Norwegian krone: how far will it go?
-
Buying food in supermarkets and cooking it yourself can save money. But buying alcohol is significantly more expensive than the UK, whether you do it in supermarkets or pubs and bars
-
Accommodation can be surprisingly reasonable, though – especially if you use services like Airbnb or hostels. Specialist accommodation in hard-to-reach locations may push costs up

If you’re travelling to see the Northern Lights, you may need to venture north into the Arctic Circle and travel as part of an organised tour to stand the best chance. There’s no cast-iron guarantee of seeing the aurora borealis, but local experts can help

Numerous attractions in Oslo are free to look around, such as the Akerhus Fortress, Vigeland Park, the Opera House, City Hall (where the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded) and waterfront. Public transport is reasonably priced, and you can get day passes for the whole city at any metro station
-
Getting around is best done by renting a car. Trains can take far longer than driving and be very expensive, while cars are adjusted for the winter weather and road quality is high. There are few motorways as we’d understand them, so driving across country can reward with beautiful views as well
