Geiranger & Norway in a nutshell®
– A taste of world heritage
This trip takes you to two of the world's most beautiful fjords, the Geirangerfjord and the Naeroyfjord, both of which are on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
You can start the trip by taking a train from Oslo to Andalsnes, a journey which includes one of Norway's most beautiful and wild stretches of railway, the Raumabanen Railway. En route, you will pass the very steep Trollveggen cliff and the Kyllingbru bridge, which is the most photographed bridge in Norway.
The trip continues by bus from Andalsnes to the Art Nouveau city of Alesund, where you are given an opportunity to admire the city's characteristic Art Nouveau architecture. The Hurtigruten coastal express takes you into the magic of the Geirangerfjord. On the way, you can enjoy the view of the famous waterfalls "De Syv Søstre" (the seven sisters), "Friaren" (the suitor) and "Brudesløret" (the bridal veil). Back in Alesund, the trip continues south on the Hurtigruten coastal express along the coast of Western Norway to Bergen.
In Bergen, you can experience the World Heritage Site Bryggen. At Bryggen, you can wander through history all the way back to the Middle Ages and up to the present. The trip continues with the popular Norway in a nutshell ® trip from Bergen to Oslo. The very steep hair-pin bends at Stalheimskleiva, a pleasant cruise of the Nærøyfjord, a spectacular trip with the Flam Railway and the beautiful Bergensbanen Railway are among the attractions you experience on the trip from Bergen to Oslo.
The Geiranger & Norway in a nutshell® trip will be available from mid-April to mid-September, and round trips can be made from Oslo, Bergen or Ålesund.
