Norway Beyond the Nutshell

Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on October 6, 2025.

Norway is stacked with superlatives — it's the most mountainous, most scenic, and most prosperous of the Scandinavian countries. But between Norway's famous fjords and sleek cities hide charming port towns and dramatic valleys that don't fit neatly into most travelers' nutshell visits. Tour guide Pål Johansen joins us to crack open that nutshell and share lesser-known Norwegian gems from seaside Ålesund and the Norwegian Riviera to the Gudbrandsdalen Valley, wreathed with national parks. Slice up some brown cheese to nibble as we tuck into Norway's natural nooks and cultural crannies.
