Flam

Flaam is a small town with about 500 inhabitants. It is part of the municipality of Aurland, the typical example of a rural Norwegian municipality.

Flam is a good starting point for all those looking for authentic natural and cultural experiences.

Despite its small size, Flaam continues to be a destination throughout the year. The Flåmsbana is undoubtedly the most famous attraction in Flaam. This spectacular railway connects Flaam with the city of Myrdal.
What makes the station so amazing is largely the combination of the height difference of 863.5 meters. Every year, about 585,000 travelers experience traveling on one of the steepest railway lines in the world on normal tracks.

Bergen

Surrounded by seven hills and seven fjords, Bergen is a beautiful, charming city with beauty and entertainment for all tastes. With the bustling port of Vågen as its centrepiece, Bergen climbs up the hills with hundreds of timber-clad houses, while cable cars offer splendid views from above. Great museums, friendly people and a dynamic cultural life make Bergen a popular destination in recent times, also thanks to the surrounding natural beauty. The wonderful natural beauties of this region will leave you speechless. HardangerFjord, Sognefjord and Geirangerfjord are similar if we consider some aspects such as: steep walls of crystal- clear rock plummeting with sublime force directly into the sea, often decorated with waterfalls and small farms that blend harmoniously with the natural landscape.

Skagen

Skagen is a Danish town located in the North Jutland region on the northernmost tip of the island of Vendsyssel-Thy. It is part of the municipality of Frederikshavn. In the vicinity of Skagen, frequented by tourists, there is Grenen, a strip of sand that extends to the north-east at the point where the two seas Skagerrak and Kattegat meet, generating turbulence that makes navigation difficult. For this reason, special signs sanction the ban on bathing. It is often possible to witness the characteristic clash of waves coming from opposite directions. The old Vippefyr lighthouse, was built in the fifteenth century and later destroyed. There is a reconstruction north of the city. In the seventeenth century it was replaced by the Hvidefyr (white lighthouse). In turn replaced by the taller Gråfyr (grey lighthouse) of 1850, still present. To the south of the city there is the Tilsandende Kirke, a church buried by the sand. Currently visible and visitable is only the bell tower. Further attractions are represented by the numerous museums and art galleries. Among the museums, we point out the Skagens Museum which exhibits the major works of the Skagen painters.

Copenaghen

Copenhagen, literally "port of the merchants", is the capital of Denmark and one of the country's most densely populated cities. Originally a city mainly inhabited by fishermen, it became a fundamentally important port for trade.
Copenhagen is a year-round tourist destination and in summer the flow of tourists increases considerably thanks to Northern Europe cruises.

It is very common to add a stay in the city before a cruise, to take in its distinguishing relaxing atmosphere and see what it has to offer. Among its famous attractions you cannot miss the statue of the Mermaid which is located right at the entrance to the port and the Tivoli Gardens, one of the world's largest amusement parks, opened in 1843 and loved by everyone.

Copenhagen (København in Danish and 'Copenaga' in Italian [no source]) is the capital and the most populous city of Denmark with 518,574 inhabitants in the municipality (1,167,569 in the urban area). The city stretches across the islands of Sjælland and Amager and is separated from the city of Malmö in Sweden by the strait of Øresund.
