Welcome to your tour with Greca! Upon arrival, we will provide your transfer to the hotel. You’ll have free time to relax or begin exploring this charming city at your own pace.

In the afternoon, please check the information boards at the hotel reception for details about the start of your tour and meeting times with your guide.

Greca Tip: If time allows, take a stroll along the Nidelva River and visit Bakklandet, a historic district filled with colorful wooden houses, cozy cafés, and an authentic local atmosphere. It’s the perfect way to start immersing yourself in Norwegian culture.

After enjoying a hearty breakfast at the hotel, we will have some time to explore the historic center of Trondheim at our own pace. This charming city boasts a rich heritage that dates back to the Viking era.

Later in the morning, we will continue our journey westward, entering a coastal region of breathtaking landscapes, where majestic fjords stretch toward the Norwegian Sea. Along the way, we will cross one of these fjords by ferry, taking in unforgettable panoramic views.

Our next stop will be in Kristiansund, a town spread across several islands connected by bridges and causeways. Known for its stunning natural setting and long-standing fishing tradition, this city offers a delightful center with cobbled streets, small shops, restaurants, and cozy cafés. You will have time to stroll around and enjoy lunch at your leisure.

We will then continue our route through rolling green hills and scenic fjords until we reach the Kvernes Stave Church, a 14th-century wooden church (entrance included). This remarkable site features a beautifully detailed altarpiece dedicated to the Virgin Mary and a valuable 300-year-old ship model.

After enjoying a full breakfast at the hotel, we prepare for an unforgettable day filled with breathtaking landscapes of fjords, mountains, and glaciers. This stage of our journey will take us through some of the most beautiful corners of Norway.

In the afternoon, we will resume our journey to Oslo, arriving in the mid-afternoon. We suggest taking a walk through its vibrant city center, exploring the old harbor area, and visiting the rooftop terrace of the modern Opera House, which offers panoramic views of the city and fjord.
