Current Travel Situation
Brazil to Norway: What You Need to Know
Norway is a Schengen member via a special agreement (it is not an EU member, similar to Switzerland and Iceland). Norwegian days count against the shared Schengen 90-day allowance. Norway's Norwegian Air Shuttle and SAS offer connections from Brazil via London, Amsterdam, and other major European hubs. The fjord landscape (Sognefjord, Hardangerfjord, Geirangerfjord) draws Brazilians seeking dramatic natural scenery unlike anything in South America.
Practical Tips
Tromsø (above the Arctic Circle) is the prime Northern Lights base from October to March. The Bergen Railway from Oslo to Bergen is considered one of the world's great train journeys (7 hours, spectacular mountain scenery). The Flåm Railway branch is a short but stunning addition. Geirangerfjord and Nærøyfjord (both UNESCO) are best accessed by cruise or rented car/bus from Ålesund or Flåm. The Lofoten Islands require domestic flights or a long drive from Bodø. Oslo's Viking Ship Museum and Munch Museum are world-class.
