A truly unique tour from Oslo to Portofino through Finland, the Baltics and central Europe

Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia and Italy. A unique event that explores some of Europe’s most extraordinary and seldom visited places.

No one has ever travelled Europe in this way as we take the Hurtigruten ship north from Bergen, driving by day and sleeping on board at night, before heading south through Finland to Helsinki. Crossing to Tallinn we then drive south through the Baltic states into Poland before making our way to Italy and finishing on the Ligurian coast.

So, what is so special about the Imperial Rally? 

Among the unique aspects of The Imperial Rally are using the Hurtigruten ferry as our floating hotel, visiting driving through Finland from the north to Helsinki and taking the ferry to Tallinn.

We then head into the Baltic states visiting Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania before visiting Warsaw and Krakow in Poland. Beautiful cities, historic buildings and superb scenery abound. Budapest in Hungary, one of Europe’s unspoiled cities follows. We have a day off here to check out the highlights including the vast Buda museum, the amazing parliament building, the thermal spa, Heroes Square and a number of amazing churches, all bordered by the Danube river. Our next drive is to one of the great hidden gems of Europe, Slovenia. So many things to do here including riding a train through ancient caves, Lake Bled and extraordinary roads in the mountains. Our final country is fabulous Italy where we go to Portofino via Vicenza. Portofino is one of those places that everyone has to visit at least once, set on an idyllic cove.

Norway  – The Land of Fjords

Following the ferry north is one of the best ways to see this great country. By night we are on the ship and by day we are out exploring the wonderful fjords, stunning scenery and the midnight sun.

Hurtigruten Ferry

We include an outside Arctic Superior cabin, all onboard meals, passage for your car and packed lunches. There are upgrade options to suites. This is the most luxurious way to travel along the coast of Norway as your hotel meets you each evening.

FINLAND

A new addition for us is the routing through Finland – the land of 1,000 lakes. From Kirkenes in Norway we stop enroute to Helsinki at Luosto, Oulu, Jyvaskyla and Naantali.

Incredible Italy

We visit magnificent Italy via Vicenza and our port of destination, the sublime Portofino. Our route takes us past Modena and the Ferrari Museum.
