time, here are the essential facts to know when planning your motorhome tour of Norway. We dive into more detail on each of these later in this guide.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Weather<\/strong> \u2013 for a snow-free journey, aim to be travelling in the far north in June, July and August where you can experience beautifully sunny days (and nights inside the Arctic Circle, where the sun will shine all night).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Currency<\/strong> \u2013 Norway uses the Norwegian Krone (NOK) \u2013 and 10 NOK is roughly \u00a31.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Insurance<\/strong> \u2013 most motorhome insurance policies will cover Norway \u2013 check your policy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Language <\/strong>\u2013 locals speak Norwegian but generally speak flawless English too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Place to Stay <\/strong>\u2013 Norway has a \u2018right to roam\u2019 law which enables motorhomes to free camp across much of the country. In addition there\u2019s a good network of aires and campsites.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mobile Phone and Internet<\/strong> \u2013 although not in the EU, several UK-based telco companies offer pay-as-you-go or contract SIM cards where you can use your UK allowance in Norway, subject to restrictions. We use Three\u2019s Internet with Legs SIM cards in Norway.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Getting there from the UK<\/strong> \u2013 there is no direct ferry from the UK to Norway or Denmark, so gear up for a road trip folks! There are various bridge and ferry options available once you\u2019re in Denmark.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Renting a Van<\/strong> \u2013 if you don\u2019t have the time to drive your own motorhome, there are several companies renting vans in Norway. Expect prices of roughly \u00a3700 to \u00a32000 a week for a two berth panel van.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customs<\/strong> \u2013 Norway has customs controls limiting the import of alcohol, as well as other foodstuffs (you can&#8217;t bring in potatoes for example). Check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toll.no\/en\/travelling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Norwegian customs website<\/a> for more details.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pet Dogs <\/strong>\u2013 as well as a valid Pet Passport, your pet dog will need a vet-administered worming treatment before entering Norway, like when returning to the UK.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Roads<\/strong> \u2013 generally well-maintained but speed limits are low. The fastest routes from Oslo in the south to the North Cape (about 1200 miles) go through Sweden, so Sweden\u2019s sometimes used as a \u2018back door\u2019 into Norway. Many roads and tunnels are narrow, and you\u2019ll need to allow more time for journeys.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Headlights <\/strong>\u2013 you legally need your dipped headlights on when driving, even in bright daylight.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Compulsory Equipment<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theaa.com\/~\/media\/the-aa\/pdf\/touring-tips\/compulsory-equipment.pdf?la=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">download the AA&#8217;s latest requirements PDF<\/a> to see what you need to carry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tyres<\/strong> &#8211; check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theaa.com\/european-breakdown-cover\/driving-in-europe\/snow-chains-winter-tyres\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the AA&#8217;s page for the latest details<\/a>. If you plan to travel to Norway in winter, be aware of the difficult road conditions and plan to use studded or winter tyres.<\/li>\n<li><strong>LPG (Gas) <\/strong>\u2013 available from limited locations across Norway. Plan in advance to avoid running out.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tolls <\/strong>\u2013 Norway has various toll roads across the country but they aren\u2019t massively expensive, and some are hard to avoid.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ferries<\/strong> \u2013 Norway\u2019s coastline is enormously indented with fjords and peppered with islands, so you\u2019ll most likely be using lots of ferries. They don\u2019t need to be booked, but the costs increase dramatically for vans over 6 metres long, and for each additional metre.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1eg2rx-b09ef17a1a81523cc1782cad244bdd36\">\n.flex_column.av-1eg2rx-b09ef17a1a81523cc1782cad244bdd36{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1eg2rx-b09ef17a1a81523cc1782cad244bdd36 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jooiwkb7-78408a052961927d1b1536db0152dfbf\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-jooiwkb7-78408a052961927d1b1536db0152dfbf{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-jooiwkb7-78408a052961927d1b1536db0152dfbf .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-jooiwkb7-78408a052961927d1b1536db0152dfbf .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-jooiwkb7-78408a052961927d1b1536db0152dfbf av-special-heading-h2  avia-builder-el-15  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Great Places to Motorhome to in Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3asvzwt-7a0549459e28a415575daaa4c9524f23\">\n.flex_column.av-3asvzwt-7a0549459e28a415575daaa4c9524f23{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3asvzwt-7a0549459e28a415575daaa4c9524f23 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><p><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joob2lno-b876301957e2d16472e2074fabcfe0ef '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Norway&#8217;s packed full of simply incredible places.

class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Norway has a reputation for being incredibly expensive to travel. The great news for anyone with their own motorhome or campervan is this: that simply doesn&#8217;t apply to you! If you stock up well with food before entering Scandinavia, and limit eating out or buying local beer and wine, you can extensively travel this incredible country for not much money.<\/p>\n<p>On our tour in 2016 we spent 11 weeks (78 days) in the summer in Norway and <strong>averaged less than \u00a330 a day for two people plus a dog<\/strong>. That included all of our day-to-day costs: diesel, supermarket shopping before we entered Norway and restocking when we left, shopping in Norway, road tolls, LPG, overnight stays, visiting a museum in Oslo, ferries and so on. It didn&#8217;t include our one-off costs such as insurance and van depreciation, nor did it include the diesel, bridges or ferries to get to Norway in the first place.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3b15x7x-1928f94f552f4d58a89b2965c51f3e09\">\n.flex_column.av-3b15x7x-1928f94f552f4d58a89b2965c51f3e09{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3b15x7x-1928f94f552f4d58a89b2965c51f3e09 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-48  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_heading  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jooki0q2-d134d0d7c563b399a5e133a622a84f69\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jooki0q2-d134d0d7c563b399a5e133a622a84f69 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jooki0q2-d134d0d7c563b399a5e133a622a84f69 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jooki0q2-d134d0d7c563b399a5e133a622a84f69 av-styling- avia-align-center'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-30950 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-30950 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Norway-Motorhome-Tour-Costs-Breakdown.jpg\" alt='OurTour Norway Motorhome Tour Costs Breakdown' title='OurTour Norway Motorhome Tour Costs Breakdown'  height=\"363\" width=\"646\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Norway-Motorhome-Tour-Costs-Breakdown.jpg 646w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Norway-Motorhome-Tour-Costs-Breakdown-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Norway-Motorhome-Tour-Costs-Breakdown-450x253.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 646px) 100vw, 646px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jookfikl-ac58f59ef35dcfe30d3e783d292e6260 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>* we stocked up with around \u00a3200 of food before we arrived and spent a further \u00a3100 when left to replenish empty cupboards.

The road networks seem to be fully open from the end of May until October and peak season is July, when the Norwegians have their summer holidays. The country is huge so there is plenty of room for everyone, but it\u2019s worth making note that the motorhome parking\u00a0in popular places and cities will get full in July. We arrived in the north of the country in mid-July, so by the time we hit the \u2018hot spots\u2019, we were\u00a0out of peak season.<\/p>\n<p>Midsummer is a huge thing in Scandinavia, so if you fancy a party make sure you are there for then. Getting up into the Arctic Circle during June and July will let you experience the Midnight Sun \u2013 we recommend eye masks as it really messed up our sleep patterns even though we blacked out the van as much as possible. From the end of August onwards, if you are lucky, you may get to see the Northern Lights too (the further north you are, the better chance you\u2019ll have).<\/p>\n<p>The weather in summer was generally warm, even in the Arctic. We needed sun cream on a fair few days, and sported shorts from time to time. Generally we\u2019d be OK in walking boots, jeans and T-shirts with jumpers and a light coat.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4eqatpp-225075acc9996d3d4392ef9e0b83b8bc\">\n.flex_column.av-4eqatpp-225075acc9996d3d4392ef9e0b83b8bc{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-4eqatpp-225075acc9996d3d4392ef9e0b83b8bc av_one_half  avia-builder-el-55  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_one_full  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jophz2aj-37e52fb781d6f3c2dc52454f1397230a\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jophz2aj-37e52fb781d6f3c2dc52454f1397230a img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jophz2aj-37e52fb781d6f3c2dc52454f1397230a .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jophz2aj-37e52fb781d6f3c2dc52454f1397230a av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-56  el_before_av_image  avia-builder-el-first '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-30972 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-30972 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway.jpg\" alt='Midnight Sun in Norway' title='Midnight Sun in Norway'  height=\"512\" width=\"1024\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway-705x353.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Midnight-Sun-in-Norway-450x225.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-u3f5cd-d673d0db0414faabb016b160210a2341\">\n.flex_column.av-u3f5cd-d673d0db0414faabb016b160210a2341{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-u3f5cd-d673d0db0414faabb016b160210a2341 av_one_full first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-g5xqi5-dfc925bed7006eb10f6d89e261260fa7\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-g5xqi5-dfc925bed7006eb10f6d89e261260fa7{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-g5xqi5-dfc925bed7006eb10f6d89e261260fa7 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-g5xqi5-dfc925bed7006eb10f6d89e261260fa7 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-g5xqi5-dfc925bed7006eb10f6d89e261260fa7 av-special-heading-h2'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Driving Your Own Motorhome to Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-joo9r2sy-29b160751ef2ec19e4d4917d72cfba6f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>There are no ferry routes running between the UK and Norway, or even between the UK and Denmark, so it\u2019s road trip time folks unless you find a freight service to ship your van across the North Sea. You have these options (with tons of variants in between):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fastest Route<\/strong> \u2013 EuroTunnel to France. Then drive across France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany to Denmark. Drive to Hirtshals in northern Denmark and take a ferry to Kristiansand. Google Maps shows this route as 1116 miles, and taking (an optimistic) 21 hours of driving, tunnel and ferries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Route via Sweden <\/strong>\u2013 as above, but instead of taking a ferry from Denmark to Norway, drive across the Storeb\u00e6lt toll bridge in Denmark, then the \u00d8resund toll bridge to cross into Sweden. From there drive across the land border into Norway. The \u00d8resund bridge costs roughly \u20ac50 for vans up to 6 metres, and \u20ac100 for vans from 6m to 10m. Pay online rather than at the toll booth and you\u2019ll save about \u20ac5 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oresundsbron.com\/en\/prices\">www.oresundsbron.com\/en\/prices<\/a>). The Storeb\u00e6lt bridge costs roughly \u20ac34 for a <6m, 3500Kg van, \u20ac51 for >6m, 3500Kg or \u20ac85 for >3500Kg, <10m van (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.storebaelt.dk\/english\/toll-charges\">www.storebaelt.dk\/english\/toll-charges<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Route from the Baltics<\/strong> \u2013 on a longer European tour you can take a ferry from Tallinn in Estonia across the Gulf of Finland to Helsinki. From there, you can drive north through Finland, across the Arctic Circle and cross into Norway either directly (makes sense if you\u2019re heading for Nordkapp), or via Sweden (if you\u2019re heading to the Lofoten Islands).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Whichever route you opt for, before driving into Scandinavia, make sure you\u2019re well stocked up on tinned and dried food, if you want to avoid some of Norway\u2019s high supermarket costs. Many motorhomes are well weighed down with wine and beer too, but be careful as Norway has strict limits on how much alcohol you can import.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jooa0e4l-13c229d13ec6aea3a3d5551977d74a30\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jooa0e4l-13c229d13ec6aea3a3d5551977d74a30 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jooa0e4l-13c229d13ec6aea3a3d5551977d74a30 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jooa0e4l-13c229d13ec6aea3a3d5551977d74a30 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-57  el_after_av_image  avia-builder-el-last '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-30912 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-30912 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2.jpg\" alt='Getting to Norway by Motorhome' title='Getting to Norway by Motorhome'  height=\"720\" width=\"1280\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2-705x397.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Getting-to-Norway-by-Motorhome-2-450x253.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-d8e51c80239fc5f109b8e715cd5c6448\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d8e51c80239fc5f109b8e715cd5c6448{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d8e51c80239fc5f109b8e715cd5c6448 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d8e51c80239fc5f109b8e715cd5c6448 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-d8e51c80239fc5f109b8e715cd5c6448 av-special-heading-h3'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Our Motorhome Route to Norway<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3x20vil-ad964fd897236257873d4e0c5d976da4\">\n.flex_column.av-3x20vil-ad964fd897236257873d4e0c5d976da4{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3x20vil-ad964fd897236257873d4e0c5d976da4 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-jopkrc80-1a623ba2dfba5302de1f4a8be68cb88e '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>In January 2016 we set off to tour Scandinavia.

We took the Oresund Bridge into Denmark and after a quick tour of the country we drove\u00a0across the Netherlands to catch the ferry from the Hook of Holland to Harwich.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3lhdqdp-da3782ac817e61fe1f6ed49ee4297dac\">\n.flex_column.av-3lhdqdp-da3782ac817e61fe1f6ed49ee4297dac{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3lhdqdp-da3782ac817e61fe1f6ed49ee4297dac av_one_half flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jopkihhc-e6d09e5ce60d7092ace3c05a2d664d94\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jopkihhc-e6d09e5ce60d7092ace3c05a2d664d94 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jopkihhc-e6d09e5ce60d7092ace3c05a2d664d94 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jopkihhc-e6d09e5ce60d7092ace3c05a2d664d94 av-styling- avia-align-center'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-30838 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-30838 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Motorhome-Tour-Europe-Morocco-Year-4.png\" alt='' title='OurTour Motorhome Tour Europe Morocco Year 4'  height=\"597\" width=\"558\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Motorhome-Tour-Europe-Morocco-Year-4.png 558w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Motorhome-Tour-Europe-Morocco-Year-4-280x300.png 280w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/OurTour-Motorhome-Tour-Europe-Morocco-Year-4-450x481.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1mmk66l-7311355967a2869cd0a9ab722735bffc\">\n.flex_column.av-1mmk66l-7311355967a2869cd0a9ab722735bffc{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1mmk66l-7311355967a2869cd0a9ab722735bffc av_one_full  avia-builder-el-58  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_heading  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-14avvwt-619b6a00b1cb9e5a83bda0d0847179be\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-14avvwt-619b6a00b1cb9e5a83bda0d0847179be{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-14avvwt-619b6a00b1cb9e5a83bda0d0847179be .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-14avvwt-619b6a00b1cb9e5a83bda0d0847179be .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-14avvwt-619b6a00b1cb9e5a83bda0d0847179be av-special-heading-h2  avia-builder-el-59  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Renting a Motorhome in Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ywz06l-aed918600f667017079357b324440773\">\n.flex_column.av-ywz06l-aed918600f667017079357b324440773{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-ywz06l-aed918600f667017079357b324440773 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joo969lp-120a5e7c61513931b5cf1ff9851ee66a '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>If you\u2019ve not got the time to drive your own van to Norway, there are a fair few options for renting a van. The most obvious consideration, other than cost, is where you can pick the van up and drop it off in Norway. If your main interest is the Lofoten Islands and the Arctic, and you\u2019ve only got a week or two, then a pick up and drop off in Troms\u00f8\u00a0or on the Lofotens themselves will make far more sense than Oslo or Bergen.<\/p>\n<p>Companies like McRent (<a href=\"http:\/\/mcrent.eu\">mcrent.eu<\/a>) will provide you with a van in Norway, for a premium compared with Germany, but again if you\u2019re limited for time it\u2019ll be worth it. We also saw some small \u2018Arctic Campers\u2019 in summer on the Lofotens (<a href=\"http:\/\/arcticcampers.no\">arcticcampers.no<\/a>), which were probably a good budget option to get a feel for the country.<\/p>\n<p>Another option is to use AirBnB (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.airbnb.co.uk\">www.airbnb.co.uk<\/a>). Quite a few Norwegian van owners rent their motorhomes out by the night, and may prove to be the most flexible and cheapest option. Make sure the owner is agreeing to you driving the van around when you make the booking, and they\u2019re not just renting it out as a static base.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style

becomes into its own for the motorhomer. Norway, like much of Scandinavia, has an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitnorway.com\/plan-your-trip\/travel-tips-a-z\/right-of-access\/\">ancient right of\u00a0freedom to roam<\/a>, which was enshrined in law in 1957 \u2013\u00a0<em>allemannsretten<\/em>. Since the law was written way before modern motorhomes appeared, it doesn\u2019t specifically apply to them, but the spirit of the law includes us van-travellers (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.klikk.no\/motor\/bobil\/article921623.ece\">there\u2019s an interesting article here<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 in Norwegian but you can use Google Translate to read it). The general spirit is you can free camp somewhere under these conditions, although we came across exceptions to some of these rules:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You need to be 150m from dwellings<\/li>\n<li>Stay no longer than 48 hours<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t stay if there is an official sign requesting you don\u2019t park there overnight<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t put out awnings, chairs and so on<\/li>\n<li>Also, be aware of the rules around campfires in summer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In practice\u00a0we found we could have free camped across most of the country, but we opted to pay for some aires and campsites so we could be in wonderful spots like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/a-to-haukland-bouncing-about-the-lofotens\/\">Reine\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/possibly-the-best-campsite-in-the-world-melkevoll-bretun-norway\/\">Briksdal<\/a>. Note that unlike much of Europe, caravans use the same areas as motorhomes for free camping in Norway; don\u2019t be surprised to see them parked up alongside you in an aire or car park.<\/p>\n<p>We used these resources to find parking places:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <a href=\"http:\/\/park4night.com\/\">park4night.com<\/a> database and tablet application \u2013 in various languages with translation packs<\/li>\n<li>The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/campingcar-infos.com\/\">campingcar-infos.com<\/a> database \u2013 in French<\/li>\n<li>The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/ourbumble.com\/\">ourbumble.com<\/a> blog \u2013 in English<\/li>\n<li>A leaflet called \u2018Camping\u2019 from the Norway tourist info which unfolds to a big map which shows the picnic\/rest spots \u2013 many of which were simply beautiful, safe, free and often with toilets available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Aires typically charged 10 to 15 Nok a night (\u00a310 to \u00a315), although the one at Reine charged an outrageous 30 Nok (:-)), made palatable by the simply stunning scenery. Campsites came in at about \u00a318 to \u00a325 a night with electricity and showers charged in addition, so we used our own facilities. In total we paid \u00a3378 (\u00a352 of which was to park for the night at Nordkapp as entry was 260 Nok each) which roughly equates to \u00a34.80 a night for all of our overnight parking and camping.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-41k57jh-00f724e257b2f33edb905065d07a1bd9\">\n.flex_column.av-41k57jh-00f724e257b2f33edb905065d07a1bd9{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-41k57jh-00f724e257b2f33edb905065d07a1bd9 av_one_full first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-joodlimb-d6f097cef1cc25840dee5bd30a4b67f9\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-joodlimb-d6f097cef1cc25840dee5bd30a4b67f9{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-joodlimb-d6f097cef1cc25840dee5bd30a4b67f9 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-joodlimb-d6f097cef1cc25840dee5bd30a4b67f9 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-joodlimb-d6f097cef1cc25840dee5bd30a4b67f9 av-special-heading-h2'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Driving in Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1bjygod-332506f34670456c3f68802c480a56b7\">\n.flex_column.av-1bjygod-332506f34670456c3f68802c480a56b7{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1bjygod-332506f34670456c3f68802c480a56b7 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joodq4fr-c631035c7d31fec5a8eb4c42d622825d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Norway\u2019s a fairly easy country to drive around in the summer months, with the main challenge being the narrowness of the roads in some places (especially with other motorhomes flying towards you).<\/p>\n<p>Norway is big, certainly bigger than we realised. We drove 4849 kilometres and that only took us around the edge. However, it isn\u2019t just the distances in Norway that you need to consider, the roads are slow, very slow. There are two reasons for this; first they are twisting, wiggly, seemingly impossible roads and second the speed limits.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of towns and villages the speed limit is usually 80 kph (50 mph), but in many places you\u2019ll be lucky to consistently get close to the maximum speed. There are a lot of single track roads with passing places (marked by a white M on a blue background) which will slow you down. For this reason, many people\u00a0use Sweden or Finland\u2019s faster roads to get to where you want to start, or to get back from the end of your Norway journey. Their roads are also toll-free.<\/p>\n<p>Expect to spend quite a bit of time in tunnels, some lit, some unlit, which may help explain the road rule that you need your lights on all the time. One day we drove\u00a020 kilometres, 18 of which were in three tunnels. We marvelled at the ones with roundabouts in them and those that spiralled up through a mountain. In some we would descend down for kilometres until we were under the sea, then crawl our way back out for several more kilometres. Some are narrow, to the point passing places are used inside them, but these ones were generally not busy. Norway also has the longest road tunnel in the world (over 15 miles long!) at L\u00e6rdal, but if you aren\u2019t in a rush then we\u2019d recommend taking the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitnorway.com\/listings\/aurlandsfjellet-national-tourist-route\/12186\/\">Aurlandsfjellet Tourist Route<\/a>\u00a0which runs over the mountain above it.<\/p>\n<p>There are several Tourist Routes across the country and most of them are fantastic drives (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitnorway.com\/plan-your-trip\/travel-tips-a-z\/national-tourist-routes\/\">here\u2019s\u00a0a good summary of the best<\/a>). It is worth sitting down and doing some planning, as to what you want to see before you set off, as to visit the main sights or drive the tourist routes you\u2019ll normally need to either take ferries or pass road tolls to get there. We used a\u00a0<a

Since April 2016 motorhomes are no longer charged the higher \u2018over 3.5 tonnes\u2019 rate, instead all tolls for motorhomes are the same as for cars. Across the whole country we clocked up around \u00a356 worth of tolls. You have a warning sign that you are approaching a toll a couple of kilometres before it, then just before the cameras there is a sign telling you how much it will be, I wrote down each one as we passed it so we can check it off on our bills.<\/p>\n<p>We initially registered with Norway\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.autopass.no\/en\/visitors-payment#headingid628328\">Autopass<\/a>\u00a0scheme, which takes \u00a330 from your bank\u00a0when you pass the first toll then uses that money to pay for subsequent tolls, however the visitor\u2019s payment scheme only lasts for two months. Once this ran out we registered with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.epcplc.com\/\">EPC<\/a>\u00a0who\u00a0will invoice us for tolls after we return home. We initially used Autopass as we would not be at home to receive the invoices from EPC and pay them, however on registering with EPC we found they will send the invoices by email \u2013 if visiting Norway again we will just register with EPC and not bother with the Autopass scheme. When you see all the road and tunnel building going on, and think of the cost to maintain some of the mind-boggling stretches of road, the tolls are a small price to pay.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2yp6zf1-e64950da95292066201824dddaaba3e6\">\n.flex_column.av-2yp6zf1-e64950da95292066201824dddaaba3e6{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-2yp6zf1-e64950da95292066201824dddaaba3e6 av_one_full first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3swxxn1-beb0d4cdb16dad4ea112857facdc15f9\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-3swxxn1-beb0d4cdb16dad4ea112857facdc15f9{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-3swxxn1-beb0d4cdb16dad4ea112857facdc15f9 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-3swxxn1-beb0d4cdb16dad4ea112857facdc15f9 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-3swxxn1-beb0d4cdb16dad4ea112857facdc15f9 av-special-heading-h3'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Ferries in Norway<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3h8uh71-4815b0aa809ee0045574a281241576e9\">\n.flex_column.av-3h8uh71-4815b0aa809ee0045574a281241576e9{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3h8uh71-4815b0aa809ee0045574a281241576e9 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joodq4fr-c631035c7d31fec5a8eb4c42d622825d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Norway is big, certainly bigger than we realised.

There are a lot of single track roads with passing places (marked by a white M on a blue background) which will slow you down. For this reason, many people\u00a0use Sweden or Finland\u2019s faster roads to get to where you want to start, or to get back from the end of your Norway journey. Their roads are also toll-free.<\/p>\n<p>Expect to spend quite a bit of time in tunnels, some lit, some unlit, which may help explain the road rule that you need your lights on all the time. One day we drove\u00a020 kilometres, 18 of which were in three tunnels. We marvelled at the ones with roundabouts in them and those that spiralled up through a mountain. In some we would descend down for kilometres until we were under the sea, then crawl our way back out for several more kilometres. Some are narrow, to the point passing places are used inside them, but these ones were generally not busy. Norway also has the longest road tunnel in the world (over 15 miles long!) at L\u00e6rdal, but if you aren\u2019t in a rush then we\u2019d recommend taking the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitnorway.com\/listings\/aurlandsfjellet-national-tourist-route\/12186\/\">Aurlandsfjellet Tourist Route<\/a>\u00a0which runs over the mountain above it.<\/p>\n<p>There are several Tourist Routes across the country and most of them are fantastic drives (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitnorway.com\/plan-your-trip\/travel-tips-a-z\/national-tourist-routes\/\">here\u2019s\u00a0a good summary of the best<\/a>). It is worth sitting down and doing some planning, as to what you want to see before you set off, as to visit the main sights or drive the tourist routes you\u2019ll normally need to either take ferries or pass road tolls to get there. We used a\u00a0<a

><p>Petrol and diesel prices change throughout the day and vary from day to day and place to place. The cheapest day we found to be a Sunday, but other than that we struggled to find any sort of logic behind when they changed. Both fuels get more expensive the further north you go, the cheapest we saw for diesel was 10.69 Nok (about \u00a31 a litre), the most expensive around 15 Nok (\u00a31.50). Keep your eyes on the prices and fill up when you see it cheap.<\/p>\n<p>LPG is no long as widely available as it was a couple of years ago (if our LPG Points of Interest on our\u00a0satnav is anything to go by). It looks like they are favouring electric car charge points instead. LPG can still be found in most cities, sometimes tucked away on an industrial estate. We used the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lpgnorge.no\/stasjonsoversikt\/english\/\">LPG Norge website<\/a>\u00a0to find places to fill up, but there are other companies supplying it, so will be more places than shown on here. If using the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mylpg.eu\/stations\/norway\/list\">MyLPG.eu<\/a>\u00a0website, check when the stations were last confirmed as being open as many of them are no longer there. Note \u2013 if using Finland to get to\/from Norway there is no LPG in Finland, so stock up before you cross the border.<\/p>\n<p>We couldn\u2019t see much standardisation between the LPG refill stations: some were manned, others you filled yourself. Some closed at night or on Sunday, some stayed open 24 hours. Some were fully automated. Some used the UK bayonet connector, others the French dish-style connector. Prices were typically around 70p to 80p a litre.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5\">\n.flex_column.av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5 av_one_full first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3kvtua5-ae4a0170edd94a7bb71c7458217bbfa2\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-3kvtua5-ae4a0170edd94a7bb71c7458217bbfa2{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-3kvtua5-ae4a0170edd94a7bb71c7458217bbfa2 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-3kvtua5-ae4a0170edd94a7bb71c7458217bbfa2 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-3kvtua5-ae4a0170edd94a7bb71c7458217bbfa2 av-special-heading-h2'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Motorhome Service Points in Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2tn4mml-73a2c10b2802b2594701dba5c0aab440\">\n.flex_column.av-2tn4mml-73a2c10b2802b2594701dba5c0aab440{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-2tn4mml-73a2c10b2802b2594701dba5c0aab440 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joodq4fr-c631035c7d31fec5a8eb4c42d622825d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The campsites we used all had service points for motorhomes.

><p>Norway uses the Norwegian Krone (NOK, nok or kr). When we visited in the summer of 2016 the rate was around 10 nok = \u00a30.95, so we simply divided prices by 10 to get a rough pound price. They no longer use \u00f8re which was their version of pence (100 \u00f8re =\u00a01\u00a0Krone). Krone coins are 1, 5, 10 and 20 while notes are 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000.<\/p>\n<p>Most transactions in Norway are done with a card instead of cash \u2013 the receptionist\u00a0at the campsite in Oslo mentioned how surprised she was that we were paying in cash. We loaded \u00a3500 onto our Caxton FX card and used this for cash withdrawals while, everything else went on our Halifax Clarity Credit Card. We got so used to paying for everything on the card that we had to make an effort to spend the cash, and still left with some currency.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5\">\n.flex_column.av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-u82bv1-1db941dce9b77b1f168f7599b84ac9d5 av_one_full first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-joodzdwi-1a0b729625f077e1c13678774193ba3e\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-joodzdwi-1a0b729625f077e1c13678774193ba3e{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-joodzdwi-1a0b729625f077e1c13678774193ba3e .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-joodzdwi-1a0b729625f077e1c13678774193ba3e .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-joodzdwi-1a0b729625f077e1c13678774193ba3e av-special-heading-h2'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Buying Food and Drink in Norway<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1ymdv8t-8d7ffbf7014fc87d5230605bc7ab95b7\">\n.flex_column.av-1ymdv8t-8d7ffbf7014fc87d5230605bc7ab95b7{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1ymdv8t-8d7ffbf7014fc87d5230605bc7ab95b7 av_one_half first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-joodq4fr-c631035c7d31fec5a8eb4c42d622825d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>While in Norway we heard the phrase \u2018Norway is for the eyes, not the stomach\u2019, which\u00a0certainly proved to be true.

But look closely and you\u2019ll see that there are some things that are reasonably priced. Buy the store\u2019s own brand of goods, or from the \u2018First Price\u2019 range.<\/p>\n<p>By having a good look we found custard cremes labelled as \u2018Vanilla Biscuits\u2019 at just over 16.60 Nok for half a kilo (some of the cheapest biccies in the shop), ready salted crisps were cheaper than flavoured ones (around 26 Nok\u00a0for a big bag), so we added our own flavours (black pepper, fajita seasoning), own brand cornflakes were less than \u00a31 for a huge box and you could get massive 5kg bags of rice for around a fiver. When buying bread look at the prices, there is usually one called Loft that is a fraction of the price of the others (6.80 Nok compared to 30 \u2013 40 Nok). One of the best buys we found were from the \u2018Extra\u2019 chain of supermarkets, where you could get a cooked chicken for about 57 Nok. Finally, as always, keep your eyes open for the discount section, we picked up a huge piece of salmon for half price, cut it into sections and froze it for later.<\/p>\n<p>The cheapest supermarkets were Rema 1000 and Bunnpris, but they did lack a bit in range. For a better range we used Kiwi, Co-op and Extra. We also found the Europris stores to be very good for snacks and treats as well as fishing gear (they are a bit like a Wilkos).<\/p>\n<p>All drinks cans and plastic bottles have a \u2018pant\u2019 (deposit) on them, this is often in addition to the price on the label \u2013 usually 1 Nok for a can and 2.5 Nok for a bottle. Inside each supermarket you\u2019ll find a machine you can put your old cans (un-crushed) and bottles into; it will then offer you the option of having a voucher to the value of the deposits or giving the money to charity. If you opt for the voucher you have to use it in that shop at that time, you can\u2019t take it with you and use it elsewhere, so keep it handy for when you get to the till.<\/p>\n<p>When buying alcohol, the supermarkets will only sell stuff up to 4.75%, so you\u2019ll find beers, ciders and some weak wines in there. The prices on the shelf are usually per can (26 \u2013 35 Nok for beer), and opening a six pack to buy just one can is quite normal. Check the percentage before you buy, as they have a lot of alcohol-free beers! You can\u2019t buy alcohol from supermarkets after 8pm on a weekday, 6pm on a Saturday or any time on a Sunday, the shelves will be covered in a curtain to stop you from being tempted.<\/p>\n<p>For anything stronger than 4.75% you\u2019ll need to go to one of the state-owned \u2018vinmonopolet\u2019 stores which also sell spirits and wine, these tend to be in bigger towns. The prices in these stores are, as you might guess, exorbitant.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\"

To bring a pet into the country (and get back out again into the EU), they have to meet the EU Pet Passport rules, and also have to be treated for tapeworm before entering the country. We came in via Finland, which (as far as we can work out) meant we had to get him wormed by a vet in Estonia, which we did, but we didn\u2019t need to get him treated again before entering Norway. We weren\u2019t stopped at customs when we entered Norway from Finland, nor when we left Norway into Sweden, so neither\u00a0our paperwork nor Charlie\u2019s chip were checked.<\/p>\n<p>We read somewhere that dog food isn\u2019t allowed into Norway, but when we later checked the official customs web pages could find no mention of this, so we brought his dog food in with us. Again, since we weren\u2019t stopped at customs, we\u2019re not sure if this is legal or not.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we give Charlie the Seraquin joint supplement for his arthritis. We accidentally ran low on this in Norway, and found we couldn\u2019t buy it in the country. Ju tried to order it online and get it delivered to a campsite in Norway, but it seemed import restrictions wouldn\u2019t let us choose Norway as a delivery address. In the end we rationed his Seraquin dose, and picked it up from a pharmacy as soon as we entered Sweden.<\/p>\n<p>Note that in the summer months you legally have to keep your dog on a lead when out walking them, between 1 April and 20 August to help protect wildlife.

><p>In the north of the country \u2013 particularly inside the Arctic Circle, you\u2019ll probably come across reindeer beside and on the road. These semi-domesticated herds are owned by the Sami, natives of the north (<a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/farewell-to-finland-with-a-day-of-sami-culture-anar-inari\/\">whom we learned about in Finland<\/a>), who manage the herds but in general they roam free.<\/p>\n<p>Reindeer have zero road sense, and don\u2019t much care about your vehicle when you\u2019re sat behind them. Hitting one at speed wouldn\u2019t be a good idea. Keep and eye out for them as you go, and slow to a crawl if they\u2019re near or on the road. Look out for cars seemingly stopped for no reason in the road, they\u2019re probably sat behind a reindeer or two. Shouting at them out the window seems to work to get them moving!<\/p>\n<p>We saw lots of birdlife too, even becoming the victim of a territorial Arctic Turn at one point, which drew blood dive-bombing Jay on a beach in, erm, the Arctic. Moose are a bit harder to spot though and we only got a brief look at the one of them before it lumbered off into the forest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-62i5tfx-b3c7b7879091e7f8e35930806478bdb9\">\n.flex_column.av-62i5tfx-b3c7b7879091e7f8e35930806478bdb9{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-62i5tfx-b3c7b7879091e7f8e35930806478bdb9 av_one_half flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-joogb5l4-e480b81ea8b30481b3e1538160321b01\">\n.avia-image-container.av-joogb5l4-e480b81ea8b30481b3e1538160321b01 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-joogb5l4-e480b81ea8b30481b3e1538160321b01 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-joogb5l4-e480b81ea8b30481b3e1538160321b01 av-styling- avia-align-center'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-22708 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-22708 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC05293-1024x606.jpg\" alt='' title='DSC05293 (1024x606)'  height=\"606\" width=\"1024\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC05293-1024x606.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC05293-1024x606-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC05293-1024x606-768x455.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-joogb5l4-310db90d95a89b0e1a2752064916e9df\">\n.avia-image-container.av-joogb5l4-310db90d95a89b0e1a2752064916e9df img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-joogb5l4-310db90d95a89b0e1a2752064916e9df .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-joogb5l4-310db90d95a89b0e1a2752064916e9df av-styling- avia-align-center'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-22928 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-22928 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC06538-1024x586.jpg\" alt='' title='DSC06538 (1024x586)'  height=\"586\" width=\"1024\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC06538-1024x586.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC06538-1024x586-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC06538-1024x586-768x440.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-25f241957070c9fd6801aa5a617cbe6e\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-25f241957070c9fd6801aa5a617cbe6e{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-25f241957070c9fd6801aa5a617cbe6e .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-25f241957070c9fd6801aa5a617cbe6e .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-25f241957070c9fd6801aa5a617cbe6e av-special-heading-h1'><h1 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Are You New to Motorhome Touring?
