Planning a trip to Norway? Here you'll find our 2 day-by-day itineraries (The south-western fjords, The Arctic: Tromso, Senja and the Lofoten), plus the essential practical info to organise your journey.

At a glance

  • Currency — Norway does NOT use the euro: the currency is the Norwegian krone (NOK)
  • Language — The language is Norwegian, but English is spoken excellently by almost everyone, at every age: communicating is never a problem
  • Visa — Norway is not in the EU but is part of the Schengen area
  • e-SIM — The main operators are Telenor, Telia and Ice, with good 4G/5G coverage even in many remote areas (but signal can be lacking in the most enclosed fjords and among the mountains)

When to go to Norway

The climate is milder than you might think on the coast (thanks to the Gulf Stream), but cold and snowy in the mountains and the north. For the southern fjords the best time is May to September (long days, roads and boats open). For the northern lights you need winter (late September to March) in the north; for the midnight sun, the Arctic summer (June-July). Always bring layers and rain gear: the weather changes quickly.

Practical tips

  • Driving, ferries and tunnels — Roads are excellent but the terrain means long journey times: hairpins, tunnels (some very long) and above all ferries to cross the fjords, which are part of the trip
  • Nature, fjords and mountains — Norwegian nature is magnificent but must be respected: on mountain trails and glaciers set off properly equipped (layers, windbreaker, boots, water), check the weather and don't overestimate your abilities
