The Beautiful Fjords of Western Norway

Length: 8 days
Operator: Newmarket Air Holidays
Various dates available

A journey to Western Norway’s ‘Fjord
Country’ – one of the world’s most delightful destinations – is less a holiday and more a treasured souvenir for life.

For hundreds of years travellers have been drawn by the region’s trove of natural riches and the unique landscape of sheer mountainsides plunging into the deep, dark waters of the fjords.

Whilst in Norway you can either rest and relax in your hotel in Balestrand or join one of the four optional excursions on offer.

These include a visit to the Jostedal Glacier – a mesmerising natural wonder dominating the northern hinterland of the fjords; a full-day excursion to the city of Bergen with its narrow cobbled streets, medieval houses and vibrant
harbour area, and a trip to Sognefjord with its fascinating boat museum.

Finally the unmissable Norway in a Nutshell tour – one of the most scenic journeys by coach, boat and train across the most stunning parts of the region.
