Fabulous Scandinavia Tour

11 days
10 nights

Testimonials:

This trip was absolutely fantastic. The agency always answered any questions I had before I left. The tour leaders for Norway and Sweden were knowledgeable and always helpful. Our bus driver did amazing driving through the mountains. The food was over abundant. I would suggest just having either the lunch or dinner meal only as when having breakfast, lunch and dinner was overfilling. If lunch was included then the dinner should not be included the same day or vise versa. The scenery was spectacular in Norway and absolutely loved staying overnight in the fjords with a spectacular view from the hotel balcony was heavenly. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat. The tour agency and all members of the trip were the best. It was also beneficial in being a small group, under 14.

The Kon-Tiki Museum is dedicated to the famous Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl and his expeditions. The museum houses the Kon-Tiki raft, which Heyerdahl used for his 1947 expedition across the Pacific Ocean from South America to the Polynesian islands. Heyerdahl's journey on the Kon-Tiki demonstrated that prehistoric people could have traveled across vast oceanic distances and potentially influenced the cultures of different islands. In addition to the Kon-Tiki raft, the museum also displays other vessels and artifacts from Heyerdahl's expeditions, including the Ra II, used to sail across the Atlantic Ocean, and exhibits related to Easter Island and other Polynesian cultures. The museum provides a fascinating insight into the history of exploration and adventure. The Fram Museum is dedicated to the polar exploration vessel Fram, which was used by Norwegian explorers Fridtjof Nansen, Otto Sverdrup, and Roald Amundsen in their expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctic regions during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Fram was specially designed to withstand the pressure of the ice and was used in some of the most significant polar expeditions in history. Both museums offer unique insights into the world of exploration and are must-visit attractions for history enthusiasts and anyone interested in maritime adventures.
