Bergen Explorer Trips

Absolutely wonderful experience. Paula our guide was top notch. She did everything to perfection. The itinerary gave us a look at Norway from so many perspectives and I joined this trip because the focus was on Norway followed by quick visits to Copenhagen and Stockholm. And the absolute best part was that we travelled by bus, train and cruise ship. We did not take any airline flights so saw the country side as well as the destinations. Bergen Norway is an absolute gem that many people miss if they start their trip in Oslo. Once again Explore a perfect 10 out of 10. Thank you as always.

This was my first trip with Explore and it’s definitely whetted my appetite for more! A wonderful experience and so relaxing to take so many train and boat trips across the eight days without having any stress about tickets, connections, itineraries, etc etc. The leader was excellent and she held everything together completely calmly and knowledgeably.

This trip was amazing, definitely recommend. The Fjords of Norway were incredible and vast; and both Demark and Sweden provided rich European Culture. Our trip leader Hannah was amazing - her extensive knowledge of the area helped enrich the experience. This was my first trip with Top Deck; and my first solo trip overseas. Hannah was kind and caring and gave me extra support; this really helped boost my confidence. I'm definitely booking another Top Deck experience!!

The first part of this trip (in Norway) is excellent but the second part with just one day/night in Denmark and two in Sweden seems rather rushed for all of the traveling involved. Unfortunately we also suffered from a couple of 2/3 hour train delays which meant not getting back to the hotel until 10.00/11.30pm on two separate days. Spectacular scenery in Norway, friendly people and good food everywhere. Our tour leader Maria was exceptional - great local knowledge and lots of suggestions for meals and destinations for free time visits.

Another excellent trip with Explore. I’ve travelled with other companies but keep returning to Explore as their ‘formula’ suits me best: interesting places, small groups of like-minded people often travelling alone and excellent value.

The hotels were very nice, and well-equipped. My favorite was in Copenhagen; I would add 1-2 days to this itinerary: 1 extra day in Oslo, and definitely 1 day in Copenhagen…..it is needed, especially since the train times were long getting there.
