If these pictures were enough to convince you to take a trip to Norway, Lisa's number one tip for first-time visitors is to start looking at the map when they're still making plans and not after arriving.
"Norway is a massive country, and visitors often underestimate its size when they start planning. The result is that they are majorly disappointed when they learn that it isn’t possible to visit Oslo, Bergen, the western fjords, the Atlantic Road, and the Lofoten Islands on their one-week trip," she explained.
"Start by writing down your must-see spots, and find them on the map before deciding which area and route you want to take," Lisa suggested.
"Most people end up having to sacrifice either the north or the south if their trip is less than 2 weeks long. By understanding early on how big Norway is, and how long it will take you to cover distances as you travel, you are setting yourself up for success!"
