How does one go about finding private tours/excursions for Norway?

We just booked our first trip to Norway with Holland America for end of July 2024. Most of the ship's offered excursions are already full.  

I have never done a private tour, nor do I know how to find one.

Ports we are visiting : Eidfjord, Stavanger, Skjolden.  

Interests are waterfalls, scenery

Easy to Moderate levels.

If OP chooses to go in March - just remember that in all ports on the itinerary then the days are much shorter. So yes, larger chance of seeing the northern lights, BUT less chance of seeing much else in the darkness that sets in rather early in March....

As a native Norwegian, who actually live above the Arctic Circle, I have two different advices:

• If the main purpose of the cruise is the hope to see the Northen Lights (Aurora Borealis), then I would choose March. 
• If the main purpose is to see lots of different scenery along the way, then I would choose the cruise in August.
