The Norway in a Nutshell® experience

This comprehensive package is thoughtfully designed to give you the essence of Fjord Norway, combining the most iconic travel experiences into one seamless adventure.

The Flåm Railway is one of the world's steepest railway lines on normal tracks. As you ascend from the Aurlandsfjord to the high mountains at Myrdal, you'll be greeted with panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, cascading waterfalls and lush valleys. Connect to the Bergen Line, an engineering marvel that that is recognized as one of the most scenic train rides in the world. The train connects the two main cities in Norway (Oslo and Bergen) together.

Another highlight of the experience is a fjord cruise on the Nærøyfjord, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This is your chance to witness the quintessential Norwegian fjord landscape. The dramatic cliffs rising from the water, the cascading waterfalls, and the serene waters of the fjord offer a tranquil yet majestic experience.

Complete your tour with a bus journey through the Nærøy Valley, taking you from Voss to Gudvangen, or vice versa. This part of your adventure offers a close-up view of the stunning terrain, with steep mountainsides, wild rivers and picturesque farms.
