For the Freedom To Roam, if you have done this, did you bring your own gear or can you rent equipment when you arrive? I don’t think we’d want to “roam” the entire two weeks of our trip but would consider renting tents along the way to not have to haul them around every place we tour.

In reply to Ileana. Kayak, I just paid 333.00 round trip out of Boston to Oslo. We're flying in January because we ski and want to see the borealis lights.

In reply to Jack WESTBYE. Wow! Would you please elaborate on how is it that you keep your trips to no more than $800. I'd love to know how you do it. Thanks!

So many great ideas! We love travelling on the cheap, I always feel like you see and do more when you aren’t secluding yourself in a hotel or going with tour groups.

Please correct; The water is safe to drink from taps everywhere, and outside cities it is safe to drink even directly from rivers and creeks…

Thank you for a fair description of my beautiful country – nice you had so good experiences. Yes, it is quite expencive, but still….
I guess the “unknown” secret of Norway is The right to Roam – known as Allemannsretten in norwegian. By law everybody (alle mann) has the right to live and harvest the nature (a few exceptions) for fish, berries, mushrooms, wild flowers etc – for free. Outside the cities the freshwater is tasty and safe to drink from taps, even directly from the rivers and creeks.

In reply to Heather. Super jealous! After seeing Scandinavia in the winter, we would love to explore during the summer. I really hope you get the chance to go :-)
