About

Beautiful and majestic fjord landscapes, train travel through some of Norway’s most powerful and beautiful scenery, a taste of charm, history and maritime life at two of Norway’s most picturesque coastal ports, and an opportunity to explore the capital Oslo – a captivating city with its special combination of city life and fjord surroundings.

Experience the magnificent Lysefjord, the Pulpit Rock (Preikestolen), wild and beautiful coastal scenery, the popular ‘Norway in a nutshell©’ trip, and three of Norway’s largest cities: Oslo, Bergen and Stavanger.

You should experience it because...

You will be captivated by the beauty of the 42km long ‘light fjord’, as deep as the mountains are high, and Pulpit Rock (Preikestolen), one of Norway’s most famous tourist attractions, that climbs 604 metres above the valley of the fjord. And you’ll be blown away by the charming and historic ‘wooden’ coastal cities of Bergen and Stavanger, and Norway’s cosmopolitan capital of Oslo.

Spring is from May to mid-June is when the scenery in Norway is at its most spectacular, with trees and flowers waking to life,snow in the mountains .Orchards of flowering fruit trees along the Hardangerfjord in May are images of paradise.
