Itinerary
We meet at the airport at 5.15pm for our direct Norwegian flight departing at 7.45pm and arriving at Oslo-Gardermoen Airport at 11.35pm. Upon arrival, we will head to our 4-star Home Hotel Folketeateret in Oslo for check-in.
We will start our stay with an excursion to Oslo, where we will have a guided city tour of around 3 hours, passing all main city attractions. We shall embark on an immersive tour of Oslo, the Norwegian capital, as we explore its vibrant central district. Amongst many, we will visit iconic landmarks, such as the impressive Cathedral, the majestic Parliament building, and the lively Karl Johan Street. One can admire the grandeur of the Royal Palace and the architectural beauty of the University of Oslo. The highlight of the tour is Vigeland Park, home to over 200 captivating sculptures that showcase the genius of Norwegian artist Gustav Vigeland. This extensive journey offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and art in one of Norway’s most dynamic cities. The afternoon will be free for personal sightseeing, where one may opt to visit the museums (entrance extra) on Bygdoy peninsula – Kon-Tiki ship museum and Fram icebreaker museum. There is also a ferry (extra) to get to these museums. Overnight in 4-star Home Hotel Folketeateret in Oslo.
After breakfast, we start a long journey towards Sognefjord. We shall pass by scenic routes, and on the way, we will stop to visit the Borgrund stave church (entrance included). The Borgrund stave church is located in Lærdal and is a masterpiece of medieval wooden architecture and one of the best-preserved stave churches in the world. Built around 1180, it features intricate carvings, a dramatic tiered roof, and dragon-head details reminiscent of Viking ship designs. The church provides a glimpse into Norway's rich cultural and religious history and is surrounded by stunning natural scenery. Its unique construction and timeless beauty make it a must-see for history and architecture enthusiasts. Upon arrival, we check into our 4-star Park Hotel Vossevangen in Vossevangen, just in time for dinner (included).
Today’s excursion will take us to Gudvangen, where we will take a minicruise (included) on the Narefjord to Flam, which is one of the nicest parts of the Fjords. This cruise will take approximately 2 hours. In Flam, we will take the Flamsbana panoramic train (included) to Myrdal. The Flåm Railway has been described as one of the most beautiful train journeys in the world and is one of the leading tourist attractions in Norway. The train runs from the end of Aurlandsfjord, a tributary of the Sognefjord, up to the high mountains at Myrdal station. The journey features the finest aspects of the stunning scenery of Western Norway. From the comfort of a vintage train compartment, you can enjoy the changing scenery of the Flåm Valley. Before ascending into the more impassable sections of the valley, the train runs through agricultural landscapes, the old Flåm village centre and the old church. The train takes a five-minute photo stop at the Kjosfossen waterfall, where one can disembark and go out onto the platform. We will continue the journey via the Lærdal tunnel, which is the longest in Scandinavia. Train from Myrdal to Voss, and overnight in the 4-star Park Hotel Vossevangen in Vossevangen and dinner at hotel (included).
We check-out from the hotel, and head towards the city of Bergen, the second largest city of Norway. In Bergen, we will embark on a three-and-a-half-hour fjord cruise (included) through the stunning and varied landscapes of western Norway. From bustling Bergen, we take you deep into serene fjords framed by narrow passages, steep mountainsides and mighty waterfalls—Norway at its most breathtaking. Your journey leads to the beautiful Mostraumen, a narrow strait known for its dramatic cliffs, fast-flowing currents and striking proximity to towering rock walls. As we navigate through this impressive channel, you’ll experience the raw power and beauty of the fjords up close. Lean back, relax, and enjoy a half-day adventure filled with majestic scenery, dramatic mountains, and unforgettable natural wonders. Overnight in 4-star Scandic Bergen City in Bergen.
Today, we will head for a guided city tour of Bergen which will take around 3 hours. Bergen, often called “The Heart of the Fjords,” is a charming coastal city on Norway's southwestern coast. Despite being Norway's second-largest city, it retains the feel of a quaint town with its vibrant urban character. Explore its narrow, cobblestone streets and visit Bryggen, the UNESCO-listed Hanseatic Wharf, a beautifully preserved relic of Bergen’s history as a vital trade hub between Norway and Europe. Surrounded by seven mountains and fjords, Bergen is the perfect blend of natural beauty, history, and culture. In the afternoon, return trip with the Fløibanen funicular (included) on Mount Fløyen, from where one can enjoy a wonderful panorama of Bergen. Overnight in 4-star Scandic Bergen City in Bergen.
After breakfast, we will start the long drive from Bergen to Oslo, passing along the majestic Hardangerfjord, the Vøringfossen waterfalls, the Hardanger plateau, Geilo. The Hardangerfjord, Norway's second-longest fjord at 179km, stretches from the Atlantic near Bergen to the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. Renowned for its stunning natural beauty, it is especially admired during spring when apple orchards along its shores bloom. Key branches of the fjord include the Sørfjord and Eidfjord, with charming towns like Odda offering rich history and scenic views. This iconic fjord is a must-see destination for its serene landscapes and cultural significance. We shall arrive in Oslo in late afternoon, and we will spend our last night in the 4-star Home Hotel Bastion in Oslo.
This morning, we shall check-out of our rooms and head to the airport for our return flight departing at 3.10pm and arriving in Malta at 7pm.
