NWE-01Aurora Safari
Even though the main goal of this tour is to focus on the beautiful Aurora lights along with unique wilderness of Norway, it has lot more to offer. Like one of our customers said; “I have managed to cover Norway in one trip, by traveling with train, boats, cruises, dogs, snowmobiles and flights, and never got bored”. It is true here you will have the opportunity to try the famous “Norway in Nutshell”, cruise along the magnificent costal line of Norway and as mentioned enjoying our exotic Aurora lights out in Norway’s unique wilderness.

Itinerary
Day 1: The Capital of Norway
Arrival at Gardermoen Airport; meet-and-greet, followed by transfer to your accommodation, situated in the heart of Oslo City. If you arrive early, we recommend getting the Oslo Tourist Pass, which provides free travel on all public transport, free admission to over 25 museums and sites, discounts on further attractions and sightseeing, restaurants and shops. Stay in a hotel in Oslo City Central.

Day 2: Enjoying the Nutshell of Norway
Today you’ll start early and head to Oslo Central Station, where you’ll board the Bergensbanen train that will take you over the mountain roof of Norway on your way to Bergen. The ride, voted one of the 20 best railways in the world, will take you through the charming villages of Gol and Geilo on your way to Myrdal Station. In Myrdal, you’ll switch trains to take the Flåm Railway, an incredible 20 km ride with a difference in altitude of 900 meters, taking you down to the beautiful town of Flåm. In Flåm, you’ll have free admission to the Flåm Railway Documentation Centre, located right beside Flåm Station, where you can learn about the construction of the world’s steepest railway line. From Flåm, you’ll be transported by boat onto the Aurlandsfjord and into the World Heritage-listed Nærøyfjord, the narrowest fjord in Europe. This is perhaps the most beautiful and wildest arm of the Sognefjord, with its tall mountains, mighty waterfalls and small farms clinging to the steep mountainsides, bound to leave you breathless. The boat will take you to Gudvangen, and from there you’ll be transported by bus through the magnificent Nærøy Valley. In Voss you’ll board the train, taking you the last stretch to Bergen. Stay the night in Bergen.

Day 3: The Capital of the Fjords
After a breakfast you will have most of the day off to discover Bergen. Despite being an international city, Bergen has kept the atmosphere and charm of a small town. Your accommodation in the centre of the city makes an excellent starting point for exploring the “capital of the fjords”. Bergen is a wonderful, must-visit city, full of life and culture. In Bergen you’ll find Bryggen, listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage site; exceptional old houses; the vibrant fish and flower market; cable cars offering stunning views; great museums, and more. After a lovely day in Bergen it is time to jump on board to one of Norwegian Coastal Voyagers and head towards Trondheim. If lucky you will be accompanied by the beautiful Northen lights into the night. Stay the night on the cruise.

 Day 4: Beautiful Ålesund
During the night the Cruise will make short stops in Florø, Måløy and Torvik. At noon you will be arriving to one of Norway most beautiful towns, Ålesund. Different from any other Norwegian town, neither old clapboard houses nor functional concrete and glass is much in evidence. But instead its centre boasts a conglomeration of pastel-painted frontages, lavishly decorated and topped with forest of towers and turrets. You will have approximately 3 hours to enjoy this old fishing village before continuing trip to Trondheim. Around dinner time you will make a short stop at Molde. The last sprint towards Trondheim will give you another magnificent opportunity to witness the power of the Northen lights in all their beauty. Stay the night on the cruise.

Day 5: The Capital of the Vikings
You will get a very early start of the day as you arrive to Trondheim. A good suggestion would be to enjoy a nice breakfast at one of Trondheim lovely coffee shops. You will then have the opportunity to spend the day in the Capital of the Vikings. In the afternoon you will head towards Trondheim airport and fly off to Parisof the North, Tromsø. After checking in on you hotel in Tromsø you can either have a nice dinner, or if you still have energy, head out to Tromsø wilderness and enjoy some of the brightest Northen Lights in the world. Stay the night in Tromsø

Day 6: Wilderness Safari
Today it is pure nature and nothing but nature. You will be heading out to Tromsø Wilderness centre where you enjoy a ride with some eager Alaska Husky dogs, on dog sleds, or if you like machines you can ride around the nature on snowmobiles. During your trip to the nature you will have the opportunity to get some of true taste of Samii culture and if lucky taste some of their traditional food.

After a successful adventure in the nature of Northern Norway you will head back to the city where you can enjoy a lovely meal in Tromsø. Stay the night in Tromsø.

Day 7: Departure Day
After exciting and enjoyable adventures in Norway nature it is time to leave the paradise and fly back to Oslo where you will fly to your next destination.
