, passing the campus of the northernmost university in the world, and the Planetarium – resembling a rocket launch pad! We make our way to the Tromsø Museum for a look at the interesting zoological, geological and ethnological exhibitions
TROMSO, NORWAY
Leaving the pier, our tour of this interesting area starts in the centre – a charming blend of old and new, with modest wooden houses set next to contemporary architecture. We pass Tromsø Church, one of the largest wooden churches in the north, before we head off around the island.
TROMSO, NORWAY
This tour takes us to the environment centre, Polaria. The exterior alone is fascinating; the building resembles huge blocks of ice thrown together. Inside, various exhibitions present polar areas and the Barents region, and we will be shown a spectacular widescreen film
TROMSO, NORWAY
The Tromsø Wilderness Centre is located approximately 20 kilometres (12 miles) from the city. Here we will enjoy an exciting programme of events including a chance to meet some of the 130 huskies.
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.
ANDALSNES, NORWAY
We board our coach at the quay and drive along the River Rauma, a favourite with anglers for more than a century. To our left is Mount Romsdalshorn (1,550 metres) and to our right is Trolltindane (Troll Peaks of approximately 1,800 metres).
LEITH, SCOTLAND
From Leith we travel into Edinburgh, Scotland’s magnificent and historic Capital City, which has a dramatic setting, perched on a series of extinct volcanoes and rocky crags.
