Today we are saying goodbye to Norway after 3 weeks. The ferry departs at 14:00. Boarding is 2 hours prior. We draw an extremely positive balance of our trip and can only recommend it further. There are plenty of opportunities to explore the country; it doesn’t necessarily have to be by bicycle. The bike has the advantage that you get to know the land and its people better. We have only met friendly people who are helpful without being asked. The country is clean, the infrastructure is top-notch, thanks to the revenue from oil. Norway can be expensive in certain areas, for example, dining out. Sometimes it can also be very affordable, like ferries or museums. You automatically get free water served in every guesthouse. The hotels and the food were very good everywhere.
