Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Norway takes roughly 26 hours with a stopover. You might be a bit tired off the other end but that won't matter when you see those incredible fjords.
Norway is the ultimate playground for nature lovers, where majestic fjords slice through wild landscapes and the midnight sun keeps the adventure going long after dark.
Cruise through breathtaking waterways, hike to jaw-dropping spots like Trolltunga, or chase the northern lights across an Arctic sky. The landscapes are nothing short of spectacular – but Norway isn’t all about the great outdoors.
In Oslo and Bergen, you’ll uncover Viking heritage, colourful harbours, and a buzzing scene of modern art, culture and Nordic cuisine. Whether you’re dog-sledding through snowy tundra, soaking in a fjord-side sauna, or getting lost for hours in a fascinating museum – Norway is pure magic.

With a couple of years of
experience in the travel industry, I am passionate about all things travel —
culture, adventure, food and leisure. Most importantly, I love turning your
travel dreams into reality.
Travel has been a part of my life since I was three years old, those early
experiences sparked a love for travel that has only grown over time. In 2021, I
achieved a Level 4 Certificate in Tourism, Airline and Flight Attending which
opened the door that brought me into the world of travel.
I’m excited to discover new destinations and help others do the same
Always with a smile I will be just as excited and passionate about your future adventures as you are! Originally from the UK I've spent the last 10 years travelling around the globe before finally settling in heavenly New Zealand.
Here I've turned the joy of travel into a profession I love. I enjoy nature, the beach, spending time with loved ones and exploring new places especially on the open road or by cruise.
I believe the biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams!
To me, traveling is so much more than a simple trip or relaxing vacation; it is a journey that always leaves me transformed and forever changed by the experiences presented. I have had the pleasure of visiting too many countries to count from backpacking on a shoestring budget around Asia to going all out on a private luxury adventure filled holidays such as trekking Machu Pichu!
My firsthand recommendations will ensure that your destination choices, no matter how uncommon, are always extraordinary. No matter what you are looking for, whether it’s a bucket list adventure or something that completely takes you off the grid, you can count on me to open doors to the most exceptional experiences and enhance every travel adventure.

The flight from Auckland to Norway takes roughly 26 hours with a stopover. You might be a bit tired off the other end but that won't matter when you see those incredible fjords.
Norway is stunning year-round, but summer offers long days and mild weather. Winter dazzles with the northern lights, while spring and autumn reveal a quieter, more authentic Norway.
Norway is 10–12 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving in both countries. It might take you a couple of days to know which way is up.
