Why explore Norway with Aurora Expeditions?

Norway has been calling to adventurous souls for centuries, who yearn to get closer to nature through hiking its breathtaking trails or sightseeing from the water. The best way to experience this bucket-list destination is on one of our immersive Norway cruises. 

Iconic Fjords

Postcard-perfect scenes of jaw-dropping waterfalls plummeting into vibrant blue water in Norwegian fjords carved from glaciers appear as if plucked from a fairy-tale. Inland, rugged mountains smother the terrain, yielding to coastal islands dotted with charming fishing villages.

Tucked away on the fringe of the Arctic Circle, the dramatic landscapes of Norway draw travelers from around the world, who come to marvel at the country’s incredible natural beauty. Its stunning fjords are the subject of gaping jaws, gasps and countless photographs, and are not to be missed.

History & Culture

This wonderful land has a rich history stretching back 10,000 years to when the first settlers were thought to have arrived. In the centuries that came, the Nøstvet-Økser people from the Bronze Age were followed by one of the most intimidating forces in European history; the Vikings. Their influence lasted from circa 800-1030 AD, a period during which the Vikings developed a massive seafaring presence, leading conquests around Europe. 

Norway’s maritime heritage is still very much alive today in its fishing towns. With Aurora Expeditions, you can visit some of the charming colourful fishing towns scattered around Norway.

Wildlife

Norway is home to a range of wonderful wildlife, from the furry Svalbard reindeer, all the way to foxes, wolves and bears. Also found in Norway is the Musk Ox a shaggy haired creature usually seen in Greenland. For birders, Norway also has a few cards up its sleeves such as the adorable puffin, as well as the white-tailed sea eagle, Europe’s largest eagle.

Each Expedition Team on our Norway tours includes Naturalists that are well learnt in everything you’ll see on your Norway experience, including the wildlife you see. They’ll educate you on the various bird species you’ll see while bird-watching along the rugged coastline. The fjords of Norway and Svalbard are also fantastic spots to go whale watching and see other marine life like dolphins and seals.
