Since 1998, Authenticore has designed hundreds of journeys for all kind of groups.
That being said, every single group is unique, therefore, every single journey is also unique. There is one common thing to all the journeys we design: experience the true and authentic Norway, through human connections.
A story, a conversation with a local, a powerful meeting in the nature: that is what creates lasting memories!
The activities we offer will always include an element of either nature, culture or people encounter, and very often, all three together.
Activities can be pure leisure, such as kayaking, glacier walking, a rib-boat trip, dogsledding, bicycling, hiking, just to mention a few. We adapt each activity to your desires. You can just “lean back and enjoy”, or you can be more active and get really involved. One example is doglsledding, as a metaphor for leadership: we let the guests harness the dogs themselves, they learn about the “art of doglsledding” and get deeper understanding and insight for this outdoor activity. Another example is a sailboat experience for a few hours, where our guests actively participate.
These are just a few examples. There are endless activities to do and that we can offer.
We highly focus on sustainability, also when it comes to transport, and strive for a sustainable journey as much as possible. We may use very different transportation means during a journey, such as hydrofile or el-boats and ferries, historic boats, busses, historic trains, bikes, rib boats etc. Each of these have something to offer in order to explore Norway, whether on land or on the water.
Whenever possible, our first choice are accommodation places that reflect warmth and cosiness, whether these are run by a family or owners who put all their soul and heart into the place they run. We choose accommodation according to your wishes, and what we believe will be a good match to meet your expectations, whether it is a hotel with comfort, a lodge or historical place with charm or glamping in the nature.
Food has become a true jewel in Norway. There is a high focus on using “short distance” local products, prepared and served with love and care. We make sure you experience Norwegian specialties throughout your journey.
Have you already traveled quite a bit? Seen amazing sights? Tasted delicious local food?
What more can a trip in Norway offer you? What more can we offer you?
We wish to move you emotionally, not just physically throughout Norway. In addition to spectacular nature, yummy food and a “down to earth culture” that is quite unique, we will ensure genuine human encounters. You will hear stories directly from the locals, we will make room for convivial moments, you will experience the unexpected.
This is what will touch your heart and soul, and create lasting memories.
Why not use nature as a natural gathering place? We have plenty of ideas and possibilities to create an unusual atmosphere, which awakens all your senses, clearing your mind and soul.
Never does nature say one thing and wisdom another.
Juvenal, Satires
We invite our guests to dive deeply into Norwegian culture and traditions. We sincerely believe that the best way to experience this, is together with the people who have grown up in Norway, sharing their stories and lifestyle.
One destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
Henry Miller
We have assembled a broad network of enthusiastic professionals who create a more sustainable and innovative future. They are eager to meet you and share their insights with you.
You get educated by travelling.
Solange Knowles
We wish to share these special places in Norway, where passionate hosts and powerful nature are the compass for your inner and outer journey.
Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection.
Laurence Durrell
We have had several projects where guests work alongside the locals and create a masterpiece together.
140 guests contributed in building the yearly ice hotel in Alta, together with the locals. While half of the guests were building, the other half enjoyed a dogsledding tour in the wild nature. The bonding and sharing, working together, is what create authentic memories.
Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced.
John Keats
We invite you to experience the true and authentic Norway through activities that get you involved. Participation instead of consumption. As an example: together with local school children an insurance company (4 groups) cleaned nature paths and won the Green Award “Commitment to community”.
We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment.
Hilaire Belloc
what the purpose of your journey is, and we will design a journey in Norway that will not only move your physically through different places, but also emotionally. When you choose Authenticore to design your journey, you will take with you special and lasting memories back home.
