Stay : Farniente in Norway

What if you went to the Norwegian Riviera? Very popular with Norwegian tourists in the summer, this region is not often recommended for a trip to Norway, wrongly. For a one week stay, it is ideal to discover the Norwegian coastline. Explore the coast and the lighthouses, the charm of the provincial towns, the fish markets... and the beaches
