“I was born and raised in Norway, so this tour is especially close to my heart,” said Eric Segalstad, vice president, Gondwana Ecotours. “I designed this tour to explore Norway’s most iconic region — from mountain passes and glaciers to picturesque fjords cut between towering mountains. We explore charming coastal towns that effortlessly blend old-world charm with modern delights. Wander through colorful streets lined with wooden houses, and discover the warmth and hospitality of the locals, eager to share their rich cultural heritage with us.”
