Our story

Salve Tours was born from a deep attachment to Nordic and Baltic countries, and a simple desire: to design fair, locally-rooted journeys, far from standardized tours.

The agency was founded in 2003, at the crossroads of Norway and Lithuania. For over twenty years, the team has developed in-depth expertise across Northern Europe — from Lapland to vast forests, from lakes to Nordic cities — and built lasting relationships with local partners who welcome travelers throughout the seasons.

Today, it's Ramutė who leads the agency and embodies its English-speaking voice. Around her, an experienced team designs each itinerary with the same requirement: listen, understand, adjust. Horse riding, trekking, family stays or small group departures — each proposal is thoughtfully crafted with respect for local territories, seasons and ways of life.

Here, we don't replicate standard itineraries. We craft journeys that reflect who you are.

Salve Tours is a member of the Nomadays collective. This partnership allows you to benefit from direct organization with a local team based between Norvège and Lithuania, while enjoying secure booking in France: payment in euros, deposited funds protection, APST guarantee and compliance with French travel law. You thus enjoy the best of both worlds: the proximity of an on-ground team and the strength of a protective legal framework.

“
Norway impresses with its natural power, but also with its serenity. It's a country that invites you to slow down, observe, and fully enjoy the journey.

Frequently asked questions about the agency

Do you still have questions? Here are the most frequently asked questions about how our agency works.

Salve Tours designs your trip directly en Norvège, with advisors who know the ground daily. You avoid intermediaries, gain in responsiveness and benefit from advice on genuinely lived experiences — no standardized marketing catalog.

Plan ideally 2 to 3 months before departure during peak seasons (hotels and guides are scarcer), 1 month is enough for quieter seasons. For last-minute departures, get in touch with us: we'll honestly tell you if we can put together a quality trip within the timeframe.

Yes, 7 days a week throughout your stay. You'll receive a local WhatsApp number + a dedicated emergency contact. Our on-site team can assist within hours in case of unexpected events (cancelled flight, illness, weather changes).

Your payments are 100% protected by the Professional Solidarity Association for Tourism. If a service provider (hotel, transport, etc.) or the agency fails, your funds are refunded. This is a mandatory guarantee for any French travel agency — Nomadays benefits from it across its entire network.

Yes, as much as possible. Changes made more than 30 days before departure are generally free of charge (excluding hotel rate differences). As your departure approaches, some bookings become less flexible — we always inform you of your options before confirmation.

Payment is made in full in France, in euros, with Nomadays — secured by credit card or bank transfer. You have no payments to make en Norvège: everything is pre-arranged (accommodations, transfers, guides, activities). You just need to budget for meals outside the itinerary and personal purchases.
