Magic of Islands and Fjords
May 23 – June 6, 2008
15 Days/14 Nights

Trip Code: PS78-13

This magical journey takes you by sea from the Scottish Isles to the coast of Norway and Arctic Svalbard as spring reawakens these northern regions. From ancient times to today, the area is rich in a fascinating history and we will see “standing stones”, “brochs” and more. Spring is also a magical time for bird watching as it is nesting season and the cliffs are crowded. As we reach our northern destination it is possible to see the “king of the north” – the Polar Bear and perhaps walrus and other northern species. Join us for this remarkable voyage as we experience the Scottish Isles and Norway past and present and the beautiful natural environment.
