Itinerary Description |
Random Walk Norway will give you a taste of what this beautiful Scandinavian country has to offer. Whether it be hiking through mountains and glaciers or riding through the deep coastal fjords, the beauty of this country will be displayed throughout the program. Beginning in Oslo you’ll get a sense of the big capital city through a walking tour and sites that can’t be missed for your short time in Oslo. Next, you’ll climb on board a bus to transfer the group to the city of Odda. Here will be the perfect landing spot for your days ahead with a Glacier Hike and to experience the breathtaking views of Trolltunga. After your time in Odda, you will board a coach to Voss. In Voss, you will have a rafting experience of a lifetime. From there, you’ll transfer to Flam and take a peek into the roots of this country with a cultural experience in a Viking Village and a lovely Fjord Cruise. End your trip with a return train ride to Oslo to experience the city for one last time before departing on your flight back to the US. If you are an adventure seeker, enjoy being active and love hikes, this trip is for you as you! |
