Norway

With rich history and culture; vibrant small cities full of storybook architecture and stylish Scandinavian design; and soul-stirring scenery that is unmatched elsewhere on Earth; Norway is a remarkable travel destination.

Sure, it’s expensive; but with landscapes of such raw beauty and grandeur, this is a unrivalled travel destination that should be near the top of any nature lover’s bucket list.

With its untouched wilderness and uncrowded trails, this is a country best experienced by walking, hiking and cycling through its majestic landscapes. Norway’s fjords in particular are so grand in scale and so staggering in their wild beauty that they need to be seen up close to be believed.

Head into the heart of Norway’s magnificent fjord country to hike alongside steep alpine landscapes carved by ice and marvel at Sognefjord, the world’s longest open fjord.

Pass tumbling glaciers, imposing mountains and fruit orchards in bloom as you cycle the Hardangerfjord, one of the world’s longest and most spectacular fjords; and walk among the dense forests, dreamy waterfalls and fairytale villages of the lush Flam and Aurland valleys.

Then head to picturesque Bergen, superbly framed by mountains and fjords, to wander cobbled streets and see the impossibly photogenic, candy-coloured architecture of the World Heritage Listed Bryggen old wharf.

Take a look at our unique active itineraries and start planning your once-in-a-lifetime Norwegian adventure!
