Bergen to Bergen

Bekkjarvik is a charming fishing village located on the coast to the south of Bergen.
We recommend a deep sea fishing expedition with a local guide.
Alternatively, visit the Bekkjarvik Guesthouse is a late seventeenth-century inn were you can have a nice dinner cooked by the famous chef, Ørjan Johannesen, the winner of Bocuse d’Or 2015, and boasts a seafood and shellfish speciality.
In the village you will also find a unique little shopping mall and a barrel factory.
Before leaving take time to visit the Bekjkavik church that has been located in the village since 1895.

Bergen is the second largest city in Norway and is the gateway to the Fjords with a wide array of attractions.
Bergen is a city packed with culture, architecture, history and tradition. There are great opportunities for shopping and we recommend to visit the aquarium and museums.
Bergen is famous for its old wharf, where historically people came from many countries to trade.  In the harbor you will also find the popular fish market.
Above the city, the mount Fløien is watching over it all, and a hike up here is good exercise with the reward of a great view.

At Finden you’ll find the sound of silence!  It’s a place with only one man and no roads, and the surroundings are spectacular!  Next to Finden you will find the special Fjord-arm of Findebotten. This is a very sheltered area and it’s beautiful for kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding.  We recommend a guided Fjord-fishing trip, and a local guide will come with his own boat, pots and nets, all prepared in advance.

Flåm is a very popular tourist destination and a vibrant village in summer time. The big attraction here is the famous Flam Railway.  We recommended taking the train to the top and then biking down the beautiful valley back to the village. Another option is to take the zipline which runs the 1,381m down a part of the valley and back to the Fjord!
In the village you can shop for souvenirs and visit to the local pub where they produce their own renowned beer.
One of the highlights of this itinerary is cruising into the amazing Nærøyfjord listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list - it is one of the most beautiful Fjords in the World.  For those interested in Viking history, a visit to the Viking village of Njardarheim, located at the end of the Fjord, is recommended.

Kaupanger is located on the north side of the Sognefjord.  A thousand years ago when the fjords where the highway, this was an important harbor for trading, and some of the biggest farms on the west coast were located here.  Because of this, one of the most majestic stave churches in Norway was built here. We recommend a tour of the stave church and a private song performance - it’s a very memorable experience.
From the bay of Kaupanger you will be taken by car transport to an amazing estate for salmon fishing and a private BBQ.  The estate’s idyllic and secluded location makes it a perfect spot for a bit of reclusive peace and quiet. Guests of the estate are offered terrific fishing in the farm’s own lake and in this most peaceful and calm of environments, you can try your hand at catching a salmon.
Food is an important part of the overall experience wherever you are. The estate’s chef will BBQ a whole deer, hunted in the forest surrounding the farm.  The meal will be served outside in ‘House of Spirits’, at the big pond - this is an open cottage of about 150 square meters, built in local mountain pine. Here you can sit late into the evening, enjoying your food and drink by the fireside, taking in the scenery of the big pond and the surrounding mountains.

At the end of the 204km-long Songefjord, the Luster fjord is located and the landscape here is shaped by the glacier and the Fjord.
This is the day to go for a hike on the glacier!  A car drive will take you up to the glacier and you will be provided with all the required equipment.  First, you will paddle a kayak over the lake in front of the glacier and then begin the hike up to the glacier and along, as far as you wish to go.

The yacht will arrive in Fjærland and guests can go ashore for a Glacier tour.
Guests will be met at the pier by a local guide and a van will transport them on an exploratory excursion of the glaciers surrounding the village.
All of this natural wonder is accessible just 10 minutes’ distance from the boat.
Fjærland also offers many great hikes of varying difficulty levels.
Balestrand is a beautiful village located in the middle of the Sognefjord on the north side. Balestrand is famous for its large fruit cultivation and among the apple trees you will find a hidden little gem - The Ciderhouse.  The Ciderhouse produces the finest beverages from the apples and there’s also a restaurant here. In the evening, enjoy a private tasting experience at the Ciderhouse and you will also be served a special dinner - it’s a great way to mark a special occasion, or reward yourself for a day’s glacial exploring!
Dalsfjorden is a peaceful Fjord with beautiful surroundings and an amazing waterfall.
We recommend a visit ashore and meeting a local who will take you for a lovely hike along the waterfall’s side. The hike is for approximately three hours, depending on how much time you want to spend enjoying the views.
