Our packages combine multiple travel components into coordinated itineraries. As a Bergen-based company with decades of experience, we've learned which combinations work smoothly and which create logistical headaches. These pre-arranged tours handle accommodation, transport, and activity bookings in advance.
A package typically includes transportation, accommodation, and key activities bundled together. You travel independently following our detailed itinerary, but skip the complexity of booking Norwegian trains, coordinating cruise schedules, and timing connections yourself.
Packages differ from simple accommodation bookings or single-activity tours. They coordinate multiple components across different providers – railway and cruise companies, ferry operators, hotels, activity providers, and sometimes restaurants with advance booking requirements.
Norway's transport network requires understanding connection times, seasonal schedules, and backup options when weather disrupts plans. We build this knowledge into package design.
The alternative means booking everything separately: Norwegian railway tickets, multiple ferry operators, accommodation in small villages with limited English websites, and activities that may sell out months ahead. Packages consolidate this complexity.
Winter packages focused on Arctic experiences combine aurora viewing with dog sledding, accommodation above the Arctic Circle, and transport to locations with low light pollution. These typically run 4-7 days and concentrate in Tromsø, Alta, or Lofoten during September through March.
Timing matters more than location — clear skies and solar activity determine success. Packages build in multiple viewing nights to improve odds.
Urban-focused packages combine city accommodation with day trips to nearby attractions. Bergen packages often include fjord cruises. Oslo packages incorporate museum passes and Michelin restaurant reservations that book months in advance.
Duration runs 3-4 days, suited to weekend breaks or short holidays. These work year-round with different seasonal focuses.
Two to four-day packages designed for quick Norway experiences. Many center on specific highlights — the Flåm Railway, Norway in a Nutshell, or focused regional exploration.
These compress Norway's highlights into tight timeframes. We've refined these itineraries to maximize experience without creating exhausting schedules.
Art, history, and heritage-focused packages connect museums, UNESCO sites, and cultural attractions across multiple cities. The Underdogs of Art series links Oslo, Kristiansand, and Stavanger's art scenes. Oslo cultural packages combine multiple museums with guaranteed restaurant reservations.
These suit travelers prioritizing cultural depth over nature activities. Duration typically runs 3-7 days depending on how many cities you visit.
Packages built around Michelin-starred dining experiences that require advance reservations. We secure guaranteed tables at restaurants that book months ahead, combining them with city accommodation and sometimes regional food experiences.
These work as add-ons to longer trips or standalone culinary-focused breaks. They concentrate in Oslo, Bergen, and Stavanger where Michelin restaurants cluster.
Larger packages combine fjord cruises, scenic railways, and multiple regions. The Grand Fjord Tour uses three different train lines with fjord ferries and mountain accommodation.
These run 5-12 days and show more of Norway's geographic diversity. They require more vacation time but deliver comprehensive experiences.
You receive detailed day-by-day itineraries before departure. These specify which trains to catch, where to collect ferry tickets, hotel check-in details, and timing for each component. Pre-booked tickets get delivered electronically.
You travel independently — no group, no guide, no fixed schedule beyond transport connections an key activities. This suits travelers who want organized logistics without group tour constraints.
Most packages allow some customization — extra nights in specific locations, upgraded accommodation, or additional activities. The core transport and accommodation structure remains fixed to maintain coordination.
Season determines options. Winter packages focus on Northern Lights and Arctic activities. Summer packages open hiking and full railway networks. Some routes close seasonally — the Rauma Railway reduces service in winter.
See our seasonal timing guide for month-specific details on what operates when.
Your available time matters. Packages running 3-4 days cover one region thoroughly. Seven-day packages span multiple regions. Longer trips cross the entire country from Oslo to Arctic Kirkenes.
Interest focus guides package choice. Nature-focused travelers gravitate toward fjord cruise combinations. Culture enthusiasts choose museum and art packages. Food lovers book culinary-centered itineraries.
Most packages begin in Bergen or Oslo due to airport access and railway connections. Some Northern Lights packages start in Tromsø where direct flights from European hubs reach Arctic Norway.
