Norway Travel Agents

Anna did a fantastic job of finding us hotels and experiences along the way that fit our car tour of Norway. We followed the schedule that we agreed on with Anna and it worked out perfectly. We saw those things that were high on our list and also had the confidence that each day we would end up at a good hotel and know what we were doing the next day. Made all those "when do we leave in the morning?" conversations so easy: just look it up on Anna's schedule. Plus, all the addresses were... read more

So easy!

Hotel Victoria

Stavanger

Our favorite hotel in Stavanger. Located right dockside where you can see all of the activity and beautiful overview of the approaches to the harbor. Watch all the ships come and go! And right downtown next to great walks and restaurants. Also a LOVELY breakfast in the morning was included. Just a really great place to stay!

Bergen

John was a wonderful guide; so glad Anna found him for us. We walked the hills of Bergen and he gave us a great perspective on the history and evolution of Bergen over time. His love for the town was so apparent in our discussions.

I highly recommend KimKim if you are planning a trip to Norway! I typically do a lot of research on my own and plan my own travel. However, pressed for planning time and wanting to really maximize our 7 days in Norway, I came across KimKim and decided to give it a try. I am so happy I did! It was so easy to correspond electronically, our dedicated specialist quickly put together an itinerary based on our profile and interests and then modified it slightly after our review based on our input.... read more

It was so easy to correspond electronically, our dedicated specialist quickly put together an itinerary based on our profile and interests and then modified it slightly after our review based on our input. Ethel coordinated our transportation (trains, boats, and car service!), accommodations (and it was not a problem that we had already booked our Oslo hotel) and many excursions (tours, fishing, museums etc). I was also provided the 24 hour contact person of someone in Norway for emergencies/last minute questions. Norway was amazing and KimKim was a delight to work with and well worth the small fee.

Kviknes Hotel

Balestrand

Amazing location, loads of history, comfortable and very clean rooms, a bit dated but lovely stay overall and appeared to be the best place to stay in the area.

Boat trip was a lot of fun, gorgeous views of the fjords and villages, friendly and knowledgeable tour guides. The glacier museum is a must see! And getting up close to the glacier was a very cool experience.

Mar was simply amazing. She created an itinerary which was exactly what we were looking for. She was attentive to our requirements and how we wanted to travel. We loved the small towns that she included in our itinerary: Voss, Flåm, Undredal and Rosendal. Fenne took over from Mar after the itinerary was created and helped us with the reservations. And we are so happy and impressed with Fenne who rescheduled our boat ride at no extra cost for us. This was our first trip with Kimkim. But we... read more

Absolutely loved them. They made our trip super memorable.

Our trip to Norway was absolutely amazing. All of the arrangements Mathia made for us were exactly what we were hoping. The hotels were great (Bergen Bors - Wonderful), the fishing cabins were great, all of the people were dealt with were friendly and helpful. My favorite place was Reine and second was Aurland. The Fjord cruise through the Nærøyfjord was absolutely spectacular and kyaking in Reine was one of the highpoints. I would skip Svolvaer next time, but probably because the... read more

The Fjord cruise through the Nærøyfjord was absolutely spectacular and kyaking in Reine was one of the highpoints. I would skip Svolvaer next time, but probably because the weather was so miserable, but the Svinoya Rorbuer was great, the food was outstanding, the sauna was fun. All of Mathia's recommendations were so helpful. The Flam Railway was amazing as well. We even saw the King & Queen drive past when we were at the Fortress in Bergen. But, enough about all that, I would like to praise Mathia for a moment. Mathia was OUTSTANDING. He was responsive very quickly when we had inquiries, he made alternate arrangements when some of our excursions were cancelled, he checked in to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and to see if we needed anything. When I return to Norway, I will definitely be utilizing Mathia again; he truly was just the best.

What can I say! Our trip of a lifetime was indeed that! Tricia was amazing and extremely patient with us while planning our trip and even throwing her a last minute curveball with accommodations. We wanted a true Norway experience and I feel like that’s what we got! From Tromso to Senja, Bergen, Fjaerland, Flam, Aurland and Oslo, I feel like we were able to truly absorb so much of the Norwegian lifestyle.

What can I say! Our trip of a lifetime was indeed that! Tricia was amazing and extremely patient with us while planning our trip and even throwing her a last minute curveball with accommodations. We wanted a true Norway experience and I feel like that’s what we got! From Tromso to Senja, Bergen, Fjaerland, Flam, Aurland and Oslo, I feel like we were able to truly absorb so much of the Norwegian lifestyle. She recommended some absolutely stunning hikes, ridiculously good food and even more importantly the people we met along the way. Robert, our guide in Senja, was one of our favorites! He was so kind and in tune with everything even on a hike in 17° weather! We saw reindeer on the hike! The Arctic Safari was awesome as well! We saw a humpback whale and sea eagles. The views of the fjords were incredible! John, our guide in Bergen, was also a wealth of knowledge and took us on a 7 mile walk of the city. We took trains, planes, ferries, rented a car and the majority of the trip was nearly perfect! We had some minor issues, as all do, but nothing that we couldn’t resolve on our own.

I was a bit skeptical of using a travel agency I had never heard of before, but have already recommended Kimkim/Ethical travel and Tricia to several friends.

Thank you Tricia for making my 60th birthday one to remember forever!
