Trafalgar

Meet your Travel Director and fellow travellers over a light welcome supper in Oslo. This hosted gathering offers a relaxed introduction to the people sharing your journey through Norway.

Set in a capital framed by forested hills and the Oslofjord, the evening is an opportunity to settle in and hear what lies ahead. The supper is included in your tour.

Take in Geilo’s mountain setting at the foot of Hallingskarvet and experience the open scenery of the Hardanger Plateau. This included scenic exploration reveals a different side of Norway from its sheltered fjord shores.

Geilo is known as a ski resort, while the plateau’s broad uplands, sparse vegetation and distant peaks convey the scale of the country’s interior. Watch the landscape shift from lakeside country to wide mountain horizons.

View Vøringsfossen, one of Norway’s best-known waterfalls, as its waters plunge towards the Måbødalen valley. The viewpoint offers a striking encounter with the steep terrain at the edge of the Hardanger Plateau.

Listen for the rush of water and look across the deep-cut gorge to see how rivers have shaped this mountain landscape. The waterfall’s dramatic setting makes this an included scenic highlight in its own right.

Visit Hardanger Bygdeysteri, a farmer-owned cheese factory in the fjordside town of Øystese. Discover the local people and production traditions behind its cheeses in a region closely associated with farming and orchard landscapes.

This MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experience connects Norwegian food heritage with responsible production. Spending time at the dairy supports local farmers and the tour’s stated commitment to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.

Admire Hardangerfjord along part of its shoreline and view Steinsdalsfossen, the waterfall highlighted among this tour’s Norwegian sights. Deep blue water, steep slopes and cascading falls give the area its distinctive character.

Often called the ‘Queen of the Fjords’, Hardangerfjord is also known for the communities and orchards along its shores. This included sightseeing brings together the region’s fjord and waterfall scenery without requiring a separate cruise.

Explore Bergen with your Travel Director on an orientation tour of this historic harbour city. Pass the 13th-century Håkon’s Hall and the lively fish market while hearing about Bergen’s seafaring traditions.

Bergen grew wealthy through its links to the Hanseatic trading network, a heritage still visible around its waterfront. The tour introduces the city’s wooden streets, working harbour atmosphere and centuries-long connection to the sea.

Join the Øvre-Eide family for a Be My Guest dinner on their livestock farm near Bergen. Share a meal hosted by a fifth-generation farming family and gain a personal introduction to rural Norwegian life.

The property has been a working farm since the 1500s, giving the evening a connection to centuries of local agricultural heritage. Conversation around the table makes this locally hosted meal distinct from a standard hotel dinner.

See Sognefjord, the ‘King of the Fjords’, while travelling through western Norway’s dramatic fjord country. Take in the scale of the waterway and the steep mountain landscapes that frame it.

Norway’s longest and deepest fjord reaches far inland from the coast, linking small shoreline communities with a vast glacial landscape. This included scenic experience focuses on the views from the tour route; a cruise is not specified as part of it.

See the Bøyabreen glacier, an outlet of Jostedalsbreen, from the surrounding landscape. Its ice descends towards the valley, offering a close visual contrast with the green slopes below.

Jostedalsbreen is continental Europe’s largest glacier, and Bøyabreen makes the immense icefield’s presence tangible. This included viewing stop offers a chance to consider the glacial forces behind Norway’s carved valleys and fjords.

View Lom Stave Church, a 12th-century timber church in a mountain village near Jotunheimen. Look for its distinctive wooden construction and carved dragon figures; the itinerary also highlights runic inscriptions and painted details.

Stave churches are rare survivors of medieval Scandinavian craftsmanship. Lom’s church offers an opportunity to see how Christian worship and older decorative traditions came together in Norway. Interior entry is not specified as part of this viewing stop.

Explore Oslo with a Local Specialist, seeing Akershus fortress above the harbour, the waterfront Opera House and the 19th-century Royal Palace. These landmarks trace the capital’s story from medieval stronghold to contemporary cultural centre.

Visit Vigeland Sculpture Park to walk among Gustav Vigeland’s expressive figures. Their depictions of people at different ages and stages of life make the park a distinctive open-air encounter with Norwegian art.

Gather for a farewell dinner with your Travel Director and fellow travellers in Oslo. This hosted meal provides a dedicated occasion to share favourite moments from the journey.

Conversation can range from Bergen’s harbour traditions to the scale of Norway’s glaciers and fjords. Unlike a routine evening meal, the included group gathering marks the close of your shared travel experience.

Ride the Flåm Railway on an Optional Experience through western Norway’s steep mountain scenery. The railway is celebrated for its dramatic gradients and views of valleys, waterfalls and highland terrain.

Its engineering brings a compact cross-section of the fjord landscape into view from the train. This excursion is at additional cost and bookable on tour; the precise route and operating details will be confirmed locally.

Cruise Geirangerfjord for a water-level perspective on its steep mountainsides, cascading waterfalls and snow-capped peaks. The boat offers a different way to appreciate the fjord’s sheer scale from shore-based views.

This UNESCO-listed fjord is renowned for waterfalls that tumble down near-vertical rock faces. A cruise is suggested in the itinerary but not identified as an inclusion, so treat it as an additional-cost experience bookable on tour, subject to local availability.

Explore Trollstigen on an Optional Experience along one of Norway’s best-known mountain roads. Its eleven hairpin bends wind through a steep landscape of rocky peaks and deep valleys.

The route is valued as much for its mountain views as for its remarkable road engineering. This excursion is at additional cost and bookable on tour; access and the exact route depend on local road and weather conditions.
