      I was there in 2014.
      It was the best biker experience I have ever had. The mileage was tough 7,200km in 11 days. Started in Oslo drove up through Sweden, Finland the Tri international border (Norway Finland Russia) near Kirkenes.
      On up to Nordkapp. Then south traveling down the beautiful west coast. Taking in Tromso, Lofoten Islands, Geirangerfjord, Bergen, Preikestolen and then back to Oslo.
      Please don't let the expensive reputation put you off. All in all It was a cheap holiday. We mostly camped and sometimes used a cabin. Petrol was not crazy maybe a bit higher then home (Ireland) but not much.
      Shop in supermarkets mentioned. The only thing we noticed and to watch out for is most places closes at 9pm.
      Most importantly no access to campsites if you are caught late getting to a destination. Wild camping may not always be an option. As for alcohol, we only had a drink in the last night in Oslo. Nothing remarkable cost wise.
      WORD OF WARNING! One of our group was done for speeding in Bergen by an unmarked police car (all blacked out Audi).
      He got fined 7,800nok (743e). It was our second last day and a bit of a bummer to the end of the holiday. We were all well warned about strict traffic laws and expensive speeding fines.
      It is difficult to get from Ireland to mainland Europe, for time saving we used a company where they took our bikes a week before, with all the luggage to Oslo. So bikes were delivered and ready to go when we arrived.
      We flew from Dublin to Oslo (Rigg) with just biker gear and helmet. It saved about 7-8 days of traveling

      Moskitos are a real pain all over the planet . I live in St-Mathieu du Parc Québec Canada and I beleive I feed the whole region with differents stinging insects. . : (

      Hello, thanks for share the video. It is helping me to plan my trip next month. Can you confirm if we pay the fuel with credit card they make a deposit of 150€ during some days, but if we pay with debit card, they don't? Thank you

      Thank you for sharing these very useful tips and easing up awareness of your beautiful country. I would be traveling there for work soon and actually planning on renting a motorcycle instead of a car

      can you pitch your tent in middle of nowhere ? or it has to be in camping place! i just find it silly to travel in beautiful wilderness, but obliged to camp with people, i mean the whole experience is solo travel in huge almost limitless forest and mountains

      Mate, how do you remember those alcohol rules and restrictions, sounds like hardship to me – please consider relocation south, like me to Down Under 🙂 Cheers …

      I'm planning on riding from UK to norway and was wondering if norway takes contact less straight from my bank in the uk like an automatic currency exchange

      Thank you for this vid. I plan to visit Norway on a bike in 2023. From your experiences, if I have time in mid-late May or early September for a two week trip on two wheels, which one would you choose? Thank you and best wishes from Poland!

      Congrats, great video, it helps a lot for people willing to travel to Norway with motor bike. It sound the only real bad news are mosquitos 🙂 Actually I'm not too interest in getting to North Cape.. it seems to me a bit of a trophy that I don't care while I'm more interest in visiting fjords in Norway. Could you suggest major roads and villages that are a "must" for you to visit from Olso to Lofoten Islands? Any help is highly appreciated. Best wishes from Italy. Cheers.

      Thanx for this kind hints and sympathic "teaching". I.ve been in NOR in 2018 and it was by far the best trip I.ve ever done (except of British Columbia). This year I will visit Norway again on my BMW 1150 GSA (called "das Eisenschwein" –> iron pig). I am very happy to come again, and I loved the calm riding because of speed limits and the very nice people everywhere!!! Thanx, Henry 👍🤓
