According to the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), travel and tourism in Norway generated, directly and indirectly, roughly 4.6 percent of the country gross domestic product (GDP) in 2020. The total contribution of travel and tourism to Norway GDP amounted to nearly 155 billion Norwegian kroner in 2020 as you can see in Norway tourist map. Most international tourists visiting the country come from Europe, with travelers from Denmark, Germany, and Sweden recording the highest number of overnight stays in Norway in 2020. Overall, the annual consumption expenditure of international visitors rose consistently before the pandemic, reaching over 59 billion Norwegian kroner in 2019. However, domestic tourism consumption expenditure was significantly higher than international, adding up to over 107 billion kroner that year.

Given that they were among the countries reporting the highest number of overnight stays in 2020, Denmark and Sweden could play a relevant role in the Norwegian tourism market in 2021 as well as its shown in Norway tourist map. According to a survey conducted in April 2021, 10 percent of interviewed travelers from both these countries claimed they were planning to go on holiday in Norway over the next six months, while only four percent of tourists in France stated the same. That being said, the same study showed that 21 percent of surveyed French travelers saw Norway as a more attractive travel destination. Meanwhile, Denmark and Sweden were also some of the favorite summer holiday destinations among Norwegian tourists. They placed, respectively, second and third in the ranking of the preferred destinations of Norwegians for a vacation abroad in 2021, following Spain which topped the list that year.

Numbers from the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) show that 2017 was yet another record year for Norwegian tourism. A good summer and a relatively weak krone contributed to making the year profitable. The increase in tourists mainly occurred during the summer months, and the regions with the highest growth were Fjord Norway and Northern Norway. A considerable share of Norway tourists can be characterised as active rather than cultural tourists, and the vast majority come here to experience the landscape and take part in outdoor activities. There is, however, a broad overlap between the two categories. The typical tourist in Norway wants to have fun and experience fjords and mountains, but also to visit historical places, try local food and drink, and get to know the local way of life and culture as its mentioned in Norway tourist map.

The main attractions of Norway are the varied landscapes that extend across the Arctic Circle. It is famous for its fjord-indented coastline and its mountains, ski resorts, lakes and woods. The main tourist cities in Norway are Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Trondheim and Tromsø as you can see in Norway attractions map. Much of the nature of Norway remains unspoiled, and thus attracts numerous hikers and skiers. The fjords, mountains and waterfalls in Western and North Norway attract several hundred thousand foreign tourists each year. In the cities, cultural idiosyncrasies such as the Holmenkollen ski jump attract many visitors, as well as historic and cultural buildings and areas such as Bryggen in Bergen and the Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo. The culture of Norway evolved as a result of its sparse population, harsh climate, and relative isolation from the rest of Europe. It is therefore distinct from other countries in Europe in that it has fewer opulent palaces and castles, smaller agricultural areas, and longer travel distances.

Norway is a very popular attraction for winter sports. Two of the most popular skiing resorts are: Hemsedal, Trysil. Innovation Norway, a state-owned promotion company which is also in charge of tourism affairs, makes annual reports on the country most visited tourist attractions, both cultural and natural. The 2007 report lists 50 cultural and 20 natural attractions. The largest of Norway fjords, Sognefjord reaches 204 kilometers inland from the coastal village of Skjolden and branches off into countless smaller inlets and fjords along the way as its shown in Norway attractions map. At its widest, the King of the Fjords (as it is known by Norwegians) is almost five kilometers across, and the cliff walls reach as high as 1,307 meters, making a breathtaking sight. The largest of Norway museums dedicated to their seafaring ancestors, the Viking Ship Museum (Vikingskipshuset på Bygdøy) in Oslo features three 9th-century Viking vessels, each of which had been laid to rest as burial chambers for prominent Vikings.

A tourist attraction best suited for the active traveler thanks to the arduous journey required to get there, Pulpit Rock (Preikestolen) is nevertheless one of the most popular sights in Norway. Located near Stavanger, the destination requires ferry and bus rides and then a two-hour uphill hike to reach the almost perfectly flat-topped cliff, which looks over Lysefjord, more than 600 meters above the water as its mentioned in Norway attractions map. The Lofoten Islands form an archipelago off the coast of northwestern Norway and are a popular tourist destination for Norwegians and foreigners alike. Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the weather here is mild despite its location within the Arctic Circle. One of the most popular sightseeing opportunities in Bergen is the Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf. This vibrantly painted area was once the city center of trade and was dominated by Hanseatic merchants.
