  Expensive. A small country with a limited city life and shopping opportunities and frequent racist remarks against non-Caucasians. 


In a nutshell

  A great place to spend an active, sporty holiday!

The Place

The northernmost country in Europe, Norway vacations have much to compete with, given the magnificence of its neighbors. But the northern chill and dramatic landscape is an opportunity to engage in Arctic activities like spotting walruses, whales, and polar bears, meandering the fjords and cross country or alpine skiing. More temperately, stroll the streets of Bergen, see the Northern Lights, tour Borgund, Heddal, and Urnes, or settle inside the Oslo Opera House for a night of song and dance. A trip to Norway might not be tropical, but is splendid in its own right.
