The Scandinavian country of Norway encompasses all the drama and intrigue of the Vikings, who once roamed its shores and waters. A country characterized by its sheer and rugged mountains, glacial valleys, and especially the jagged and twisting fjords, Norway is a truly breathtaking destination where visitors can traverse steep switchbacks to reach the Trollstigen, take a fjord cruise to view the rocky peaks that rise from the water, and even go diving or fishing in the world's strongest tidal current. At night, the aurora borealis or the midnight sun will tantalize and impress anyone who sees these natural phenomena in the night sky.
