Similar to our "Realm of the Polar Bear" tour, but with three additional days of exploring. Scour the ice and tundra in search of the elusive polar bear and encounter even more icebergs, glaciers, and unique wildlife than you ever thought possible on this 11-day expedition. Search for lounging seals, grazing reindeer, and colonies of birds under the midnight sun.
From close-up encounters with icebergs and glaciers to the region’s plentiful wildlife, this is a voyage of non-stop highlights. Always on the lookout for wildlife that live in this polar wilderness, you’ll explore this landscape not only by ship but also on foot and via Zodiac. Roaming polar bears, lounging seals, grazing reindeer, and colonies of birds all co-exist in this harsh land we dare only to explore a few months of the year.
Embrace the spirit of ‘friluftsliv’ (Norway’s beloved outdoor lifestyle) on this immersive week-long adventure hiking, biking and kayaking through fjord country. Take the world-famous Flam railway, then cycle beside glacial streams, goat farms and waterfalls. Spend a day paddling the glassy waters of Naeroyfjord in the UNESCO World Heritage park, exploring corners that only tiny boats can access. Then, hike in the mountains from small villages to viewpoints high above the fjords for some time away from the crowds. Starting and ending in Bergen, where world-class restaurants and a walkable historic wharf awaits, you’ll experience Norway just as the locals do – spending nights in cosy cabins and indulging in locally sourced food from the fjords and surrounding farms.

Amazing discovery of the fjords via hiking, cruise, ferry rides and mini-bus travel. The accommodations at Nes Gard and Fjaerland Fjordstove Hotel added to the spectacular hiking.

Join us to hike their most beautiful trails with an expert local guide, summiting peaks for a sea eagle’s view over the landscape. To make this trip extra special, we begin in the equally spectacular Vesterålen archipelago before crossing over to the Lofoten Islands, where we sleep in rorbuer, converted fishermen’s cabins, right by the water.
