Highlights

Oslo: Explore Oslo with your Local Specialist, viewing the 19th-century Royal Palace and the medieval Akershus fortress that guarded the harbour. Continue through the city centre to see Karl Johans gate and the Stortinget Parliament building before reaching the Opera House and Bjørvika waterfront, where former docklands have been redeveloped into a cultural district.

Oslo: Visit Frogner Park to see Gustav Vigeland’s permanent sculpture installation, with more than 200 bronze and granite works arranged along bridges, terraces and the Monolith plateau.

Hardangervidda: Follow the road across Hardangervidda, one of Europe’s largest mountain plateaus, with open moorland, scattered lakes and distant peaks, linking Norway’s western fjords with inland valleys.

Flam Railway: Ride the Flåm Railway, a 20-kilometre branch line linking Flåm on Aurlandsfjord with the Bergen Railway. Built in the mid-20th century, it climbs from sea level to 866 m (2,841 ft) with gradients as steep as 1:18 and a series of tunnels, giving clear views of the valley, river and waterfalls.

Bergen: Explore Bergen with your Local Specialist, tracing its history from an 11th-century royal settlement to a key Hanseatic trading port. View the fish market, Haakon’s Hall and the timber warehouses of Bryggen, where German merchants once handled stockfish and goods moving along North Sea and Baltic routes.

Stavanger: Fjord hop from Bergen to Stavanger.

Kristiansand: During your orientation with your Travel Director, walk the city centre and see the Dom Kirke and Nupen Fountain.

Kristiansand: Sail across the Skagerrak as you cross from Kristiansand to Hirsthals.

Aarhus: Discover Denmark’s history, culture and identity across the centuries during an included visit to this museum. You’ll explore remarkable finds from prehistory and the Viking Age presented with thoughtful storytelling within the museum’s striking hillside setting.

Copenhagen: Visit Tivoli Gardens, opened in 1843 as a public pleasure garden beside Copenhagen’s central station. Walk the landscaped paths between pavilions, theatres and restaurants and see historic rides, including one of the world’s oldest wooden roller coasters, still operating with a brakeman on board.

Odense: Be enchanted by the tales of Hans Christian Andersen's life when you visit the museum dedicated to his life and works.

Copenhagen: Join your Local Specialist to understand the city through its key sites, from the Little Mermaid statue on the harbourfront to Christiansborg Palace, seat of the Danish parliament. You’ll view Rosenborg Castle, Amalienborg Palace and walk the 17th-century Nyhavn waterfront 

Itinerary

You’ll travel through Scandinavia by fjord, rail and road. The Flåm Railway sweeps through tunnels, steep valleys and the mountain pass to Myrdal, before Bergen’s Fish Market fills the air with the sound of traders and the scent of the day’s catch. On Lysefjord, you cruise beneath cliffs carved by ice and time, with Pulpit Rock rising 2,000 feet above the water. Across Denmark’s Jutland Peninsula and on to the island of Fyn, the Hans Christian Andersen House traces the writer’s life, loves and travels. Copenhagen adds one last fairy-tale note as you stand next to the Little Mermaid statue and look out across the harbour at the rippling sea.
