  6. Day 5SkjoldenJul 15, 2027

    Sitting at the end of the world's longest fjord, Skjolden is considered one of the world's most breath-taking destinations, overlooked by soaring mountains and dramatic cliffs. Beautiful Skjolden is perfectly placed as a gateway to the Jotunheimen Mountains and Jostedalsbreen, mainland Europe's largest glacier. Skjolden offers a slice of genuine Norwegian hospitality and nature beyond imagination; it is also home of Urnes Stave Church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Feigum Waterfalls – the most spectacular in Norway, are equally unmissable. Ludwig Wittgenstein lived and worked in Skjolden in the early 20th century. Considered by some to be the greatest philosopher of his era, Wittgenstein continues to influence western thinking in logic and language, ethics and religion, and he wrote many of his most influential works when he stayed here.

  7. Day 5LustrafjordJul 15, 2027
  8. Day 6NordfjordeidJul 16, 2027

    Spreading out across flat, lush-green landscapes and creeping up the side of forested hills, the town of Nordfjordeid presents a postcard-perfect view at the very end of Eidsfjorden, an arm of the magnificent Nordfjord. Small, but steeped in history and local, time-honoured traditions and cultures, Nordfjordeid is as appealing and memorable to explore as it is to see from the decks of your smaller-sized ship, with its delightful old town, pretty parks and gorgeous coastline. The main attraction is Norway’s largest known Viking ship, Myklebustskipet, which is believed to date back to the 800s. And, thanks to its location in the heart of the fjordland, Nordfjordeid makes for the perfect starting point for discovering some of the region’s greatest, and most famous, natural wonders and attractions; the spectacular Briksdal and Kjenndal glaciers, incredible Loen Skylift and Hornindal Lake are just some of the highlights within reach on excursions and adventure tours.
