Norway Tours for Solo Travelers
Our solo travelers particularly enjoy the flexible Norwegian itineraries that blend guided moments with personal exploration time. The tours running between Oslo and Bergen let you experience the magnificent Sognefjord at your own pace, with well-organized connections between trains, boats and hotels - our customers mention how smoothly these transitions work. Another popular choice takes you deep into the Arctic, where you'll discover Trondheim's waterfront before riding the renowned Atlantic Road's ocean-spanning bridges. Several routes include overnight stays in Balestrand, which our solo guests praise for its perfect mix of organized activities and free time to wander. The tours running north to Tromsø give you chances to spot sea eagles, explore fishing villages and maybe catch the Northern Lights, all while enjoying the security of traveling with a knowledgeable guide and like-minded travelers.

What people love about touring Norway solo
- Vision of the Fjords by Train
An excellent, well paced tour. Stefano was a very knowledgeable, helpful tour guide.
- Norwegian Fjords, Charm and Traditions
This was a spectacular tour with having an experienced bus driver Raonld ( knew every hairpin curve ) to the tour guide Alexander who looked out for everyone’s wellbeing and interests , knew which stops would capture the best pictures . The viewing of the fjords had the best activities with the sailings of Sognefjord and the Geiranger . We loved the troll car ride and the train rides up to see the glaciers and waterfalls . It was a well planned out tour .
- Magical Fjord Adventure
Organisation was exceptional. Everything ran smoothly. We were a little dissapointed in both the Clarion Hotels, although they looked fancy, the rooms were small and cluttered. The night meal in the dining room at the Clarion Hub was disgusting and overpriced, one meal sent back as it was cold, when it was returned it was inedible. we paid for premium accomodation. these two hotels would not be 3 star in Australia, maybe Europe has different standards. The other hotels were acceptable.
