What to do and see in Møre og Romsdal, Western Norway: The Best Historical & Heritage Tours

June 18, 2021 Myesha Cogley

The most northerly of the Western Fjord counties, More og Romsdal is a land of rich and rugged terrain, including steep mountains, rolling valleys, many islands, some of the country’s longest waterfalls and, of course, the deep fjords that make the area so famous. Geirangerfjord, one of Norway’s most visited fjords, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and home to the spectacular Brudesløret (Bride’s Veil) and De Syv Søstrene (The Seven Sisters) waterfalls. Picturesque Alesund is the county capital.

Amazing day trip! Local Trips was great and as I was the only one signed up I got a private tour! Covid times led the sights and locations to not be over crowded which pretty fantastic. My guide, Trond, was wonderful and we went at my pace. Super worth it, could not be happier with this trip.
