    Your affordable guided tour of Norway focuses on the country’s intact natural beauty with its glistening mountains, fjords, waterfalls, and glaciers. Start the Norwegian adventure in Oslo and explores the idyllic Norwegian landscapes and harbor towns—rich in the folklore of pirates, Vikings, and smugglers through the Napoleonic Wars.

Travel to Lillehammer, where the 1994 Winter Olympics took place, and known for its exciting art scene. Visit Hamar on the shores of Lake Mjøsa—one of the deepest lakes in Europe. Here, you’ll also visit a spectacular open-air museum and the remains of a 950-year-old cathedral. Upon your return to Oslo, your guided sightseeing tour includes an outdoor exhibition of the sculptures of famed Norwegian artist Gustav Vigeland. You’ll fall in love with Norway’s beauty, culture, and history on your escorted Norwegian tour. Norway’s magic will stay with you long after your affordable travel adventure.
