Flåm guided shore tour with Stegastein viewpoint, Borgund Stave Church, Aurlandsfjord views, Lærdalsøyri, and the Lærdal Tunnel.

Haugesund to Karmøy half-day shore trip: Visnes Statue of Liberty link, Åkrasanden white-sand beach, Skudeneshavn white town, Viking sites.
“Darlene was a kick. She took out an accordion to play familiar tunes. Some passengers sang together. That was special. Also she bought everyone a Norwegian ‘delicacy’ - sort of fish cake. The famous pancake in town is worth trying.”
Half-day cod fishing and a fjord cruise from Tromsø aboard the historic Hermes II. Warm suits, hot drinks, and big views.
“Crew were very friendly, inclusive a lovely to talk to. Caught a good couple of fish which they cooked up and overall had a great time!”
Small-group fjord and wildlife photography tour from Tromsø on Kvaløya with professional guides, big views, and winter wildlife chances.
“Amazing small group tour with a guide who grew up in the area and knows all the best spots. Plus they go above and beyond to ensure you’re comfortable (food provided, etc.).”
Half-day Trondheim highlights by coach and walk, hitting Nidaros Cathedral, fortress views, Bakklandet, and the Old Town Bridge.
“The tour was very informative and Jay was a good tour guide. We learned so much about Trodheim. Jay was very knowledgeable and personable.”
Half-day guided Lofoten tour with photo stops at Kabelvåg Church, Henningsvær, Gimsøya, and Unstad, plus weather-flex route.
“I took a daytime tour with Odd-Petter to explore the sights, and it was such a wonderful experience that we decided to book his northern lights tour the same evening—and we’re so glad we did! The lights were absolutely breathtaking, and the entire evening was unforgettable. Odd-Petter was a fantastic guide—fun, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about sharing the beauty of the region. His tour company stands out because it’s one of the few locally owned ones, and having grown up in the area, he knows the terrain, secret spots, and how to navigate the challenging roads like the back of his hand. We highly recommend booking with him for both…”
Via ferrata on Øyfjellet and a 700 m zipline over the Vefsna River, ending by Fru Haugans Hotel near Mosjøen.
“Great day, challenging enough Via Ferrata, excellent guides who ensured safe and enjoyable climbing at all times. Zipwire was a perfect end to a great day.”
