Roughly two-thirds of the country is covered in mountains, deep glacial fjords, and over 50,000 islands. While there are parts of Norway that will not be available to visit during your exciting Norway tour, we promise that you will not be disappointed with the parts that you are able to see.

  • Ensure that you have exchanged your dollars and Euros for Norwegian Krone or else you won't get far in terms of spending
  • If you aren't able to speak Norwegian don't worry, most Norwegians can speak English. They may be shy to carry on full conversations, but they can understand enough to help you out with any questions you may have
  • Norway is one of the safest countries in the world, with an extremely low crime rate
  •  Some attractions are only open during a certain season, so be sure to do your research before booking your tour
  • Be sure to bring an extra layer of clothing, regardless of the season that you are visiting in. The weather can be a little unpredictable
  • Wild camping is something that is popular in Norway, meaning that in most of the country you can pitch a tent wherever you please unless it is stated otherwise
  • Most Outdoor Locations and National Parks are free to access and use, but be sure to clean up after yourself

Norway Tours Things To Do

  • Visit and Explore Mount Floyen
    Visit and Explore Mount Floyen

    If you are looking to experience the best vistas across Bergen then you have to come and see Mount Floyen, which has a summit that overlooks the entire city. While you are able to hike the paths that will take you up the 399-meter climb, you can also opt to take the funicular railway to the top and avoid exhaustion. Once you arrive at the top you can gaze out over the entire city and vista and really take in the absolutely breathtaking view. Another bonus is the Floyen Folk Restaurant which has amazing food and traditional music recitals all year round.   

    You Should Know

    The hike up the mountain is rather relaxed, and you can also rent bikes from the city to help with the ascent. Don't let the height scare you, walking or biking will give you some incredible photo opportunities.

  • Visit Oslo Cathedral
    Visit Oslo Cathedral

    While in Oslo it is customary to visit the Oslo Cathedral, which happens to be one of the main draws to the city. The Cathedral, built in the 11th century, is still in its original form and offers you some absolutely breathtaking architectural features, as well as incredible pieces of art. The style of the church is baroque, and it was the first church to ever be established in Norway. The history of the cathedral is something that you may want to dive deeper into, but today the Cathedral is still functioning and is often used for iconic events, such as those of the Royal family.   

    Best Time To Visit

    If you are looking to attend a service at the cathedral, we mentioned that it is fully functioning, offering a variety of services throughout the week. However, it does get quite busy so we suggest deciding on a certain time and being early.

  • Ferry Rides
    Ferry Rides

    While on one of our tours there will be chances to take Ferry rides across various bodies of water. With so many various islands and inlets to see sometimes a Ferry ride is the only way to see them. While the Ferry's you will be boarding will be tours that last a few hours, there are some Ferry's that set sail for days at a time to show you even more of Norway. Rest assured, the Ferry rides that we have booked for you will show you some incredible sights while you are here.   

    You Should Know

    The climate in Norway can change rapidly, dropping temperatures rather fast. We do suggest, especially on the Ferry rides, to have jackets with you, as well as rain ponchos in case of inclement weather.

  • Take a Tour Through Akershus Castle
    Take a Tour Through Akershus Castle

    Akershus Castle was built during the medieval period in 1299 and was meant to be a protection for Oslo from any enemy invasions. Over the years the uses of this fortress changed, becoming a renaissance castle, and even a prison in more modern times. Today it is used by the Norwegian Ministry of Defense, and you are able to visit the castle and get a lesson in some of the History of Medieval Norway. You are also able to view some of the pretties rooms here, such as the banquet rooms and chapel. The castle is also home to a variety of antiques that will show you a more in-depth history of the castle itself.   

    Best Time To Visit

    The castle is a very popular attraction and you are sure to find crowds regardless of the time of year that you visit. To get the most out of your experience we do suggest visiting in the morning, before noon.

  • Go Sightseeing at the Vigeland Sculpture Park
    Go Sightseeing at the Vigeland Sculpture Park

    Norway is known for many things, including food, music, and architecture, but they also pride themselves in being the home to some incredible artists, including sculptor Gustav Vigeland. At the Vigeland Sculpture Park you will find over 200 incredible pieces by this amazing artist. Not only is the park full of incredible sculptures, it is also the biggest sculpture park in the world that has a single artist focus. The park is home to some astounding pieces, and eerie pieces as well. Do not be alarmed to find skeletons in the tree branches while enjoying your tour!  

    Best Time To Visit

    For some of the best photo opportunities we do suggest visiting in the early evenings. The sunset through the park is incredible, and some of the sculptures have an even more dramatic look in the twilight. 

  • Take a Walk Through the Viking Ship Museum
    Take a Walk Through the Viking Ship Museum

    Of course one of the main things people seem to know about Norway is our Viking history. While there are not any Viking settlements left in present-day Norway, at the Viking Ship Museum you can take a step back in time and see what things were like back then. Don't let the name fool you, it's not all boats in this museum, but some well-preserved artifacts from the time period as well. There are three longboats in the museum that have been dated back to the ninth century and are in incredible shape. One of the most famous ships is the Oseberg Boat, which was said to have been used in funerary arrangements as a burial vessel specifically for Viking nobility.   

    You Should Know

    The museum can get fairly busy regardless of the time that you visit, so we suggest adding it to your list, and hoping for entrance during your time here. Be prepared to come back at different points throughout the day to try again.

  • Travel to Lillehammer
    Travel to Lillehammer

    Sitting close to the scenic Lake Mjosa, Lillehammer is one of the top tourist destinations for domestic and international travelers alike. Malhaugen Park, one of the main attractions here, takes the form of an open-air museum, showcasing over 100 ancient buildings that give you a glimpse into Norway's past. Some of these buildings include churches, farmhouses, and even workshops from the 18th century.   

    Best Time To Visit

    We suggest visiting in the winter months as you will be able to try out skiing, skating, curling, or even snowshoeing through some of the amazing Nordic trails that are in the area.

  • Take a Tour of the Royal Palace
    Take a Tour of the Royal Palace

    While you are in Norway you need to make sure that you leave yourself time to tour the Royal Palace. Constructed at the beginning of the 19th century, the palace was meant to be the residence of King Charles iii who dies before the work was finished. Now it is home to King Harald V and Queen Sonja, and in the summer months, you are able to visit and tour some of the rooms here. One incredible room is the bird room where there are over 40 species of birds on display. There is also the Hall of Mirrors and the Grand Hall, both of which have intricate crystal chandeliers that are admired by all who see them.  

    Best Time To Visit

    As we stated, the palace can only be toured during the summer months of so be sure to take that into consideration when deciding on the time of year that you wish to book your Norway Tour.

Norway Tour Packages

Quick Facts

The climate in Norway varies a bit in each part o the country. In the northern and inland regions, the temperatures are usually lower, and the coastal regions have a milder climate. Like many other places, the best time to visit Norway is in the shoulder seasons (Spring and Fall). 

  • Summer - June to august

    While the summer is a gorgeous time to visit you will be joined by many other tourists who flock to Norway in the summer. Between mid-June and mid-August is the high season for Norway, and we suggest avoiding that in order to get as much as you can out of your trip. Fewer people mean less wait times, which means more chances to get to see everything that you possibly can during your time here. 

  • Winter - December to February

    If you are looking for some time to get skiing in while you are here, which Norway has incredible conditions for, then we suggest visiting between November and February, when skiing weather and temperature are ideal. The deeper into the winter you go, the harsher the cold will be, but if you bundle up correctly then it shouldn't be that bad.

Reviews for Norway Tours and Vacations

This is our 10+ guided tour with Insight and the tour was fantastic, food was great. rooms were exceptional, and included and optional tour experiences were unique and once in a lifetime. Insight keeps you in 5-star or 4-star hotels located in the central business district in each place. This was a small group tour to see the Northern lights in Finland and Norway. Because of the cloud cover we could not see the Northern lights in Ivalo in Finland, but we were lucky to see the Northern lights in Nordkapp (North Cape) in Norway. Nordkapp is the northernmost living habitat in Europe and seeing the Northern Lights was once in a lifetime experience. The vegetarian food at Ivalo hotel (Day 2) was fabulous and very delicious. The optional tours offered for snowmobile, Alaskan huskies dog sleigh, The Reindeer ride and dinner at Sami village in Tromso, visits to Ice hotel in Alta and Magic Ice in Tromso were fantastic. Our Tour Director and Bus Driver were outstanding. Many days were long days - For example, at Alta we went at night for mountain safari to see the northern lights almost 60 km from Alta where the sky was clear; and another occasion the Bus driver had to reroute the bus through Finland because of the road closure between Alta and Tromso in Norway. We had 15 people on our tour - mostly American, Australian, and Singaporean. Everyone was very polite and we got along very well and became great friends. During the road closure for a few hours, we stayed in a restaurant and played cards and shopped, and dined.

We truly enjoyed this trip and the experiences it offered. A few things had to be cancelled due to weather, but our tour guide found other things for us to do to make up for the cancellations. It was a great trip and we, definitely, would travel with Insight Tours again.
