The trip includes the Bergen Railway, the Flam Railway, a boat trip on the Aurlandsfjord, the Naeroyfjord and a spectacular busride on the the steep Stalheimskleiva road. The tour is available from Bergen, Voss and Oslo all year round.

The Bergen Railway is voted one of the world’s most beautiful train journeys. The train ride over Northern Europe’s largest mountain plateau is spectacular and varied with view of the blue ice of the Hardangerjokul glacier.

The train journey on the Flam Railway between Myrdal and Flam is one of the highlights of the round trip. On the 20-kilometre-long train ride, you will see some of the most magnificent mountain scenery Norway has to offer, with a shifting panorama of towering mountains and impressive waterfalls.

On the fjord cruise, you travel passed the beautiful villages of Aurland and Undredal before the boat enters the Naeroyfjord, one of the narrowest fjords in Europe. This arm of the Sognefjord is perhaps the most dramatic fjord in Norway, and is on UNESCO's World Heritage List.

The Stalheimskleiva road, which twists and turns up through 13 hairpin bends offering views of the Sivlefossen and the Stalheimsfossen waterfalls, is the steepest stretches of road in Northern Europe. Stalheimskleiva is open from May to September. In the winter months, the bus takes the new road to Voss.
