Norway’s fjords and the Lofoten Islands unveil dramatic Arctic landscapes and untouched coastal beauty.

In Ålesund, distinctive Art Nouveau architecture sets the stage for discovery, while the Lofoten Islands captivate with jagged peaks rising above tranquil waters and traditional fishing villages. An overnight in Reine offers time to fully experience this remarkable setting, while Rosendal’s serene surroundings provide a peaceful contrast. Throughout the journey, Norway’s rugged coastline and ever-changing scenery create an unforgettable exploration of the north.

Itinerary

Spread across three islands and ringed by dramatic mountains, Ålesund is imbued with whimsy and romance. Dressed elegantly in its signature Art Nouveau architecture, you can appreciate the turrets, spires and medieval ornaments that adorn the town. In a small park at the base of Mount Aksla, you’ll find a picture-postcard view of Ålesund, the Art Nouveau city center and the surrounding alpine landscapes of Sunnmøre. If dramatic views are what you seek, Trollstigen Road is an exciting roadway through enormous mountains, offering amazing views of Norway. The ultimate adventure is Trollveggen, the Troll Wall, which is the highest perpendicular rock face in Europe.

Between the Arctic Ocean and the majestic Lofoten peaks, Reine will leave you speechless. Its beauty is limitless and so are the endless ways you can take in its natural wonders, from cycling to hiking to kayaking. With 24 hours of daylight, this is also an amazing destination to photograph and capture that unique Arctic light. What makes Reine so famous is the access to Reinebringen, a verdant mountain that offers an incredible viewpoint of Reine and her neighboring villages, Sakrisøy and Hamnøy. On the water’s edge you can embark on a kayaking expedition for a different perspective of the famed mountain and take in the harbor, small islands with bird sanctuaries, wild shores and the beaches that comprise this idyllic setting.

The picturesque village of Rosendal, with cascading waterfalls and splendid scenery, is located on the southern shore of Hardangerfjord. As Sognefjord is king, Hardangerfjord is the queen of the fjords. You can visit the castle and gardens of popular Barony Rosen or travel to Odda and Lofthus in the Hardangerfjord, which offers a landscape of beautiful fruit communities, mountains and glaciers. Rosendal is perhaps most well-known for Baroniet Rosendal, the only baronial manor in all of Norway. With a rich and diverse history dating back to its establishment in 1665 and an incredible display of a renaissance rose garden, the scenery at this estate will delight and captivate you.

London is a fascinating city with storied landmarks, iconic attractions and countless hidden gems. As we navigate the famous River Thames, we pass renowned sights like Greenwich, the Maritime Museum, the Royal Observatory and historic locales that have made cinematic history. Our small yacht allows us to dock near the Tower Bridge, sailing under its impressive span, and come closer to the HMS Belfast, a historic ship known worldwide with a story that sparks your curiosity. Photographers often want to head toward central London near the Westminster Bridge. With Big Ben and Westminster Palace on one side and the London Eye on the other side of the river, it’s the best spot for the ultimate picture of the English capital. Among the lesser-known highlights of London is the British Library, where you may see a scribbled page of Beatles songwriting or a Leonardo da Vinci notebook. There are some stunning illuminated scripts and landmark-scientific items too. If you’re looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, head to Hyde Park or Kensington Gardens.
