Begin your honeymoon in Oslo, Norway's capital city filled with Scandinavian architecture and rich cultural heritage. Visit the Viking Ship Museum to learn about the country's seafaring history and explore the Akershus Fortress, a medieval castle with stunning views of Oslofjord. Spend the evening at Mathallen Oslo, a food hall featuring local cuisine and live music.
Take a scenic train ride, recognized as one of the most beautiful in the world, from Oslo to Bergen. Stroll through the historic streets of UNESCO-listed Bryggen, a restored wharf that dates back to the Hansa period. Visit the popular fish market and ascend Mount Fløyen via funicular railway to take in the panoramic view of the city.
Travel to the Arctic Circle to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights in Tromsø. Visit the Arctic Cathedral, a striking triangular building with breathtaking architecture. Take a cable car up to Mount Storsteinen and enjoy a hot beverage under the northern lights. End the day at Fiskekompaniet, a seafood restaurant with locally sourced ingredients and stunning waterfront views.
Experience dog sledding and reindeer sledding in the beautiful Arctic landscape. Head to the Tromsø Wilderness Center to interact with the Huskies and learn about the Sami culture. In the evening, take a Northern Lights safari to hunt for the elusive phenomenon.
Take a flight to Svalbard, the northernmost part of Norway near the North Pole. Go on a snowmobile tour through the Svalbard wilderness to marvel at majestic glaciers and fjords. In the evening, head to the Global Seed Vault, an underground seed repository that safeguards the world's plant species.
Spend the day exploring the Arctic Archipelago and see polar bears and other wildlife. Sail to the ice-covered islands and drink champagne on the pack ice, take a dip in the Arctic Ocean, and marvel at the stunning Northern Lights over the mountains.
Return to Oslo on the last day of your honeymoon. Head to the Holmenkollen ski jump, offering panoramic views of Oslo, and enjoy a traditional Norwegian dinner at Lorry Restaurant. End the day by watching the magical sunset over Oslofjord.
Consider flying between the different locations to save time and cover greater distances quickly. Norway’s train system is very efficient, clean and reliable. Make sure to dress warmly if you are traveling to the Arctic Circle as temperatures can drop dramatically.
If you have extra time, add a visit to the Geirangerfjord, one of the most beautiful fjords in the world or explore the Lyngen Alps for skiing and snowshoeing. However, keep in mind that traveling in Norway carries a relatively high cost. If you have less time, skip Svalbard and spend more time exploring Oslo or Bergen.
