Helgeland Bridge & Coastal Drive: Private Chauffeured Scenic Tour

Cross the magnificent Helgelandsbrua — one of Norway's most celebrated suspension bridges — on a private chauffeured tour that frames the Seven Sisters and the glittering archipelago in a sweep of unforgettable Arctic scenery.

What to expect

Your guide collects you at the pier in a comfortable private vehicle and sets out along the Helgeland Scenic Route. The bridge itself spans 1,065 metres across Leirfjord, its elegant suspension cables framing the Seven Sisters behind — a photograph you will never delete. The route continues through fishing villages, past fjord-side farms, and along ridgelines with sweeping island views before returning to port via the most scenic inland road.
