Norway
7 nights from the capital to the Flåm Railway and the UNESCO fjords
We designed this journey to show the best of western Norway without exhausting travel days. It starts on Oslo's waterfront, then flies to Bergen, from where you spend a full day on the Nærøyfjord and the Flåm Railway. You then fly to Ålesund and drive privately to Geiranger for three nights, to see the fjord from the water and from the peaks.
You stay in chosen hotels on the water or facing the fjord, with private cars and drivers, and the cruises and trains booked in advance. We arrange halal meals in Oslo, and fish and vegetarian choices for the rest of the journey.
The price is on request and depends on the season, the number of travellers and the rooms. Nights in Tromsø or Lofoten can be added for the Arctic north.
Day 1
Meet and greet at Oslo Gardermoen and a private transfer (about 45 minutes) to your hotel on the waterfront. A free evening to walk the harbour.
Day 2
A day with a driver: the Opera House roof, MUNCH and Akershus Fortress, then a ferry to Bygdøy and the Fram Museum. Halal lunch in the city.
Day 3
A short flight (about 50 minutes) to Bergen. In the afternoon, Bryggen and the fish market, then the Fløibanen up Mount Fløyen before sunset.
