My cousin and I will have 3-4 nights in Norway in early July and the one certainty is that we will take the Norway in Nutshell trip from Bergen to Oslo. The question is whether to do it in a single, long day, or to spend a night or two in Flam or Balestrand. Flam is more convenient, being a stop on the tour, but Balestrand is more charming, and an art town. It is possible to go straight from Bergen to Balestrand on an express boat, but you would miss some of the NiN scenery. Here is my question: is it feasible to spend nights in Flam and make a day trip to Balestrand? I would love to hear from anyone who has expanded the NiN with overnight stays.
