Tour Description

You’ll travel through Scandinavia by fjord, rail and road. The Flåm Railway sweeps through tunnels, steep valleys and the mountain pass to Myrdal, before Bergen’s Fish Market fills the air with the sound of traders and the scent of the day’s catch. On Lysefjord, you cruise beneath cliffs carved by ice and time, with Pulpit Rock rising 2,000 feet above the water. Across Denmark’s Jutland Peninsula and on to the island of Fyn, the Hans Christian Andersen House traces the writer’s life, loves and travels. Copenhagen adds one last fairy-tale note as you stand next to the Little Mermaid statue and look out across the harbour at the rippling sea.
