Hey everyone! I’m planning a trip to Norway for my partner’s birthday and would love some input on our route and logistics.
Here is what we currently have in mind:
Destinations: Tromsø, Bergen, and possibly Oslo (we're on the fence about Oslo—we aren't huge city people, but we aren't totally opposed to it if it's worth a stop).
Vibe we want: Cute little towns, Viking history, and stunning, postcard-worthy views.
Activity level: We aren't as active as we should be, so no extreme mountaineering. However, we can comfortably handle long walks and steep hills, and we'd likely book guided tours if we need transportation to trailheads or specific sights.
I have a few specific questions for those who know the area:
1. Should we include Oslo? Given that we are leaning more toward nature, small towns, and history rather than big city experiences, is Oslo worth a couple of days, or should we skip it to spend more time exploring the fjords and smaller towns around Bergen/Tromsø?
2. Car rental vs. public transit: Should we rent a car to get around Bergen and nearby towns/scenic areas, or is public transportation/tour-based travel sufficient?
3. Any hidden gems or tour recommendations that fit our vibe (cozy towns, Viking history, moderate walks) would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks in advance for any help!
