Arrive at the Gardermoen Airport in Oslo, where the crisp Nordic air greets you. Whether you choose the express train or a private transfer, let the journey into the heart of Oslo begin. If time permits, wander through the city, exploring the Munch Museum, Akershus Fortress, Oslo Opera House, and the vibrant Aker Brygge area. As the day winds down, settle into the city’s embrace for the night.
Embrace the morning in Oslo with a self-guided exploration or hop on a guided bus tour, unraveling the city’s tales. Landmarks like Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Royal Palace, and the historic Akershus Fortress beckon. Alternatively, venture down Karl Johans street or dive into the maritime wonders of the Kon-Tiki Museum and Fram Polar Ship Museum. Oslo’s treasures await your discovery as another night unfolds in its charm.
With the dawn, set forth to Oslo Central Station for a magical journey on the Norway in a Nutshell® railway towards Bergen. Traverse snow-kissed landscapes, switching trains in Myrdal for the renowned Flåm Railway, delivering you to the picturesque Flåm. The day is yours to relish the tranquility, following hiking trails through mountainous realms. Let the allure of Flåm captivate you under the winter sky as you rest for the night.
Whispers Dive deeper into the allure of Flåm. Immerse yourself in the Flåm Railway Documentation Centre, where the story of this marvel unfolds. Optionally, ascend to the Stegastein viewpoint, extending over the fjords for breathtaking vistas. For the intrepid, a fjord safari beckons, revealing hidden gems in the icy embrace. As the day concludes, let Flåm’s enchantment be your guide for another serene night.
Morning sunrays guide you onto a boat sailing through Aurlandsfjord into the Nærøyfjord, a UNESCO-listed marvel. Admire waterfalls and villages perched on mountainsides, a winter spectacle. From Gudvangen, embark on a bus journey through Nærøydalen, unfolding its winter charm. In Voss, continue the odyssey on the Bergen Railway, reaching the vibrant city of Bergen. The night is yours to relish the city’s blend of history and modernity.
Explore Bergen, the “Capital of the Fjords.” Bryggen’s UNESCO embrace, preserved old houses, and lively markets await. Ascend Mount Fløyen via the Fløibanen Funicular or soar to Mt. Ulriken by cable car for panoramic views. Museums beckon, narrating tales of trade, fisheries, architecture, and contemporary art. A second night in Bergen allows you to savor every nuance of its fjord-kissed allure.
As your journey concludes, bid adieu to Bergen, leaving with cherished memories. Make your way to Bergen-Flesland Airport, choosing between the convenient airport bus or a leisurely taxi ride. If time permits, indulge in last-minute shopping, museum visits, or savor a quiet moment at a café. For those bound to Oslo, a direct train ride awaits, but consider an extra night if your departure is early. The final chapter of your Nordic tale unfolds gracefully. Safe travels!
