Itinerary/Excursions
Day 01
Depart from Newcastle, early evening.
Day 02 - Cruising Lysefjord
Lysefjord, Norway is a true example of breathtaking beauty. Lined by tall mountains and dramatic cliffs, some reaching over 1,000 metres high, Lysefjord was carved into the landscape in the Ice Age movement around 10,000 years ago. Look out for tumbling waterfalls, wildlife and pretty settlements dotted along the shores. On a clear day you will see the famous Preikestolen, a huge 604 metre-high mountain plateau, along with Kjeragbolten, a large rock wedged in a crevice of Mount Kjerag.
Day 03 - Bergen
Seven hills and seven fjords frame Bergen, a city with culture and maritime history. The 900 year-old UNESCO-listed Bryggen Wharf is an amazing place to visit, with its cobbled stairways lined with traditional half-timbered buildings that lead to the waterfront and curious open spaces. Don't miss the chance to ride on the Funicular Railway to the top of Mount Fløyen, where you will see panoramic views of the city.
Day 04 - Flåm
A tiny village on the banks of the Aurlandsfjord, Flåm lies on the deepest and longest fjord in Europe. Picturesque orchards, hamlets, cottages and farmland draw you in. The charming village church has traditionally decorated walls, while the Flåmsbana Railway climbs over 20km, passing through mountain scenery with spectacular sights such as the Kjosfossen Waterfall, crashing 225 metres down rugged cliffs.
Day 05 - Cruising Naeroyfjord
The Nærøyfjord has been voted by National Geographic to be the world's number one national heritage site and is rumoured to be the inspiration behind Frozen's snowy scenes. One of the most dramatic fjords in Europe, the cruise will show you snow-capped mountains, waterfalls and charming traditional farms that cling to beautiful countryside.
Day 06 - Newcastle
Return to Newcastle, England. Before you head home make sure to visit the Tyne Bridge or the Metrocentre, Europe's largest indoor shopping and leisure centre. As you head out into the Northumbrian countryside, don't miss the Angel of the North or Hadrian's Wall.
