Norwegian fjords travel tips (2024)

Norwegian Fjords – Travel tips

The best way to visit the Norwegian fjords is by joining a fjord cruise package based on eco-friendly travel by local transport. The trips include all transport & hotels en route, amazing fjord cruises and spectacular train rides such as the Flam Railway & the Bergen Line. Most of the trips start in Oslo, but there are also trips starting in Bergen. The trips are independent (you will travel like a local, not with a group).

You can choose between trips with day fjord cruises & overnight at hotels, or trips with overnight cruises on Hurtigruten ships.

I wanted to thank everybody. We had a wonderful trip. Everything went well and fortunately we had the chance to see the lights while on the cruise. All my friends in Turkey would like to go on a similar trip. So I will be in touch with you. Thanks again and best wishes to all of you.

On behalf of the group I would like to thank you and your colleagues for organizing our wonderful tour of Norway. Everything went very well including the weather, which was spectacular.We enjoyed all the hotels, the central locations you chose and the amenities, especially the lavish breakfasts. Three extra days in Oslo allowed us to tour the city at our leisure and to enjoy more of the important sights including the newly opened National Museum.The Norway in a Nutshell tour was amazing and made much easier by using your recommended porterage service between hotels in Oslo and Bergen. Both the train journeys and the boat trip were spectacular, and combined with a night in the beautiful Kviknes Hotel made for an unforgettable two days.We were very impressed by the Hurtigruten cruise, particularly the way they combined a working ship with a cruise ship, the comfortable accommodations, the food and service. It was fascinating to visit all the various ports, islands and fjords and the two included tours were excellent and informative. In the end we were glad to have the extra night in Kirkenes, to visit their lovely museum and take a trip to the Russian border. It was a good way to end the tour.Again, thank for staying with us through 2 years of pandemic postponements and changes. We certainly will recommend Fjord Travel in the future.
