Northern Lights tour with Insight Vacations was very well designed to maximize the experience. The tour leader Zsofi was exceptional and our most capable driver Iceman Tom made it an unforgettable experience. I loved the ease of the pace...no rush mornings as most of the activities were later into the day to ensure you were brighteyed and bushy tailed (awake) for the nighttime spectacle we came for...lady Aurora Borealis. And what a,show the fair lady put on for us...we saw her on nights 2 and 3 of the tour. Our hearts were thrilled. Mission accomplished...bucket list checked.

Norway Coach / Bus Tour Reviews

Loved the tour and destinations visited.

Trafalgar was great. Norway was beautiful.

This was a scenic trip. The tour guide Rosie and our driver Macek were wonderful. The low points were the hotel accommodations at times but we were there not for the hotel ambiance but for the beauty of nature. Overall a great tour. Will strongly recommend it to friends and hope to go on another tour with Rosie and Macek again in the future

WHY TRAVEL TO NORWAY TOURS?:

Norway is our specialist region and our home. Norway is a country where you can experience plenty of space - traversing away from the crowds on foot with vistas only limited by the curving of the earth. Cruising through the Norwegian fjords on board one of the Hurtigruten ships , or simply frolic through the back streets of Tromsø at 3am when the midnight sun is on your face.

Winter or summer travel in Norway provide a vast difference in the experience you will have. From snow-capped mountains bathed in spectacular Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis to a late evening trek possible from the midnight sun.

OUR NORWAY TOURS CAN INCLUDE:

Our Norway travel and tour options are endless and depending on what you want to experience, we have a tour suitable for any age and interest.

The Norwegian Coastal Voyage from Bergen to Kirkenes and vice versa is a classic voyage taking you all the way from the Hanseatic town of Bergen along the spectacular Norwegian coast to the town on Kirkenes on the Russian border. Along the journey you will experience stunning fjords, cliffs that plummet more than 1000 metres into fjords, small mountain farms clinging to the mountainside and rugged coastline.

For a true taste of all that Norway has to offer, take our independent Beautiful Norway tour package travelling on a private 50 Degrees North minibus through the most picturesque fjords and valleys of Norway. Driving through Northern Europe's highest and most striking mountain pass will truly take your breath away.

Alternatively, travel between Oslo and Bergen on the Norway in a Nutshell tour experiencing the Flåm railway, fjord cruise, bus ride, waterfalls, flowing rivers and deep valleys. Definitely one to tick off your bucket list!

Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis in Norway are at their most frequent between end of September and end of March. A range of our Norwegian and Scandinavian tours have been made to maximise your chances of viewing this remarkable phenomenon. Tromsø is a great starting point for the Norwegian tours, but to maximise your experience, all our Northern Lights tours are away from the cities to avoid artificial light pollution.

For the ultimate adventure, hike with jaw-dropping views of Norwegian fjords and mountains. You will never forget hiking Trolltunga and Pulpit Rock or the Western Fjords Hike.

Of course, a tour to Norway is not complete without visiting our tranquil and picturesque capital city Oslo. Home to the Viking Ship and Kon-Tiki museums, the unique statue park of Gustav Vigeland, Holmenkollen ski jump and Akershus Fort.

Good morning

Good evening

"Scandinavia is just as much and sometimes more about the journey than the destination. It is like watching national geographic out the window as we're driving around the Norwegian Fjords. Driving in to Geiranger in Norway is one of the most stunning drives you can do in the world. I've visited 80 countries and haven't seen any better yet"

Lasse, Travel Director

Explore Norway's rich seafaring heritage in Oslo

Norway’s remarkable seafaring heritage will unfold in the capital of Oslo, which sits at the head of a 60-mile fjord with a mountainous vista. Spend time walking through four nautical museums clustered together in Bygdøy, and be amazed by ships, instruments, treasures and artefacts from saltier days gone by.

Drive north past fjords, lakes and forests

With this country’s astonishing arrangement of sea, sky and rock, there’s no better way to explore than by taking the road. You will find true appreciation for Norway as we wind past fisherman’s cabins, berry farms and tranquil lakes towards the forests and soul-stirring fjords.

See the beautifully preserved wooden buildings of Stavanger

Travel back to the 18th century with a visit to Gamle Stavanger, a neighborhood of historically preserved houses. Originally home to the sardine canning industry, these white cottages will delight you with their gabled terracotta roofs, cobbled pavements, black lanterns and overflowing flower boxes.

Tour up the hillside by funicular railway in Bergen

Connecting the centre of Bergen with the mountain of Fløyen is the funicular railway, where two vehicles counterbalance each other using cable traction up an inclined slope. The only railway of its kind in Scandinavia, it is one of the most popular things to do in Norway. Admire unrivalled views during this 6-minute voyage.

See the world's best-preserved Viking ships in Oslo

Oslo is home to the world’s best-preserved Viking ships, with a beauty that is testament to both their preservation and original craftsmanship. Take time to view the intricate Viking sagas carved into many of these longships, which were often considered so important their owners were buried in them.

Our top 5 things to do in Norway

Norway’s intrepid history, emotional terrain and European location provide an intriguing mix of activities. Travel with Trafalgar and we will show you the very best.

Viking Ship Museum

Take in the world’s best-preserved Viking ships, the Gokstad, at the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo. These black, ornate treasures whisper the secrets of Norway’s heritage and highlight the immense skill required for crafting these vessels. Spare time for the Oseberg, a ship used as burial for two women surrounded by burial gifts that can still be seen.

Fortress of Akershus

Strategically located at the very end of Oslo’s headland, the Fortress of Akershus was built in the 1300’s to house and protect the royal. One of the best things to do in Oslo, you will feel the weight of history in a space that withstood a number of sieges throughout the ages and later served as a military base.

Kon-Tiki Museum

Step into the ultimate museum for adventurers and explorers, the Kon-tiki Museum in Oslo. This space is home to a library of 8,000 books as well as vessels and maps pertaining to the infamous 1947 Kon-tiki expedition led by Norwegian writer and explorer, Thor Heyerdahl. Be transported to Polynesia, South America, the Galapagos and beyond.

Best museums in Norway

With a famed history of explorers from the Vikings to Thor Heyerdahl, the museums we visit have rich stories that combine education and enjoyment. Journey with Trafalgar and you will feel Norway’s history at your fingertips.

The Norwegian lefse is a flatbread, strikingly similar to the Mexican tortilla or North Indian roti, with the Nordic variety made with flour and milk or cream with various Nordic fillings. Try it savoury with potatoes and sweet with cinnamon and brown sugar.

Pickled Herring

Experiment with slithers of herring during your Norway trip, trying this fish smoked above a fireplace, raw, boiled, buttered or simmered in beer. A big part of the Norwegian diet still to this day, this meal is a cultural necessity when visiting even if the initial concept makes you squirm.

Traditionally served in Autumn to mark the rounding up and returning of grazing mountain sheep, the lamb, cabbage and potato stew of fårikål can now be enjoyed year-round. Considered the national dish of Norway, it’s a must during trips to Norway, particularly when cool weather rolls in.

Best food in Norway

Enjoy traditional Norwegian food in the very place the meals originated. With simple ingredients and rich flavours, the dishes we share with you on a trip to Norway will connect you with the authentic culinary heritage of the country.

What to pack for Norway

Mountain boots

Even if your Norway holiday is more focused on museums and restaurants than trekking and outdoor activities, wearing mountain boots will make you feel at home with the Norwegian spirit. Even if all you do in them is eat fårikål and drink mulled wine.

Sleeping mask

During the Norwegian summer, there are times when the sun never goes down. Pack a sleeping mask if you need a complete blackout in order to sleep.

Even during the winter, ice fields and glacier territory can reflect the sun and burn your skin. Pack sunscreen to save a crimson glow appearing in your holiday photos.

Picnic blanket and a good book

Enjoy the scenery of Norway by finding a moment of stillness in a park with a blanket, a good book and a thermos of coffee. The picnic blanket may take up space in your bag, but it will double as extra warmth when the weather gets cool.

With lots of walking to be done in the forests, mountains and cities, plasters for blisters may prove useful during your trip; particularly if you’re wearing new shoes that haven’t been broken in.

Pack for sustainable travel

Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and reusable toiletry bottles.

Services provided by Nordic Visitor were excellent. Accommodation was lovely. Breakfast buffets were very good and had much to choose from. Provided meals were good with a chance to try local flavor. Transportation was seamless and very clean and comfortable. We covered a lot of distance and saw much beauty. Overall experience was excellent and memorable. This small group tour is full of nature, with some city visits and free time incorporated. I enjoyed the walking tours provided by Nordic Visitor. Although a busy trip, there was time in-between to relax on the boat and trains. Our tour leader, Erla, was excellent - informative, attentive, available and pleasant. I enjoyed travelling with the small group and met some very nice people. I would recommend Nordic Visitor and hope to travel with them again.

Frequently Asked Questions Norway Guided Tour Packages

You may have a few questions before you book one of these escorted holidays to Norway, so we’ve collected the most commonly asked ones for your convenience. If you’d like more in-depth information, check out this helpful Norway Travel Guide .

It’s also good to know that when you choose Nordic Visitor, you can Book With Confidence , safe in the knowledge that your payments are protected. To find out about our booking process, payments and more, please read our FAQs and booking terms .

1. WHAT IS A GUIDED SMALL GROUP TOUR?

A small group tour is where you travel with a group of fellow explorers and a knowledgeable local guide.

We cap the size of our groups at 16 people maximum. This lets you enjoy a personal experience where you can get to know your guide and learn all you can from them. Plus, exploring in a minibus means you’ll be able to visit places that large groups and coaches can’t get to.

2. WHY IS A LOCAL TOUR GUIDE IMPORTANT?

Having a local guide means you’ll enjoy an authentic travel experience in Norway. Not only will they share their favourite places with you, but you’ll also learn what makes Norway special from someone who calls it home.

3. WHAT IS THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO VISIT NORWAY?

The best time of year to visit Norway depends on what you’d like to see and do during your visit.

Our guided small group tours are available from May to September , when you can make the most of longer daylight hours in Norway . This means that on a Norway summer trip you can soak up the scenery well into the evening.

Plus, the weather in Norway tends to be mildest at this time of year. For instance, you can expect temperatures of around 16°C (61°F). This is ideal for sightseeing, along with outdoor activities like hiking and kayaking in Norway’s fjords.

While summer is a wonderful time to visit, Norway winter tours offer a different kind of experience. Indeed, if you’re hoping to tick seeing the aurora borealis off your bucket list, then you’ll want to head to Northern Norway between October and April .

Opt for a Norway northern lights tour and you could soon find yourself chasing the aurora through the Arctic Circle’s snow-dusted landscapes.

Although there are no small group tours in winter, you can still enjoy guided excursions on a partially guided Norway trip . Alternatively, choose to travel independently on a Norway fjord cruise and train package , where we take care of all the planning for you.

To find out more, you can read this blog on the best time to visit Norway . Or, check out this article and discover the best time and place to see the northern lights in Norway .

4. HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL THERE BE IN THE GROUP?

The maximum number of guests on an escorted trip to Norway is 16. Keeping the group small means you’ll have more time to soak up your tour guide’s local knowledge. And, you’ll also get to know your fellow travellers better than you would in a large group.

This makes joining a group tour of Norway a great way to see the country if you'll be travelling on your own. Get inspiration for your next adventure by checking out these top guided trips in Europe for solo travellers . 

5. ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED TO JOIN?

Unfortunately, there are no guided small group trips suitable for kids in Norway.

If you are travelling with family, then we recommend checking out these child-friendly tours of Norway . On these trips, you can explore the country by road, rail or cruise. This type of independent travel is ideal for families as it gives you more flexibility.

Alternatively, browse our range of specially crafted family trips in Europe for more packages that have been designed for travelling with kids.

6. WHAT MEALS ARE INCLUDED?

Breakfast is provided each morning, so you can begin each day with plenty of energy. And, depending on the trip, some of your evening meals are also included. You can see exactly what meals are part of your tour package in the “what’s included” tab.

Norway is known as a seafaring nation so you can expect to encounter plenty of seafood on your trip. For example, you could sample delicacies like dried cod, which you’ll see airing on large racks if you visit the Lofoten Islands. Or head to Bergen and try Bergensk fiskesuppe, a creamy fish soup that’s a local speciality.

Don’t worry if seafood isn’t for you though, as there will be plenty of other dishes on offer as well. You’ll also find that the locals are partial to a number of tempting sweet treats, including pastries and waffles. The Norwegian take on the waffle is heart-shaped and tends to be enjoyed topped with sour cream and berries – delicious!

If you have any dietary needs, please let us know when you book so that we can make arrangements before you arrive.

7. WHAT SORT OF ROOMS WILL I BE STAYING IN?

Your Norway small group tour includes stays in hotels and guesthouses that have been handpicked for their comfort, cleanliness and friendly atmosphere. Plus, you can relax after a day of exploring, safe in the knowledge that each accommodation has been visited by us recently.

Usually, you’ll be able to choose from both double and twin rooms options when booking your trip. Pick your preferred room type online, so your travel consultant can make sure that everything is perfect for your trip.

If you’re travelling solo in Norway on a small group trip, you can rest assured that you’ll have your own private room. While not all tour providers would assign you a room of your own in this case, at Nordic Visitor your comfort and enjoyment is our priority.

It’s also worth mentioning that our hotels and guesthouses do not offer triple rooms.

8. WHAT LUGGAGE CAN I TAKE ON A SMALL GROUP TOUR?

You can bring one suitcase or large bag per person for your overnight items. We also recommend carrying a daypack for your daily essentials, such as a camera, extra layers and wallet.

During the trip, your luggage will travel with you on the minibus. When you arrive at a new overnight stop, we ask that you please take your bag to your room. And then you can bring it back onto the minibus the following morning for the next leg of your journey.

9. WILL THERE BE BATHROOM FACILITIES ON THE BUS?

Throughout your trip, your guide will transport the group between stops on a spacious minibus, rather than a large coach. This gives you better access to Norway’s attractions and allows you to take the road less travelled.

As such, it does mean that there won't be any bathroom facilities on the bus itself. But your guide will make sure that each day’s journey includes plenty of comfort breaks and opportunities to stretch your legs.

10. HOW MUCH LEG ROOM WILL I HAVE?

Each of our minibuses has been chosen so that you can relax and travel between stops in comfort on your guided tour. And, although our vehicles can seat 19 people, we allow up to 16 guests onboard to ensure there’s plenty of space.

Most of our tour buses are designed to accommodate the standing height and seating room of someone who’s just above 6’4” (193 cm). This means that even many of our taller guests can travel with ease. There will also be plenty of comfort breaks along the way where you can stretch your legs and enjoy some fresh air.

11. DO YOU TIP YOUR TOUR GUIDE IN NORWAY?

In Norway, tipping is generally not expected, so deciding to provide a gratuity is entirely up to you. Of course, if you’d like to show your thanks with a tip, then we’re sure your guide will appreciate it.

12. CAN I CHOOSE THE ARRIVAL DATE?

Yes, when you opt for a small group vacation package in Norway, you can choose the pre-scheduled departure date that works best for you. Take a look at the individual tour you’re interested in to see what dates are available.

If you have particular dates in mind, it’s best to book sooner rather than later so you don’t miss out.

Most Norway small group tours depart from May to August. But it’s good to know that some trips have a shorter season and are available from July to August.

If you can’t find a departure that suits you, then get in touch with us and a regional travel expert will help you to find your ideal trip.

13. CAN I EXTEND MY TOUR BY A DAY OR TWO?

Of course, you can extend your stay with additional nights at the start or end of your guided trip. This will give you some time to explore freely on either side of the escorted portion of your tour.

When booking your trip online, it’s easy to add extra nights to your itinerary. If your package is already confirmed, then you can get in touch with your travel consultant to discuss extending your time in Norway.

14. WHEN SHOULD I ORGANISE MY FLIGHTS?

Before booking your tour, we advise checking what flights are available for the dates that you’d like to travel on. But it’s best to hold off on purchasing flights until after your travel consultant sends your trip confirmation email.

After your package is confirmed by email, you can go ahead and purchase flights. Please get in touch with us if you have missed out on flights and we’ll do our best to accommodate a change of dates.

15. WHAT SHOULD I PACK FOR NORWAY?

Norway is a beautiful country whatever the weather, but it’s best to be prepared for a variety of conditions no matter when you’re visiting. Particularly as many of Norway’s attractions are natural spots.

The changeable weather means it’s a good idea to carry a small rucksack with some spare warm and waterproof layers. Your group tour will likely include some short walks, so a comfortable pair of walking shoes will also come in handy.

Here’s a basic packing list for your trip to Norway:

• Walking boots or shoes with good grip
• Waterproof jacket and trousers
• Insulated jacket
• Woollen or fleece jumpers
• Thermal base layers
• Warm hat, scarf and gloves
• Hiking socks
• Sunglasses and sun cream
• Swimwear  

For more information check out this Norway packing guide . And don’t forget, it’s also a good idea to organise personal travel insurance for your trip.
