Norway Tours for Seniors
Our senior travelers consistently praise the well-planned Norwegian tours that offer comfortable ways to see the country's natural wonders. The routes between Oslo and Bergen include scenic train journeys on the famous Flåmsbana railway, with plenty of time to photograph the dramatic landscapes. Several itineraries feature stays at the highly-rated Kviknes Hotel in Balestrand, where our guests love the waterfront location and excellent dining. The tours heading north let you explore at a relaxed pace, with opportunities to visit traditional stave churches and take guided walks through historic districts. What our mature travelers particularly appreciate is how these trips minimize luggage handling - hotels are chosen for their proximity to stations and ports, making transfers easy and convenient.

What people love about Norway Tours for Seniors
- Best of Norway
Had a great time, beautiful country
- Scenic Norway
On the go, but we enjoyed sumptuous buffet breakfasts and dinners, fjord fests, gushing waterfalls, historic stave churches plus courteous, obliging Norwegian people. I recommend this tour.
- Norwegian Fjords
This was a scenic trip. The tour guide Rosie and our driver Macek were wonderful. The low points were the hotel accommodations at times but we were there not for the hotel ambiance but for the beauty of nature. Overall a great tour. Will strongly recommend it to friends and hope to go on another tour with Rosie and Macek again in the future
