What people love about Western Norway Tours
- 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.
- Highlights of Norway (Bergen to Oslo) (2025)
The tour manager Eira made the whole trip spectacular! She was amazing and so easy to get along with.
- Magical Fjord Adventure
Overall - a very good tour covering some lovely places. My one comment would be to for VOS to provide some additional information in their materials on things like what sights are covered in their included cities tours - so as to be able to better plan free time (e.g. in Oslo). Otherwise it was very well organized.
What our customers ask about Western Norway Tours & Trips
When is the best time to visit Western Norway for a general sightseeing tour?
Western Norway welcomes visitors year-round with distinct seasonal experiences. 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. The Bergen Fish Market offers local seafood specialties. As one TourRadar traveler noted "The fjords are indeed magical! I recommend the tour with all my heart!"
What types of accommodation can I expect on Western Norway general tours?
Western Norway's accommodations blend historic charm with modern comfort. Properties range from waterfront hotels to mountain lodges. The historic Kviknes Hotel in Balestrand offers views across Sognefjord while the Clarion Admiral Hotel puts guests in Bergen's harbor district. The Fretheim Hotel in Flåm connects visitors to mountain landscapes. Each property typically includes Norwegian breakfast service. A TourRadar traveler confirms "All lodging and transportation was just as described. The hotels were in THE BEST locations!"
How many days should I plan for a general tour of Western Norway?
A thorough exploration of Western Norway requires 7-9 days. Popular itineraries like the "Vision of the Fjords" cover key sites in 7 days from Oslo to Bergen. The more extensive "Norway: Fjords and Glaciers" tour allows 9 days for deeper discovery. Active days typically start early as noted by a TourRadar traveler: "The 9-day itinerary was well planned with travel days and completely filling our hiking days usually starting at 7:45 AM and returning around 5 PM each day."
What's the best way to photograph Western Norway's dramatic landscapes?
Key photo locations include viewpoints along the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord especially the Geiranger Skywalk Platform at 1500m. Bergen's Bryggen wharf offers rich colors at sunset while the Flåm Railway presents countless photo opportunities. Pack a wide-angle lens for landscapes and weather-sealed gear for Norway's frequent rain. One TourRadar traveler suggests: "We got our best shots from the Geirangerfjord cruise seeing the Seven Sisters waterfall and from Mount Fløyen overlooking Bergen."
What's special about the food experiences on Western Norway tours?
Western Norway's cuisine focuses on local ingredients from sea and land. Bergen's Fish Market serves fresh salmon shrimp and regional specialties. The Hardangerfjord area produces fruit and traditional cider. Hotels like the Kviknes in Balestrand prepare extensive breakfast spreads with Norwegian dishes.
