Amsterdam pairs world-class museums with the everyday pleasure of canal-side life. Its Golden Age houses, narrow waterways and lively markets make the city rewarding well beyond its famous sights. Visit the Rijksmuseum for Dutch masters, then explore the canal belt on foot or by boat. Leave time for a neighbourhood café: in Amsterdam, the best discoveries often come between the landmarks.
Eidfjord puts you at the quiet end of Hardangerfjord, where sheer mountains rise from deep, blue water. From the village, roads climb towards Hardangervidda, Northern Europe’s largest mountain plateau, and Vøringsfossen waterfall. See the falls from purpose-built viewing bridges, or remain by the fjord for a gentler day. Orchards and local craft give the village a distinctly western Norwegian character.
Ålesund makes an immediate impression: its waterfront is lined with Art Nouveau buildings, rebuilt after a devastating fire in 1904. Beyond the elegant façades, this is a working Norwegian port framed by islands and steep mountain peaks. Climb the 418 steps to Mount Aksla for a sweeping view across the town and Sunnmøre Alps. Then visit the Atlantic Sea-Park, one of Northern Europe’s largest saltwater aquariums.
Nordfjordeid sits at the head of Eidsfjorden, where steep mountains frame a sheltered arm of Nordfjord. Step ashore for Sagastad, a Viking-age centre built around a full-scale replica of the Myklebust ship. In town, see 19th-century Eid Church, then visit the Norwegian Fjord Horse Centre to discover this native breed. Inland roads lead toward glacier country, mountain lakes and the dramatic scenery of western Norway.
