An absolutely wonderful trip to beautiful Norway! Alex and his team arranged an idyllic itinerary combining the must-see sights of Oslo with an immersive tour of gorgeous fjords and picturesque villages. The scenic Flåm railway was breathtaking! Hiking and boating to see the stunning fjords was otherworldly! Add a cheese tasting, culture walk, RIB safari, traditional Norwegian lunch, funicular ride, and so much more added to our amazing experience. Our accommodations and activities were expertly chosen and we couldn't have been more pleased. Alex and his team were communicative, professional, friendly and truly cared that our experience in Norway was beyond memorable. We highly recommend Alex and his team.

We loved everything about this hotel - from the location, our room, the views, the fabulous breakfast, and our ability to walk a very short distance to our fjord cruise adventure

It was such a treat. We were able to meet up at the hotel lobby. Walking around and not being in a rush was especially enjoyable. And the snacks were all delicious. We're still talking about the waffles.
