Discover Things To Do In Norway

Sometimes unfairly referred to as the little brother of Denmark, Norway is a fascinating country with an interesting and varied history. Now a modern, liberal and developed country with excellent infrastructure, many of Norway's public services are the envy of the world. Norway has breathtaking nature and a vibrant city life, with Oslo being one of Scandinavia's most exciting cities.

Why visit Norway?

Year round, Gaustatoppen, Besseggen and Preikestolen are among the most famous mountains for hiking in Norway. Their majestic climbs and magnificent beauty make for an unforgettable hiking experience.

If you visit during summer, you will likely experience the Midnight Sun and in the Arctic Winter, between October-March, you may be lucky enough to see the Northern Lights! This natural phenomena sees the sky light up in green and white curtains of light, shifting in intensity. Discover the polar bears (in Svalbard only), Arctic foxes, reindeer and other species during your explorations of Norway - a magical winter wonderland for both couples and families.
