About the World Travel Awards

Since 1993, the awards have been globally regarded as the travel industry's highest honor and is often referred to as "the Oscars of the travel industry." The awards celebrate excellence in tourism worldwide, through votes from travel professionals and real travelers all over the globe.
That’s what makes this award truly meaningful, because it’s based on real experiences, honest feedback, and shared passion for quality and adventure - ensuring that winners truly reflect quality, service, and authentic value.

What does the award recognize?

Customer focused service
Creating seamless travel experiences that put travelers’ needs first, from initial planning to the moment they return home with memories that last a lifetime.
Commitment to sustainability
Operating responsibly to preserve Norway's pristine fjords, mountains, and natural beauty for future generations while making these wonders accessible today.
Authentic experiences
Connecting travelers with the real Norway through thoughtfully designed journeys that showcase this country's diverse landscapes and local culture.
Innovation and quality
Continuously improving our services, from our unique travel planner tool to our partnerships with local, sustainable suppliers throughout Norway.

Travelers’ feedback made this possible

This award wouldn't exist without the travelers who choose us. Customer feedback plays a crucial role in the World Travel Awards voting process, and the reviews, testimonials, and recommendations we've received over the years have been essential in this recognition.
Thousands of travelers have shared their experiences with us—from families discovering the magic of the Flåm Railway together, to adventurers seeking the Arctic lights, to couples celebrating milestones in the beautiful backdrop of UNESCO-listed fjords. Each journey, each review, and each recommendation has helped shape who we are today.
"We don't just create tours; we create connections—between people and nature, between travelers and authentic Norwegian culture, and between unforgettable experiences and responsible travelling."

Our commitment continues

This recognition strengthens our dedication to what matters most for us: making Norway's breathtaking beauty accessible in a way that's sustainable, seamless, and centered around the traveler experience.
As a certified Environmental Lighthouse Company, we work exclusively with public transportation and local partners who share our commitment to preserving Norway's natural wonders. Our flagship tour Norway in a Nutshell® — which has introduced travelers to authentic Nordic experiences for over forty years — still holds one of the lowest carbon footprints of any multi-destination tour in Norway. 
We’re constantly evolving our services by learning from traveler feedback and finding new ways to reduce our environmental impact while making your experience through Norway even more meaningful and exceptional.

Thank you to all our travelers

To every traveler who has trusted us with their Norwegian adventure, every partner who shares our vision of sustainable tourism, and every person who took the time to share their experience—thank you. This award motivates us to continue raising the bar for responsible, authentic travel in Norway.
Here's to many more unforgettable journeys.
