Serene and majestic, the Norwegian Fjords lie at the last frontiers of Europe, steeped in a rich tradition of fairy-tale trolls, witches and sagas inherited from their Norse forefathers. Their timeless spirit lives on in the poetic music of Edvard Grieg, skilfully performed by his contemporary, violin virtuoso Ole Bull. Experience the special magic of the fjordland, its cascading waterfalls and picture-postcard alpine seters, fruit and flowers on a spellbinding cruise into the wild grandeur of Hardangerfjord, the Orchard of Norway.
