This small-group tour, with a maximum of 24 guests, is conducted in a comfortable minibus and combines authentic Viking history, fascinating museum exhibitions, immersive digital storytelling, and the breathtaking scenery of Norway's dramatic west coast into one unforgettable journey.

Travel to Avaldsnes, the birthplace of Norway, where Viking kings ruled more than a thousand years ago. Your visit begins at the authentic Viking Farm, beautifully located on the shores of the Karmsund Strait and featured in the popular Netflix series Norsemen. Step inside reconstructed Viking buildings, learn about everyday life during the Viking Age, and try traditional Viking activities such as axe throwing under the guidance of our knowledgeable local guides.

Your experience continues with a visit to the Nordvegen History Centre, where interactive exhibitions, archaeological discoveries, and captivating storytelling reveal the history of Avaldsnes as Norway's oldest royal seat. Together, the Viking Farm and the museum provide a unique combination of living history and historical insight.

After exploring Avaldsnes, enjoy a scenic drive through the beautiful coastal landscape surrounding Haugesund. Along the way, your guide will share fascinating stories about Viking history, local traditions, Norway's maritime heritage, and the region's modern development.

The tour ends in Haugesund city centre at The Viking Planet, where admission is included in your ticket.
