rondreis noorwegen

Through fjords and mountains to the heart of Norway

11 Days - 10 Nights

Discover Norway at its most authentic on an 11-day journey from Bergen to Oslo. Between deep fjords, snow-capped peaks and charming villages, the essence of Scandinavia unfolds. Cruise through calm waters, drive along panoramic mountain roads and embrace the rhythm of Nordic life. Along the way, moments of adventure meet serene stillness, from kayaking between fjords to meeting huskies and exploring vibrant cities. A journey where nature and simplicity go hand in hand, the Caractère way.

Day 1: Arrival in Bergen

Upon arrival in Bergen, you’ll be greeted by your driver and transferred to your hotel. The city lies beautifully nestled between seven mountains and exudes an instantly lively charm. Stroll through the historic Bryggen district with its wooden façades, taste fresh fish at the market or enjoy your first glimpse of the fjords from the quay. Bergen is the perfect introduction to Norway: compact, welcoming and surrounded by nature.

Day 2: Mostraumen Fjord Cruise & Mount Fløien

Today you’ll discover why Bergen is known as the gateway to the fjords. During the Mostraumen Fjord Cruise, you’ll sail along the 27-kilometre-long Osterfjord, between steep cliffs and waterfalls plunging directly into the sea. The boat sails right up to a waterfall to collect fresh mountain water, a small but refreshing tradition.

In the afternoon, take the Fløibanen funicular, which takes you to the top of Mount Fløien in just a few minutes. From 320 metres above sea level, enjoy sweeping views of the city, the islands and the surrounding fjords. Walk along forest trails, breathe in the fresh mountain air and treat yourself to a cinnamon bun at the cosy hilltop café.

Day 3: From Bergen to Flåm

After breakfast, leave Bergen and drive inland toward Flåm, at the end of the Aurlandsfjord. The route winds through green valleys, tunnels and mountain passes, offering countless views of fjords and lakes. When you arrive, one of Norway’s most beautiful panoramas awaits: the Aurlandsfjord, framed by steep cliffs. Take a short walk through the village or along the water’s edge, time seems to slow down here.

Day 4: Flåmsbana – Scenic Train Ride through the Mountains

Today features one of Norway’s highlights: the Flåmsbana Railway. This panoramic train journey takes you from sea level in Flåm to the mountain station of Myrdal, 867 metres above sea level. Along the way, you’ll pass through twenty tunnels, waterfalls and deep valleys. At the impressive Kjosfossen Waterfall, the train stops briefly: a perfect moment for photos and the powerful sound of roaring water. The scenery is so breathtaking that many travellers choose to ride the route twice.

Day 5: Kayaking on the Aurlandsfjord

Experience the fjord from the water during a guided three-hour kayak tour. After a short introduction, paddle across the calm waters, passing old farms and grassy slopes that descend straight into the fjord. Your guide shares stories about the region’s Viking traces, ancient burial mounds and life in these remote valleys. The pace is gentle, suitable for everyone, and offers a unique way to experience the fjord: close, quiet and deeply impressive.

Day 6: Onward to Hemsedal

After a final breakfast overlooking the fjord, drive toward Hemsedal, a mountain village about 625 metres above sea level. The road winds through valleys and along twisting passes where the landscape becomes ever wilder. Hemsedal is a year-round destination: a popular ski resort in winter and a paradise for hikers, cyclists and nature lovers in summer. Upon arrival, take time to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Day 7: Husky Experience on Wheels

Today brings a special adventure: a husky ride on wheels. Your guide drives the cart while you sit back and enjoy the mountain scenery and fresh air. After the ride, spend time with the dogs , their enthusiasm is contagious.

Day 8: Mountain Cart Adventure

In the afternoon, an active and playful experience awaits: Mountain Carting. These sturdy three-wheelers without pedals but with powerful brakes are designed for safe downhill rides with maximum control. Ride along wide mountain paths overlooking the valley, great fun for all ages. Afterwards, unwind by a lake or take a peaceful walk through the surrounding landscape.

Day 9: From Hemsedal to Oslo

After several days in nature, drive to Oslo, Norway’s charming capital. On the way, the scenery changes from rugged mountain passes to gentle forests and lakes. Once in the city, explore at your own pace: stroll through the modern Aker Brygge district, admire the architecture of the Opera House, or visit the renewed Munch Museum. Oslo radiates creativity and elegance, with fjord views everywhere you look.

Day 10: Free Day in Oslo

Today is yours to design. Shop along Karl Johans Gate, take a boat trip among the islands of the fjord, or visit the sculpture park at Vigeland Park. Art lovers can explore the National Museum or one of Oslo’s many design galleries. In the evening, sample contemporary Norwegian cuisine in one of the city’s elegant restaurants, a stylish end to your journey.

Day 11: Return Home

After breakfast, a private transfer takes you to Oslo Airport for your return flight. As the fjord fades into the distance, you leave behind a land that breathes peace, space and authenticity: a journey of nature, simplicity and Scandinavian charm.
