Faqs about trips to Norway
What unique cultural experiences can I expect in Norway?
The Norwegian people have a deep respect for Nature and their heritage. This heritage is evident in the colorful wooden buildings of Bryggen in Bergen, as well as in the centuries-old tradition of Sami reindeer herding in the Arctic north of Norway. In Norway, you can attend folk music festivals, learn about Viking culture in Oslo’s museums, or visit historic churches that date back to the Middle Ages.
Join locals in the practice of friluftsliv—the love of open-air living—by hiking in the fjords or skiing in the mountains. Enjoy seasonal celebrations like Midsummer’s Eve, when Norwegians gather around bonfires to mark the longest day of the year.
What should I pack for a trip to Norway?
Pack clothes that you can layer. The weather can change quickly in Norway. Temperatures are often cool in the evenings, even in the summer months. You’ll need waterproof clothing if you plan to explore the countryside, and don’t forget to pack comfortable walking shoes, whether you plan on taking city tours or hiking through Nature.
What are some must-see destinations in Norway?
There is so much to see in Norway, from boating through the iconic Norwegian fjords to strolling through Bergen’s historic charm. Further north, the picturesque fishing villages, rugged mountains, and opportunities to see the Northern Lights draw thousands of tourists each year.
Norway's capital, Oslo, boasts world-class museums, like the Viking Ship Museum and the Munch Museum, alongside modern architecture and a thriving cultural scene. Consider venturing to Tromsø, often called the "Gateway to the Arctic," where you can enjoy whale-watching and dog sledding adventures and witness the spectacular aurora borealis.
Do travelers need a visa to enter Norway?
Norway is part of the Schengen Area, so a Schengen visa is typically required for short stays. However, US citizens do not need a visa for short visits of less than 90 days. Eventually, you’ll need an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) authorization before entering Norway or any other Schengen country but this won’t be going into effect until the 4th quarter of 2026. This is not a visa but rather a pre-travel screening linked to your passport.
What currency is used in Norway, and should I exchange money before arriving?
The currency used in Norway is the Norwegian Krone. It is not necessary to exchange any significant amount of money before leaving for Norway. Norway is one of the world’s most cashless societies, so electronic payments are the norm. Visa and Master cards are widely accepted. You can also use contactless payments like Google Pay. ATMs are also widely available.
Are there any vaccination requirements for entering Norway?
There are no vaccination requirements for travelers entering Norway unless they arrive from a Yellow Fever area. You should, however, ensure that all your routine vaccinations are up to date.
