Sailing expedition to Norway
We invite you to join the sailing trip in Norway. We will sail in the Norwegian fjords, stop in local villages, go trekking along the famous Norwegian rocks - Prekestolen and Kjeragbolten. We will walk around the area and fish, explore the local Scandinavian settlements and go to the Viking Island.
Why Norway?
Incredible nature
Norway is northern beauty, cliffs, and moss-covered rooftops, low clouds, and fast-changing weather. We will sail through the fjords and land ashore: walk through the forests, pick berries, and breathe fresh air.
Summer is the best time
Summer is the high season in Norway, but if you are on a yacht you can avoid it. A yacht allows you to plan your trip so as to avoid the crowds of tourists at the main attractions.
See more, spend less
We will go to the coolest spots in Norway, which are difficult to reach and will save time and resources on travel.
