Day 3

Travel to Sognefjord Region

Breakfast at the hotel. This morning, you take the train west towards the fjords. This beautiful journey is one of the most scenic train rides in the world, passing through the countryside, mountains and the high plateau of Hardangervidda before arriving in Myrdal. From there, you board the famous Flåmsbana, a small train with an impressive change in altitude that takes you down to Flåm, nestled in the hollow of the fjord. It winds its way between the mountains and ice-blue torrents, offering breathtaking landscapes along the way. Here you are in Flåm, on the shores of the Sognefjord. Check in at your hotel in the heart of the fjords. Dinner and overnight at Fretheim Hotel or similar. In the evening, don't hesitate to discover the Ægir Micro-Brewery, set in a warm atmosphere inspired by Viking architecture. This brewery is one of the best in the country and has won several awards internationally.

The last part of the cruise takes you through the Bergen archipelago. Arrive in Bergen, the beautiful capital of the fjords, whose centre is a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. Dinner at your own arrangement. Overnight at Scandic Ørnen or similar.

The programme includes the harbour with its fish market, the Hanseatic city (the Hanseatic League was the merchants' league of northern Germany), and the old quarter "Bryggen" with its well-preserved, colourful wooden houses, as well as the city centre, where you'll have the opportunity to do some shopping in the many shops along the pedestrian streets.

Day 7

Stavanger, Lysefjord Cruise and Preikestolen

Breakfast at the hotel. Discover Stavanger on foot, with a walk through the charming old town and its white wooden houses decorated with flowers.
