    This was our second trip arranged by TourRadar and it was delightful! The itinerary is a good mix of independent time and tour time, if one chooses add on excursions. We enjoyed the Oslo tour, the Glacier Park tour, and the fjord cruise out of Bergen. We stayed at the upgraded hotels and they were wonderful. The rooms were lovely, the breakfast buffets were memorable, and the hotels were an easy walking distance to excursions and our independent activities. The upgraded package offers two dinner buffets in Balestrand that are not to be missed. All the arrangements worked well and so the time in Norway was stress free. The only small inaccuracy was that the Bergen airport bus voucher had the incorrect platform on it. However, since the platform was only a block from the hotel, it was easy to realize where we needed to be. In short, a great itinerary, well managed, and in a beautiful country! One of my all time favorite trips!i

    We absolutely loved our trip to Norway! The self guided tour provided just enough of the logistics assistance to make travel so easy. We upgraded our hotel options and fell in love with the Clarion The Hub and the Hotel Kviknes. Balestrand was an absolutely magical stop and the glacier tour was well worth it! We were less impressed by the Magic Ice bar and would not recommend this in Bergen. Overall the experience was fabulous and we will not hesitate to book another adventure with Tour Radar. Thank you for making our trip so easy!

    Everything worked perfectly and the beauty of the places exceeded my expectations. Very well organized tour, amazing lansdcapes, and nice hotels. The panoramic tour in Oslo was very well organized, and I could see a lot of this beautiful city in a very short time. The travelling itself is part of the experience, with the panoramic views from the trains and the cruises through the fjords. I enjoyed specially the Hotel Kviknes in Balestrand, the breathtaking beauty of the views and a classic historic hotel, the wonderful dinners at the dining room with the view of the fjords, it felt llike travelling back in time to the vacations of my childhood... Bergen also was magical, with the Bryggen wooden houses combined with the gorgeous views from the Floibanen. As I said at the beginning: everything was perfect. I would definitely recommend this tour and I wanted to thank Tour Radar for the organization of this self guided tour were every detail was taken care of. Would love to come back!

    The tour is great. We took 4 star hotels and they were all very good, very well located, both for access to the city centers and to the means of transport (train station, airport, etc.) and the breakfasts were very good and varied. The only negative aspect is that we took the organized Fjord and Glacier excursion from Balestrand with Tourradar for 4 people (2 adults and 2 girls). I understand that Tourradar charges us more for each trip, but it doesn't seem right that they charge us for 4 adult excursions when the ones for children under 16 were half the price and my daughters are 13 and 15. I do not know if it is a problem of the company that organizes it in Norway, but Tourradar should take it into account because it is 145€ more that they charged us.

    Just finished our tour. Everything went smoothly and the staff at Tour Radar were quick to respond when I had a question while traveling. The hotel rooms in Oslo and Bergen were a bit small. I would recommend the upgrade but the locations and breakfasts in both were excellent. Our favorite hotel, by far, was the Kivnes in Balestrand. Just beautiful and right on the fiord. Thank you Tour Radar!

    The excursions were very enjoyable. The hotels were great - very clean and well located within walking distance of downtown, trains and buses. The paperwork pre-tour was prompt and and very well explained. Any questions I had were promptly responded to.
