What people love about Western Norway Tours
- Magic of the Fjords
The experience in Norway was fantastic - from the wonderful landscapes to the activities to the food and accommodations. The tour guide (Marina) was knowledgeable, engaging, and extremely helpful to ensure the trip was as smooth and fun as possible. The itinerary was engaging and there was so much beauty to see in Norway.
- Magic of the Fjords - 7 days
This tour delivers on the scenery at an affordable cost. Accommodations are good. Outstanding breakfasts at Clarion hotels. Good dinners in Balestrand. Using public boat transportation to Balestrand is less than ideal when going Bergen to Oslo route as to get window seats the queue for boarding we were told started at 6:30 for 8 am departure. We had interior seats so spent most of trip on top deck standing. Spoke to someone who rode 2 days later as you use next leg of route to Flam arrived 7:25 and got window seat. Why disappointing going Bergen to Oslo: as this was first viewing of the beauty you travel to see. Time in Balestrand is weather dependent for some activities. Lunch options in Balestrand very limited as 2 of 3 places outside hotel open at 14:00 and 15:00.
This tour was so much fun. I can’t say enough about the beauty of Norway. Each of the five hikes provided a unique aspect to the rugged, unique terrain. Nes Gard, the accommodations, friendly staff and absolutely wonderful food each evening, far exceeded my expectations. My only regret was that I had not gotten in just a bit better shape physically. I would call this tour “Hiking the Fjords.” That being said, it is just moderately strenuous and every step up the mountain is worth what awaits!
Walking the Fjords
What our customers ask about Western Norway Tours & Trips

Summer (June through September) brings mild temperatures of 18-20°C (64-68°F) perfect for outdoor activities and fjord cruising. The Clarion Admiral Hotel in Bergen reports its busiest period during July and August. Winter visits from November to March transform the landscape into a snow-covered wonderland with chances to see the northern lights. Many attractions operate on reduced schedules during winter months. According to TourRadar travelers "we were so fortunate to have great weather and enjoyed walking tours of the cities" while exploring Bergen Oslo and the fjords during summer months.
What are the must-see highlights on a general tour of Western Norway?
Western Norway's natural wonders center around the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord where the Seven Sisters waterfall cascades down steep cliffs. Bergen's historic Bryggen wharf preserves the area's Hanseatic heritage while the Flåm Railway winds through dramatic mountain passes. The Kviknes Hotel in Balestrand serves as a base for exploring Sognefjord. Visitors should plan stops at the Nigardsbreen Glacier and Hardangerfjord known for its fruit orchards.
