Lyra Journeys

LYRA Journeys offers tailor-made travel experiences in Norway and the Nordic region, with a focus on handpicked boutique hotels and unique places to stay, nature, wellness, local cuisine, art and culture.

Each journey is designed around the guests’ interests, the season and their preferred pace. Accommodation, selected activities, local experiences and private transportation are combined into a seamless itinerary, with the details planned in advance while still allowing time and space to enjoy the places along the way.

The journeys are particularly suited to couples, friends and small groups looking for a more personal way to experience the Nordic region.

Experiences in Vestfold

One of LYRA Journeys’ signature trips is the Coastal Art & Wellness Escape, a journey through Vestfold and Telemark combining art, coastal landscapes, local cuisine and Nordic wellness. The itinerary may include art and cultural experiences in Sandefjord, Åsgårdstrand and Stavern, sauna and spa experiences, local food and carefully selected accommodation.

Along the way, the focus is on smaller places and local communities that still feel like living, authentic places rather than simply tourist destinations.

Tailor-made journeys

LYRA also offers individually tailored journeys based on guests’ own interests and preferences. Experiences can range from coastal destinations, farms and local food to hiking, cycling, boat trips, saunas, spas, and art, culture and heritage experiences.

LYRA works with local hotels, guides, restaurants and experience providers to create journeys that feel personal, seamless and firmly rooted in the local area.

LYRA Journeys is a member of the Norwegian Travel Guarantee Fund (Reisegarantifondet).

Østjordet Gård

Østjordet Farm on Tjøme is a family-run farm offering animals, farm life and activities for both children and adults.

Open Farm Day
On selected Sundays during the summer, the farm hosts Open Farm days. Visitors can meet the animals, explore the farm and take part in various activities. The animals include sheep and lambs in spring, horses and ponies, chickens, ducks, peacocks and rabbits.

Activities vary depending on the season and from one Open Farm day to another. Food and drinks are available for purchase, and visitors can spend time in the farmyard or relax by the fire pit.

Children’s birthday parties
Østjordet Farm also offers children’s birthday parties on selected days. Children can meet the animals and experience farm life, while the birthday child gets to be the farm helper and take part in activities such as feeding the animals.

During the rest of the year, daily life on the farm includes animal care and boarding for horses and ponies.

Dates and opening hours for Open Farm days are announced on Østjordet Farm’s website and Facebook page.
