Deep fjords indent the entire coast of Norway. Ships can sail far inland, passing tiny fishing villages and traditional farms, bright and crisp against a backdrop of snow-covered mountain peaks. The Vikings sailed from these very places, and their descendants have kept Norway among the world's greatest seafaring nations. "This Way Norway" highlights the country's history, culture and natural wonders, as enthralling under the summer midnight sun as in winter when the Northern Lights dance across the heavens.

South Africa remains enduringly beautiful. The irresistible lures of its game parks and nature reserves are enhanced by the fascinating evolution of a multicultural society learning to live in harmony. Discover, too, the charms of its neighbours; the water wonderland of Botswanas Okavango Delta; the lush landscape around Victoria Falls in Zambia. This way South Africa reveals the history, the culture, the mysteries of a region whose heart beats like the sound of distant drums.

Long ago, its explorers sailed the oceans, returning with riches and tales of the world's wonders. Today, Portugal invites the traveller to discover the charms of a friendly, accessible country. Urban renewal has modernised Lisbon, yet it is still as quaint as its jolting trams and cobbled streets. Picturesque mountain villages and crusty port towns come alive with colourful feiras and festas. This Way Portugal explores the country from the green valleys of the north-east to the golden beaches of the Algarve.
