We had the most fantastic trip to Norway! Anna made the planning process so easy and when it came time to travel, everything was seamless with all of our booking information in one place. Anna gave great suggestions and advice for our trip!

Oslo was such a neat city and we loved everything we did there! We visited Stavanger which was such a unique and cozy city. The fjord cruise was absolutely beautiful.

In Bergen, we did a walking tour with a local, John, who was phenomenal. He was informative and continually checked that we were okay to keep going. John asked about our interests and gave us suggestions of places to visit. This walking tour was easily the most memorable part of the trip!

Our train ride to Flåm and our fjord cruise to the Viking Valley were breathtakingly beautiful! We enjoyed the Viking Valley, however due to being the off season, there was a 3 hour gap between the closing time of the valley and the shuttle ride back to Flåm.

We created memories to last a lifetime and I’ve already recommended KimKim to numerous friends and family! Thank you!!

Our adventure to Norway was driven by us wanting to see the northern lights . When we started researching how to do this , we came upon a cruise option that was quite pricey and we weren’t sure in November if that was the best way to travel given the increased nighttime hours and colder temps . We found Kimkim and sent them the cruise itinerary we were entertaining. Our specialist Christina took the cruise itinerary and curated a trip for us based on our desire to see the northern lights and what were the best things to do in Norway in November . And the cost ended up being a couple thousand dollars less per person than the cruise. She ended up going on maternity leave prior to our trip and we were then assigned to work with Katie who was amazing!!!
When our trip finally came … Katie called us a couple weeks before and went over everything we would be doing and how to get around. She also recommended popular highlights in each city and booked us for extra activities and a porter to help with luggage from Oslo to Bergen … which was well worth the money!
This trip was literally planes , trains and automobiles lol. We were on the move every 1-2 nights
She basically created the road map for our trip and we followed it . She was always available on the app to answer questions and kimkim has an emergency number also to help while on the trip . This trip was absolutely epic !!! The hotels were amazing. The local tour guides were amesome . We saw the lights not once but twice. King crab fishing, sea eagle expedition, fjord cruises, historic cities … you name it …we did it !!
Our trip however, was not without complications. We did have some weather that forced us to reroute one part of the itinerary. Katie was there immediately to help us with that. She was on the phone with us, guiding us as to how we can reroute and what our options were. She was absolutely awesome.
We also got a flight cancellation leaving Kirkenes because of a snowstorm. She was on the phone with us, helping us find the best options.
Even though we had the roadmap of the trip to do it on our own, she was always there with us to help us guide us along the way.
I can’t say enough amazing things about the Kim Kim team.
Thank you Katie for helping us have an unbelievable trip!!! We will never forget it !!!
Highly recommend kimkim for future vacations!!!!

Kadri and Fenne helped plan and booked all of the excursions for a trip to Norway. Both of them were the best to work with. I had never been to Norway and they were able to book experiences and activities so that we could see the country and have experiences that I would have never known how to schedule. Both Kadri and Fenne responded to all of my questions before the trip and gave detailed information to questions that I had. We were able to take boat rides through the Fjords, take trains and busses through the country, experience dog sledding, and feeding reindeer. I would highly recommend working with both of them if you are looking to book a trip to Norway.

Sorry for responding late but we had a wonderful time in Norway! The Kim Kim team was very thorough and helpful throughout our trip. The only minor glitch we had was at Tromso airport where we were not met by anyone upon arrival. But within few minutes of speaking with your office, our ride arrived. We really appreciate the ability to connect on WhatsApp and the prompt responses every time! We found everyone at Kim Kim extremely friendly, polite and helpful to deal with. The hotels were fantastic and our guide in Oslo was prompt, informative and friendly. Unfortunately our guided tour in Bergen got cancelled due to bad weather and we were unable to do both the funicular in Bergen and the cable ride in Tromso, but overall it was an extremely well planned itinarary & great service. Thank you all for making our trip so fun, & convenient! We will definitely reach out to Kim Kim for any trips in the future.

Wow! Wow! Wow! What can I say? We were disappointed to see overcast skies upon landing in Tromso, but they drove us across to Finland in search of clear skies to view this amazing phenomenon! It is a spectacular display by Mother Nature! The best part was enjoying a warm meal around the campfire in the freezing arctic temperatures with the Northern Lights dancing all around us! What an amazing experience!

Alex helped me organize my trip to Norway, which was amazing! He (and Carina) absolutely nailed it!

November isn't necessarily the most popular time to travel through Norway, but Alex prepared me with what to expect with the weather and limited availability for activities. With his knowledge of the areas, he led me in the perfect direction for what I should and shouldn't do, and where I should and shouldn't stay. I wouldn't hesitate to go back in November again - it wasn't too cold and was nice and quiet : ).

I explored Bergen, Aurland, Ålesund, and Svlovær! My local guides were incredible (Eric and Leif!) and were very flexible with our plans. We ended up getting to explore more than I expected - Leif showed me the hidden gems of Aurland, Gudvangen, and Flam and Eric showed me all around the Lofoten Islands, he even took me to his own village to see how they live.

My accommodations, transportation (private and shared transfers as well as flights), and activities were all organized seamlessly. I wasn't able to do the Northern Lights tour, but all of the local guides in the area had to cancel due to the weather. They offered me the next day, but the weather was quite heavy that night too; this is something that Alex prepared me for - it's dependant on the weather. I was able to enjoy my floating sauna a bit longer since I then didn't have to head out for the tour. I'll definitely be back to Norway!

Clarion Hotel Bergen

Bergen

This hotel was perfect for what I was looking for! It even had a sauna and fitness center, which was a nice surprise. It is located on the historic Bryggen, which is a UNESCO site in Bergen! It was so nice being able to step out of my quiet hotel and be right near shops, cafes, and the fish market.

Wangen Apartments by Fjord Resort

Aurland

I loved this aparthotel! It is right on the fjord, with not a single thing in your view. Most Aurland businesses are closed in November, which Alex had told me, but it is so close to Flåm that I loved the idea of being a bit outside of the crowds. This aparthotel has a full kitchen and a grocery store next door, so I was able to make my own meals which was a really nice change of pace during traveling!

Clarion Hotel Admiral

Bergen

This hotel has an incredible breakfast and view of Bryggen! I suggest waking up early, while still dark, and seeing Bryggen. It was all lit up and the water was still, creating an amazing mirrored image! My specific room left a bit to be desired, but it was due to my choice of a standard room. I was still quite happy with the amenities and location though! With the location and amenities, it's a great choice - I'd just suggest upgrading to a top-tier room that will be more updated and with a balcony.

Authenticity & Character

My room was fairly outdated compared to other rooms I saw when walking past. It sounds like the updated rooms with balconies facing Byrggen are the deluxe and above rooms.

Quality Hotel Ålesund

Ålesund

This hotel is right on the water and on the edge of the main street with shops, cafes, and restaurants in Ålesund! When I checked in, since I was early, I asked if I'd get a better room in the same tier if I were to wait to check in - they said yes. They suggested I waited a few hours and I could probably get a room with a view to the water. This is exactly what I did and exactly what I got. I just dropped my luggage in their luggage room and explored for a bit, then got back and enjoyed my room. This hotel has a great breakfast and a restaurant for dinner. They also have a small menu that they offer 24/7 with paninis, pizzas, and such. This was so nice for me, getting in and just wanting something quick.

Svinøya Rorbuer

Svolvær

This place is a must if you can! It is so quaint, with amazing views, and incredible dinners! It has a kitchen which was nice, given that my daylight was short. I was able to go to the store and grab some things and enjoy my cozy place after my activities. The only con of this place is that it is across the bridge, so if it's raining, you just have to walk about 10-15m to get to the shops, but the hotel had a large umbrella in my room, so this wasn't a problem for me. The floating sauna in Svlovær is also part of this property, so I loved having just a quick 2-minute walk from my room to the sauna (the views from this sauna are unreal.. highly suggest!)

This feels like exactly what I would expect in the Lofoten Islands! It has that mountain and fishing village charm!

This is right out of the airport (about a 5-10m walk) and was exactly what I wanted since I was only staying one night in Oslo to catch my flight the next day back to the US. This is a bigger hotel, but was very clean, quiet, and had an incredible breakfast, which opens early. I'm an early riser, so I really appreciated being able to get some nice coffee early!

Food & Culture Walk

Bergen

Very cool experience! Marianne, my guide, was born in Bergen and knew so many ins and outs! The pace of this tour was perfect, we saw (and tasted) quite a bit, but it didn't feel rushed. We went all through Bryggen, the fish market, and even to the first coffee shop in Bergen (the owner is still working the cafe and making the baked goods and coffee). There were many things that I would've just walked right past if it weren't for this tour. Great experience!

Walk up to Aksla Viewpoint

Ålesund

This is a must if in Alesund! It's a short walk right in town (lots of steps, but plenty of spots to take a break). I suggest doing it during the daylight and again in the evening if you can - it's cool to see the lights at night!

Winter Kayaking & Floating Sauna

Ålesund

I thought I was going to be chillllllly on this (winter kayaking?!), but in fact, I was quite warm - who knew?! It was the perfect amount of effort (moderate, and the guide was flexible with going slower or faster, depending on what you wanted) and we had suits on that kept us dry and cozy. We did a loop around the island and then ended at the floating sauna (where you can jump into the water too!). This was a fun experience!

Private Lofoten Sightseeing Trip

Svolvær

Eric, my guide, feels like my new best friend! I specifically chose a private experience to get a flexible/personalized experience. Right when I met my guide, he asked if there was anything specifically that I wanted to see/visit. I didn't know much of the area and trusted his judgment. We drove all around, stopping at hidden gems as well as some popular sites (Henningsvær soccer field, Haukland Beach...). This was a really cool time to visit these spots since they can get busy in peak season - I feel like I got the private showing of the hot spots. Eric also drove me through his village (11 houses, 13 residents) and showed how the locals live. Very cool and authentic experience with a knowledgeable guide! This is a must-do if in the Lofoten Islands and just wanting to make the most of your time there!

Lofoten Floating Sauna Experience

Svolvær

This floating sauna is unreal - the views are amazing! Highly suggest trying to do the sauna during daylight (to appreciate the views even more) and jumping off of the roof into the water!

Quality of Experience

I did the sauna in the evening, after sunset, so it was dark. Although still a great experience, I would've liked to do in the daylight to appreciate the views, my schedule just didn't allow for it.
