G Adventure travellers are seeking extensions to their Norwegian expeditions, so the adventure travel company has responded by adding a new Scottish land-based itinerary as an optional add-on to three of their 2020 Norwegian expeditions.
The new three-day itineraries (which are on sale now) include two days in Edinburgh and one in the Scottish Highlands, offering travellers a taste of Scotland in addition to their Norway Expedition.
“Over the past 12 months, we have seen an increase in requests from travellers seeking additional hotel nights either before or after their Norway Expedition departure, to allow them to explore the sites of Edinburgh and further afield,” Yves Marceau, Vice President of Product at G Adventures said.

Travellers will explore the old town of Stirling, visit Wallace Monument and learn about the infamous battle of Bannockburn before visiting Deanston Distillery to taste real single malt scotch whiskey.
The three new itineraries for 2020 include the 16-day Explore the Norwegian Fjords and Scottish Highlands, the 16-day Cruise the Norwegian Fjords with Scottish Highlands and The 18-day Norwegian Arctic and Scottish Highlands Encompassed.
