Norway, 10 Days · Tailor-made by car
Do not be surprised if during this wonderful Route through Norway’s dream landscapes you will have to pinch yourself to check whether you are awake or not. This car trip that we offer allows you to discover first-hand the breathtaking and spectacular beauty of this Scandinavian country that will steal your heart, both in summer and winter. See the amazing iridescent beauty of the Northern Lights, it being possible to see them between mid-August and until the beginning of April. Witness the phenomenon known as "Midnight Sun" or "White Nights", just over a month of days without nights between the beginning of June and the beginning of July; a phenomenon that occurs in the North area of the Arctic Circle in the Norway region. Discover the Lofoten Islands along "Olaf's Highway" ("Carretera de Olaf"), with its charming, bucolic fishing villages, fish drying rooms, its unmistakable red wooden houses, and views that will stay in your mind forever. Photograph several species of giant whales, the sperm whales being the most common to spot in the small Vesterålen archipelago; or greet the world's largest troll: the "Senja Trollet", located on the island of the same name that looks like something out of a fairy tale, where peace and silence reigns in every corner. Travel to North Cape, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Arctic Ocean, and let yourself be captivated by the unparalleled natural beauty of what is considered the northernmost point of Europe. Embark on the mythical Hurtigruten ship for an incredible voyage through the Norwegian Sea nicknamed "the most beautiful sea trip in the world"; a hundred-year-old route dotted with snow-capped peaks, fjords and beautiful islands. Visit cities such as Bodø, Svolvær, Alta, Tromsø and Narvik to soak up the culture and customs of Norway and its inhabitants, as well as to taste the delicious traditional cuisine of a country that looks like something out of a beautiful dream.

- Driving in Norway: 1.Cars drive on the right-hand side and trams must be overtaken on the right. 2.Motorists must use low-beam headlights both day and night. 3.The allowed blood alcohol level is the strictest in Europe - just 0.2 mg/ml. Fines are very high and must be paid on the spot. 4.The speed limits are as follows: in built-up areas 50 km/h; on country roads 80 km/h; and on motorways 110 km/h. 5.Petrol stations are normally open from 6.00 am to 7.00 pm. 6.Parking is not allowed on main streets. This is why there are many municipal parking areas. Parking zones have different colours. You can park for one hour in yellow zones; two hours in grey zones; and three hours in brown zones. 7.Norway has a people-oriented road culture, where pedestrians and cyclists have priority.Pedestrians expect you to slow down or stop when they're crossing the road and cyclists don't always follow traffic rules. Please keep the most unprotected travellers in mind when driving on Norwegian roads. 8.Roads are mostly toll roads. You can pay for tolls either manually or with the AutoPASS, whereby automatic payment is taken once you've registered your car and your credit card on the website https://www.autopass.no/en/visitors-payment. We strongly recommend the AutoPASS. A fixed amount is withheld that will be discounted as you go through a toll and press the AutoPASS button (any surplus will be returned to you eighty-five days later). You can activate it up to three days after having passed through your first toll booth. If you opt for manual payment, you can pay for the tolls you've already passed through at petrol stations. You'll know at which petrol stations you can pay when you see a sign that says 'Kr-service' (usually Esso petrol stations).
- Triple rooms in Europe are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.
- The proposed excursions and tours for each day are purely suggestions, as you can tailor the trip to suit your times, tastes and needs.
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Hotels usually have cots available. Otherwise, babies will have to share a bed with an adult.
- To pick up your rental car, you'll need a credit (not debit) card in the name of the person who made the booking, who must also be the named driver of the vehicle.
- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
- We recommend you purchase the necessary ferry tickets in advance when purchasing your self-drive tour, since ferry tickets are not included in the trip, your journey will have dates and duration that will vary and will also depend on the time of year, your vehicle and your ship or ferry preferences. To ease the planning of your trip, please consult schedules and rates on the shipping companies' websites before choosing your trip start date. Visit the website of Torghatten Nord AS for the Bodø-Moskenes and Skardberget-Bognes routes (http://www.thn.no/english/default.aspx); the website of Bjørklid Ferjerederi for the Olderdalen-Lyngseidet and Svensby-Breivikeidet routes (http://www.bjorklid.no); and the website of Hurtigruten ship for the Hammerfest-Tromsø cruise (https://www.hurtigruten.com/practical-information/sailing-plan/).
- We recommend that you check the tide table to fully enjoy the water whirlpools experience of Saltstraumen, in Bodø, (https://www. kartverket. no/en/sehavniva/Lokasjonsside/?cityid=268231&city=Saltstraumen) before arriving in the city, since this phenomenon only occurs approximately every six hours.
