Amsterdam City & Canals (Tour A)

Norway In A Nutshell (Tour B)
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. -

Fjord Kayaking (Tour F)
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. -

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.

Briksdal Glacier (Tour B)
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. -

Arctic City Tour (Tour A)
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 -
Introduction to Tromso (Tour B)
TROMSO, NORWAY
