They will also enjoy kayaking in the fjords, exploring Sognefjord and N?r?yfjord (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) by open Zodiac boat and a Hardangerfjord cider & farm experience which sees clients walk through the orchards the region is famous for and visit a local ?conomus?e farm to learn about cider production from the farm owners, whilst enjoying tastings.
