Viking Experience
Evening programme: Viking experience – at the homeland of the Viking Kings!
On Monday evening, you will be transported back in time via a short boat ride to Avaldsnes and the Homeland of the Viking Kings! For 3000 years, kings and princes ruled at Avaldsnes. They controlled the shipping traffic that was forced through the narrow straight of Karmsundet along Nordvegen which means «the way to the north" which is where the name Norway actually comes from. After a guided tour of the Viking village, you will be served an unforgettable Viking feast in historic surroundings, before being safely returned to the present and your hotel!
