Norway is the westernmost of the three Scandinavian countries, encompassing the island of Jan Mayen and the Svalbard archipelago to the northwest. Best known for its deep and complex network of fjords along the west coast stretching from the North Sea into the Arctic Ocean, Norway is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Mountains plunging into the sea, the midnight sun during summer and the darkness of winter with the northern lights unfolding above you are all just part of the amazing natural attractions. The capital, Oslo is a city of grand museums and art galleries to rival anywhere on the continent. As well as the innovative architecture, you’ll find upmarket restaurants and trendy cafes where you can relax after a long day of exploring Norway’s many landscapes. In Scandinavia, travelling by ferry is a popular mode of transport given the quantity of islands. Norway has a large number of ports on its southern coast, offering numerous routes to both international and domestic destinations.
Shetland encompasses over a hundred islands to the north of Scotland, forming a subarctic archipelago in the North Sea. Britain’s northernmost point; where Scandinavia meets Scotland, the Shetland Islands captivate visitors with their unique heritage, striking coastlines and beguiling countryside. While the human population is warm and friendly, the animals inhabiting these shores are just as memorable, ranging from puffins and dolphins to the famous namesake pony. They also have plenty to keep history-lovers occupied, with numerous well-preserved archaeological sites. Many have been dated further back than the Vikings, who left their mark on everything from place names to local dialects, including Iron Age brochs and mystical standing stones. Ferries make the overnight journey from Aberdeen, on the east coast of Scotland, seven times a week, while there are less frequent, but shorter, routes available from the Orkney Islands, an archipelago to the southwest of Shetland.
