Begin in the city of Bergen, taking you back over 1000 years, now where past and present intertwine. Nature is only minutes away, where a walk on marked trails through the forest high just above the city is tranquil & breathtaking. You can quickly return to the bustle of the city, where a variety of museums featuring art & history await you, the fish market features the daily catch, and shopping, restaurants and pubs beckon.
Your journey takes you to the Sognefjord region, Norway’s longest fjord, with a network of smaller fjords branching off of it. Its lifeline is the public express boat and ferry system, connecting with the national rail and bus service, an efficient, long used tradition connecting the villages and transporting visitors. The nature is breathtaking, with towering mountains, forests and deep blue fjords offering a smorgasbord of adventures for anyone!
Travel by train to the village of Flam, where there are opportunities for fjord kayaking, hiking and mountain biking down the stunning Flam valley. Participate in an exciting Fjord Safari, a fjord cruise in a 20 passenger boat - see wildlife, small villages and remote farms up close, with frequent stops and commentary on the natural beauty and history of the area. Continue by fjord express boat to the idyllic fjord village of Balestrand for more spectacular mountain hiking, fjord kayaking & time to explore the village and its art galleries. Your Glacier Adventure takes you to the Jostedal Glacier center for a tour of the Glacier Museum, followed by an exhilarating guided glacier walk on an arm of Northern Europe’s largest glacier. End with a stay at Solstrand Hotel situated with a breathtaking view of the Bjornefjorden, offering a state of the art Wellness Center with a lap swimming pool, sauna, steam bath, and Jacuzzi and a variety of spa treatments available – the perfect way end this fjord adventure!
