Norway
Norway is the country where the landscape wins. The fjords (Geirangerfjord, Naeroyfjord) do what photos promise, Lofoten in the Arctic circle delivers the midnight sun, and the drive between Bergen and Aalesund is a week's trip in itself.

Traveling Norway, the honest version
Best for
Landscape photographers, cruisers, and travelers who don't flinch at a $12 beer.
Heads up
Expensive is an understatement. A 2-week trip costs what 3 weeks in Spain does.
Standout
A Hurtigruten coastal voyage from Bergen to Kirkenes. 7 days up the coast stopping at every working fishing village. Northern lights likely October to March.
MONEY ON THE GROUND
Card or Vipps (Norwegian mobile payment) universal. Cash is effectively gone.
