Southampton is a working port with a rich maritime past. Walk its medieval city walls, then visit SeaCity Museum, where exhibits explore the city’s connection to the Titanic. The Mayflower began its 1620 voyage from Southampton, and the Titanic sailed from here in 1912. Beyond the waterfront, the New Forest’s heathland and Winchester’s cathedral make rewarding excursions.
Set between seven mountains and the North Sea, Bergen makes a graceful introduction to Norway’s western fjords. Its handsome harbour, Bryggen’s timber wharf and the fish market sit close together, easily explored on foot. Ride the Fløibanen funicular for a clear view across the city and islands, then linger over fresh seafood. Bergen is compact, cultured and an ideal place to begin a journey into fjord country.
Geiranger sits at the head of a fjord framed by sheer mountains and falling waterfalls. Its deep blue waters form part of the UNESCO-listed West Norwegian Fjords, among Norway’s most striking landscapes. From the village, boat trips reveal the Seven Sisters and the Suitor, waterfalls facing across the fjord. For sweeping views, drive or take a coach to Ørnesvingen or Flydalsjuvet; the valley’s scale comes into focus.
Olden sits at the head of Nordfjord, where steep green mountains rise from the water and glaciers shape the horizon. From the village, roads lead to Briksdal Glacier, an arm of Jostedalsbreen, with a final walk through valleys and waterfalls. Nearby, Loen Skylift climbs to Mount Hoven for wide views over fjord, peaks and lakes. Come ashore ready to choose: a close encounter with ice, or Norway seen from above.
Flåm sits at the head of Aurlandsfjord, where sheer mountain walls rise above a small Norwegian village. From the quay, the Flåm Railway climbs 20 kilometres to Myrdal, passing waterfalls, farms and a deep valley. Take the train for the drama; take a fjord cruise to grasp the scale. Nearby, Nærøyfjord’s UNESCO-listed waters narrow between cliffs, while walking paths lead into quiet valleys. Flåm rewards an early start: the best views begin just beyond the village.
Stavanger rewards a shore day spent on foot. White wooden houses line the compact old centre beside a lively harbour. The Norwegian Petroleum Museum explains how oil reshaped the city. Climb to the cathedral, begun around 1125, then browse Øvre Holmegate’s colourful cafés and shops. For a wider view, take a boat into Lysefjord, where sheer cliffs rise beneath Preikestolen. Wear good shoes; cobbles and steep lanes are part of the pleasure.
