As much as I enjoy spending time in Bergen, it’s the road trips from Bergen to the fjords that are the highlight of this trip. If you’re looking to take a fjord cruise from Bergen, a day trip to the Sognefjord is an absolute must. We combined the fjord cruise from Gudvangen to Flåm with a stunning mountain road trip. And all this in one day!
A city trip to Athens is so much fun! Ancient ruins, sunny weather, and the most delicious Greek food, what more could you want? But before you start dreaming about your first glimpse of the Acropolis (I’ve got a separate post with all the best sights) or planning a route past cozy cafés in Plaka, there are some handy and practical tips that can make your trip just that little bit easier and more fun. Like the best time of year to visit Athens, how to get around, and when to book a table if you want to eat with the locals.
So here are the travel tips I wish I’d known before my first trip to Athens.
My love for the Scandinavian countries only grows stronger with every visit. After my amazing city trip to Oslo, I knew I wanted to see more of Norway, especially its breathtaking natural landscapes. So we planned six days in Bergen, giving us time to explore the city and go on a couple of road trips to the fjords. We ended up renting a car for two days so we could do two separate day trips from Bergen—one to the Sognefjord and one to the Hardangerfjord.
