Tour overview
Northern summers are gentle, the daylight lasts late into the evening and the cities are clean, safe and easy to walk. This tour links five countries using trains, coaches and two comfortable overnight cruise ferries with private cabins.
The fjord section is the one travellers remember most, with the Flam railway climbing past waterfalls to the mountain plateau.
