Enjoy privileged close-up views of the enigmatic stones, complemented by captivating tales of their history at the visitor's center, before exploring the quaint streets and Gothic splendors of Salisbury.

Set out on an unguided exploration of London's famed landmarks and hidden gems from the convenient starting point of the South Bank. Choose your own adventure, whether it's marveling at historic sites like Buckingham Palace and St. Paul’s Cathedral, enjoying the bustling shopping streets of Oxford and Regent, or experiencing the cultural treasures of the Tate Modern and National Art Gallery.

Consecrated in 2013, Europe's northernmost cathedral symbolizes an extraordinary natural phenomenon of the Arctic--the Aurora Borealis. Aptly named the Northern Lights Cathedral, the significance of the Aurora is reflected in the cathedral's architecture. The facade, clad in titanium, reflects the Northern Lights during the long Arctic winter.

Perched atop a small hill overlooking a sparkling fjord, the museum boasts Northern Europe's largest and richest rock carving site, inscribed on the UNESCO's World Heritage List. A well-marked walkway is dotted with stopping points that give you an up-close look at some of the thousands of rock carvings and rock paintings created between 6,200 and 2,500 years ago by the ancient residents of this place. A walk inside the museum reveals additional information and examples of the ancient rock carvings, plus exhibits about the Northern Lights, Alta's slate industry, the Sami religion, the Bossekop trading market and salmon fishing in the Alta River.

Experience the Aurora Borealis with a fascinating and illuminating evening at Northern Lights Camp Alta. Set near the top of the slate quarry at Paeskatun, the camp offers fantastic views over the valley, the surrounding mountains and, of course, the dark winter sky. Once you arrive, you can watch a Northern Lights film that highlights the myths, history and science behind one of Mother Nature's most fascinating wonders. You can alsosee a workshop with a screen presenting the slate history of Alta; or you can just wander around and enjoy the scenery!

Measuring seven miles long and averaging about 360 feet deep, Sautso has the distinction of being the largest canyon in Northern Europe. Carved by the Alta River, the high cliff walls plunge down to the lush greenery that surrounds the river's foaming rapids.

Located about ten miles from Alta's city center, the Paeskatun slate quarry represents a long and important tradition in the economic life in Alta. To get an idea of just how difficult it is to turn large slabs into thin plates, a tour of the museum boasts old slate cabins that relates the history of the slate industry in Alta. One cabin recreates the living quarters of slate workers in the old days, including furniture and tools. In another cabin you can see how very old tools developed into the equipment the miners use today. Inside the slate hall you can study the layers in the slate, examine tools such as modern electric scissors and a vacuum crane used to lift large plates of slate, and watch a unique hands-on demonstration.

Located near the Alta river, this unique dwelling combines modern amenities with "glamping" – camping in style – in a tipi-style bungalow. Once you arrive, meet the hosts who will provide you with warm thermal suits, boots and gloves. After a safety briefing, you'll have the opportunity to meet very friendly huskies for your dog sledding on wheels adventure. You'll depart on a dogsled on wheels and your experienced driver will steer you through nine miles of beautiful forest and riverside trails. When you return to the lounge of the main lodge you'll have a chance to relax or take a shower. When it's time to call it a day, you'll be escorted to a Sami-inspired tipi-cabin where you can watch the wonders of nature from the comfort of a soft and snuggly double bed in a room heated by your own wood stove. Part of the tipi wall has been replaced by clear plastic offering views of the night sky and hopefully the northern lights!

Sitting in the shadow of Kyrkjetaket and Gjuratinden mountains, just outside the village of Isfjorden, the farm has been in the Woldstad family since 1654. The idyllic farm now consists of 12 buildings, ranging from a boat house to the summer barn and some that date back to the 1500s. When you arrive, you'll receive a warm Norwegian welcome and hear stories of life on the farm, family history and experience Norwegian culture. Your host encourages questions, as the farm owners are passionate about sharing how life in this challenging (yet scenically beautiful) place has changed over the centuries.

Located just steps from the ship, the 9,687-square-foot building displays the history and development of mountaineering, from the first ascent of Romsdalshorn in 1828 to the modern era. The dramatic and jagged building is clad in gray, brown, and white shingles and inside you'll find Norway's highest indoor climbing wall, interactive exhibits and a viewing of a 15-minute movie showcasing extreme outdoor activities in the spectacular Romsdal mountains.

Take in the sights from the comfort of your coach as you leave Andalsnes and travel along the Rauma River. Once you cross the Sogge Bridge, you'll approach the Isterdal Valley, surrounded by impressive mountains with majestic names, such as The King, The Queen and The Bishop. Further up the valley, you'll reach the Troll Road (known locally as Trollstigen) famed for its eleven hairpin turns and spectacular sights. Enjoy the twists and turns and heights that can reach 2,788 feet as you make your way up to Trollstigheimen Mountain Lodge, which commands magnificent views over the mountains and the Isterdal Valley.

A panoramic drive along the Isfjorden brings you to Afarnes, where you'll take a short ferry ride to the village of Sølsnes and board a coach. Gaze out the window at the breathtaking scenery as you ride over pretty bridges and through an underwater tunnel before meeting up with the Atlantic Road. Stretching out a mere five miles, this scenic roadway of twists and turns has been recognized by Norway as an official 'Cultural Heritage Site' and 'National Tourist Route,' but its biggest honor came when the road was named the 'Norwegian Construction of the Century.' The road connects several small islands and skerries via viaducts, causeways, and eight bridges that boast amazing views of the Norwegian Sea.

Named for the trolls once believed to roam through the mountains of Trollstigen every night and turned to stone when they are hit by sunlight each morning, the 34-mile-long road snakes and climbs its way up, up, up along steep mountainsides and down eleven hairpin turns to the Isterdalen Valley, which stretches out below. Some spots of the road are cut into the mountain or built on top of stone walls. This spectacular scenic drive takes you along the shoreline of the Romsdalsfjord and through quaint villages, with photo stops where you can capture its mesmerizing beauty. On your return drive, you'll stop at the Troll Wall; at 3,608 feet, it's the tallest vertical rock face in Europe.

Rebuilt after a series of great fires, Bryggen is included on UNESCO's World Heritage List, a medieval port with candy-colored wooden buildings once belonging to the Hanseatic League, a guild of German and Baltic merchants who built a trading empire from the 14th to the mid-16th centuries. The rebuilding utilized old patterns and methods, and some 60-plus structures have been historically preserved, forming a townscape of restaurants, artist galleries and craft shops.

Begin with a short walk or transfer through the city, passing along the fortress of Bergenhus with the old Coronation Hall, as well as the old, picturesque buildings that once belonged to German merchants of the UNESCO-designated Hanseatic League, before arriving at the lower station of the funicular.

Board your motorcoach for the short drive to King Håkon's Hall. Completed in 1261, this great hall was built by King Håkon to celebrate royal weddings and coronations. Tour the wood and stone hall, view its medieval tapestries, and see the primstav, or clog almanac, a calendar dating from 1200.

Nestled on the northern shore of the Hardangerfjord, Norheimsund is in close proximity to the Steinsdalsfossen, one of Norway's most visited waterfalls. Its pretty little waterfront is perfect for a stroll.

Join your guide for a funicular ride that begins near sea level and rises to the summit of 1,050-foot-high Mt. Fløyen.
