Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled.
(Even when we got lost)
The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative.
Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities.
Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.

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.
Copenhagen: Join your Local Expert 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
Stockholm (Solna): Explore Stockholm with your Local Expert, moving from Gamla Stan, where many streets and buildings date from the 13th–17th centuries, to later civic and waterfront districts. You’ll see Stockholm Cathedral and view a capital planned across 14 islands, established as Sweden’s political centre from the 17th century.
Stockholm: Visit Stockholm City Hall, completed in the early 20th century in National Romantic style. You’ll step into the brick-built Blue Hall, site of the Nobel Banquet, then continue to the Golden Hall, where mosaics made from glass and gold leaf depict episodes from Swedish history and mythology.
Falun: Join your Travel Director for an orientation of Falun, home to its famous copper mine. You’ll view the vast mine crater that sits beside the town and see how historic workers’ housing and streets developed around this industrial site, now recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage landscape.
Salen: Get your bearings in one of Sweden’s key alpine resort areas and the starting point of the long-distance Vasaloppet ski race. Your Travel Director will highlight how the village and its facilities serve winter sports and year-round outdoor activities in the surrounding mountains.
Lillehammer: Join your Travel Director for an orientation of Lillehammer, set above Lake Mjøsa. You’ll see the town centre and Olympic landmarks from the 1994 Winter Games, and learn how this former market town developed into a hub for winter sports and outdoor life in Gudbrandsdalen.
Lom: View Lom stave church, one of Norway’s largest surviving stave churches, with origins around 1158. You’ll see its tiered wooden structure, carved portals and later extensions that show how the building adapted over centuries while retaining its medieval timber frame.
Geiranger: Join your Travel Director for an orientation of Geiranger, set at the head of a UNESCO-listed fjord. You’ll note how the harbour, hillside roads, viewpoints and walking paths connect the village with the steep surrounding landscape.
Geiranger: Cruise along Geirangerfjord, part of a UNESCO World Heritage area known for its narrow channel, high walls and waterfalls such as the Seven Sisters. From the water you’ll see abandoned mountain farms, forested slopes of birch and pine and may spot seabirds, porpoises or white-tailed eagles in the fjord.
Fjaerland: Stop at the viewpoint for Bøyabreen, an outlet of the Jostedalsbreen icefield. From here you’ll see the glacier tongue, moraines and exposed rock, with clear evidence of past ice levels and recent retreat that illustrates how glaciers advance and shrink over time.
Leikanger: Join your Travel Director for an orientation of Leikanger on the shores of Sognefjord. See the village church, waterfront and surrounding orchards, and learn how the area’s mild fjord climate supports fruit growing and small-scale farming alongside tourism.
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 Expert, 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.
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.
Oslo: Explore Oslo with your Local Expert, 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.
