About
Norway is one of Europe’s most breathtaking destinations, famous for its dramatic fjords, snow-capped mountains, Northern Lights, scenic rail journeys, and charming Nordic cities. For Indian travellers, travel to Norway is smooth and safe, with excellent public transport, English widely spoken, and world-class tourist infrastructure. Whether it’s chasing the Aurora Borealis, cruising through UNESCO-listed fjords, enjoying midnight sun experiences, or exploring Viking culture and modern Scandinavian cuisine, Norway offers unforgettable experiences across all seasons. With increasing interest among Indian travellers in Norway for nature-based holidays, road trips, and winter adventures, it is fast becoming one of the best places to visit in Norway for families, couples, and explorers alike.
Norway is located in Northern Europe, stretching along the western edge of the Scandinavian Peninsula and bordered by Sweden, Finland, and Russia. The country is known for its long coastline, deep fjords, mountain ranges, islands, glaciers, and Arctic tundra in the north. Norway experiences four distinct seasons, with cold snowy winters and mild summers, and natural phenomena like the Midnight Sun in summer and Northern Lights in winter—important factors for Indian travellers planning seasonal trips.
The official currency of Norway is the Norwegian Krone (NOK). Indian travellers are advised to carry international debit or credit cards, as Norway is largely cashless, and cards are accepted almost everywhere, including public transport and small cafés. ATMs are easily available in cities, but carrying minimal cash is sufficient. Food costs are relatively high, with meals averaging NOK 150–300, making advance planning and passes essential for budget management.
Indian travellers can reach Norway via one-stop flights from major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru through hubs such as Doha, Dubai, Frankfurt, or Amsterdam. Oslo Gardermoen Airport is the main international gateway, with Bergen and Stavanger also handling international flights. Indian passport holders require a Schengen visa, and the average travel time is 12–15 hours depending on connections. Early visa application and pre-booking internal travel is highly recommended.
The best time to visit Norway depends on travel interests. Summer (June to August) is ideal for fjord cruises, road trips, and Midnight Sun experiences, while winter (November to March) is perfect for Northern Lights, snow activities, and Arctic adventures. Shoulder months like May and September offer fewer crowds and better prices, making them attractive for budget-conscious Indian travellers
