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!

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.
Driving through New Zealand is without a doubt one of the travel highlights of last year. Partly because I managed to drive on the other side of the road for three weeks without hitting anything or anyone. But mostly because it's one of the most beautiful, impressive...
The Great Ocean Road is one of those so-called must-do’s when you visit the East Coast of Australia. And if there is one piece of advice I heard and saw over and over again, it's DON’T do the Great Ocean Road in one day. Rent a car and take at least three days. So of...
Once upon a time, not so long ago, there were these three London girls who were obsessed with a hill. Not just any hill. No, this hill had reached Instagram fame. Seriously, if this hill had its own Instagram account, it could make millions (#ad #spons)....
After Reykjavik and our journey along the South coast we arrive at Nesjavellir for the last part of our road trip: The Golden Circle. This is probably the most touristy part of Iceland. Located conveniently close to Reykjavik, this route covers some of the country’s most impressive sights.
The moment I see Reykjavik disappearing in the rearview mirror of our rented car, I’m starting to feel different. The landscape is changing and our road trip has now officially started. You can’t compare a capital like Reykjavik to any other capital in Europe. It often feels more like a village than a city. But you don’t go to Iceland for its urban life, you come to explore its extreme and magical landscape. And that’s what we’re doing now. We’re hitting the main road (route 1), pressing play on our Iceland road trip playlist, still not knowing exactly what’s waiting for us along the way.
It’s impossible to describe Iceland in just a few words. As we were driving through the country I realized that you can’t compare it to anything else. It’s so unique, so beautiful. And of course super photogenic.
I’m working on my photos which I hope to share with you very soon. But I also tried to capture our road trip in a little video, which will give you a nice preview of the upcoming stories and photos.
