NORWAY Norway is an incredibly beautiful country and it is just the right place for those who are looking for a magnificent nature experience. Norway has a lot to offer when it comes to outdoor activities, such as beautiful fjords, steep mountainsides, silver gleaming waterfalls, lush landscapes, archipelago along the coast and a lovely capital city, where yet another fjord leaves you speechless. The Norwegians are a charming people, they are as hospitable as the day is long, and they stand together as one unit. This unity especially shines through on May 17th, which is the Norwegian Constitution Day. On this day the Norwegian people put on the Norwegian national dress, also called a Bunad, and celebrate together. From arctic climate in Svalbard to the warm summers in South, Norway offers a broad selection of experiences. Outdoor tours in the summer are without a doubt the best way to see and experience the amazing nature and the many opportu- nities. You can choose to get on a cruise on the fjords and maybe get to see the Northern Light or maybe you prefer to hike in the mountains and enjoy the fresh air from there – the options are many. In the winter, one of Norway’s main tourist attractions opens – the ski areas, who have a great selection of ski activities, including cross country, downhill, night skiing etc. You are sure to find a ski activity that fits your skills and interests. Norway is, due to its fantastic nature and mountains, an optimal destination for both action and skiing activities. Therefore, Norway is the perfect choice for schools whose students want to go skiing in the winter or hiking in the summer. WINTER Norway has always been one of the most popular places to go skiing, which is partly because of the broad selection of groomed on-pistes as well as powdery off-pistes and cross-country trails. Most of the areas offer pistes for everyone at any level, which makes them optimal for a school class that contains a lot of different students with different level of skills and needs. Additionally, it is possible for the students to get a ski instructor. Furthermore, the cottages are right by the pistes, so you do not have to travel by ski bus or anything like that. SUMMER As written earlier, Norway is a beautiful country with a breath-taking nature, which makes a tour to Norway an unforgettable tour. A tour to Norway in the summer offers indescribable nature and wildlife. On an active tour to Norway you can enjoy the nature while hiking in the mountains, canoeing on the lakes or biking through the forest etc. It is completely up to you and we are here to help you achieve the tour you want. The summer time is also the perfect time to visit Oslo, the Capital City of Norway. Oslo has a lot to offer, like the Viking ship Museum, walking tours, the Opera, ski museum and much more. In addition, Oslo is a many-sided city, where most sights are in a walking distance from each other, and in addition, Oslo is a bike friendly city. Otherwise, you can get around in the city by public transport or sightseeing buses.

Besides shopping streets and restaurants, the cities also offer a number of theme parks e.g. Liseberg, Astrid Lindgren’s World and High Chaparral. DENMARK Denmark is a small kingdom consisting of flat landscapes and green forests, surrounded by seas. Danish people as well as tourists use the many rivers, lakes and seas happily, as there is ample opportunity for canoe tours down the rivers or stand up paddle board in the sea etc. The most unique way to experience the sea in Denmark is by Grenen. ‘Gre- nen’ is the most northern point in Denmark and this is where the two seas, Kattegat and Skagerrak, collide, and if you want to, you can stand with one foot in both seas and feel the waves bump into each other. Denmark and the Danish people are often linked to the Vikings – for good reason. One of the greatest and most well-known Vikings is Harald Bluetooth, who Bluetooth, as we know it today, is named after. Denmark has a lot of museums, including a couple of Vi- king museums, and sometimes it is possible to take part in or experience a Viking Moot. Another thing many people think of when they hear the word ’Denmark’ is the author H.C. Andersen and his fairy tales like “The little Mermaid” and “The ugly Duckling”. In Odense, the third largest city in Denmark, it is possible to visit Andersen’s childhood home, which today acts as a museum. Furthermore, Denmark offers a broad selection of museums, Zoos, theme parks, castles and various outdoor activities such as canoeing, SUP, tree topping, mountain biking and hiking. COPENHAGEN Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark, and it has plenty of activities to do that are especially relevant for study tours. The city is known for the sculpture, the little Mermaid, which is over 100 years old and one of Copenhagen’s most popular tourist attractions. Additionally, Copenhagen has several old castles, e.g. Christiansborg Palace which is also a government building, and Amalienborg Palace. Amalienborg is the residence of the Danish royal family, and this is also where you will be able to watch the Royal Life Guards. Bakken and Tivoli is the world’s oldest and second oldest theme parks, respectively, and they are also to find in Copenhagen. Besides, the capital possesses various zoos, muse- ums, theatres, the Opera, green parks and much more. AARHUS Denmark’s second largest city is Aarhus, and it is only half as big as Copenhagen, based on population, but that does not mean it is not worth a visit. Back in 2017 Aarhus was appointed European Capital of Culture, which means that Aarhus has a lot of culture to offer, like the culture and multimedia house DOKK1.
