Introduction

One of the most rapidly growing urban metropolises in Scandinavia, the compact and cultured Oslo is a hive of activity. A beautifully green city surrounded by mountains and sea, Oslo attracts a range of explorers, from nature lovers to city enthusiasts. On this suggested itinerary, allow us to bring you on an adventure that combines the best of both worlds. Soak up the sights and sounds of the urban jungle, embarking on city tours and exploring the Nordic culinary scene, before escaping to the untamed wilds of Lofoten. Here, you’ll have the chance to get up close to nature in an archipelagic world of sheltered bays, deep fjords and harbour villages, the ideal end to an exploration of Norway.

What people are saying

OROKO created the honeymoon of our dreams in South Africa. The consultation process was very laid-back and conversational. The whole process overall was really quite quick and smooth. There was no trawling through the internet for hours late at night, weighing up costs and reviews of hotels and transfer companies etc – it was all done for us based on the OROKO travel experts’ experiences – which we found to be absolutely spot on. Choosing a ‘luxury travel’ company was a little daunting: We wanted a special honeymoon without spending silly money – and OROKO worked very well with this brief. Believe me when I say our accommodation could not have been more perfect for us. It really was the holiday of our dreams.
