Our consultant, Tom Christer, planned a remarkable trip for us. From start to finish, we travelled by bus, boat, train and car taking in Norway’s special grandeur of mountains, fjords and seascapes.
We arrived in time for National Day and thoroughly enjoyed being part of the celebration.
A real highlight was our time in the Lofoten Islands and then going up to Andenes. Puffins, sea eagles and orcas plus the scenic fishing villages provided daily delight.
I can’t say enough good things about Tom, who is so responsive and helpful.
I’ve travelled widely and this trip exceeded my expectations.

The location and charm were perfect. Very good dining but I wish they would take whale meat off the menu.
