How Much Does 1 Month In A CamperVan Cost in Norway | Van Life Scandinavia 

Love that you like my country :) Cheese is expensive, but bear in mind that the prices displayed are per kilogram. This also goes for vegetables, meat and so on.

Regarding fuel prices: Always fill up the tank on Sunday evening or Monday morning in Norway, because prices are always cheaper at this times. If you absolutely have to fill the tank before the weekend, do it before the week's second price peak, which is on Thursdays. Thanks a lot for your stunning and inspireing footages from Norway. ❤💯

Thank you❤

Norway's biggest attraction and arguably only tourist attraction is it's nature and it's mostly free, so they really stiff tourists of the few chances they get. We that live there get stiffed on our vices...meat, cheese, alcohol and nicotine. The bigger the vice the higher the relative cost. The gas prices fluactuate so much simply due to large competition. There's a station around every other ccrner in dense populated areas, so they compete under supply and demand fluctuations. Sunday is the most expensive with all the cars driving home from the cabin. Campers can save tons by refilling wisely in more remote stations.

Regarding booking trains and stuff online. Norwegians usually buy tickets a month or two in advance if we're going on vacation as the prices closer to departure tends to be *way* more expensive.

My best tip to reduce the food costs is to bring a fishing rod if you know anything about fishing and how to prepare it. To fish in lakes and rivers you usually have to pay a fee at the spot as well as a yearly fee to the state, but in the ocean, including the fjords, fishing is free. The quality of the fish is excellent, due to the cold water. Some people even come to Norway, and bring a freezer to stock up on fish. It is not very well received by the Norwegians if these fishing tourists only take the best pieces with them, and throw the rest to the seagulls. It became necessary to introduce a limit on how much fish you can take out of the country. Otherwise the "cheap brands" in Norway usually are just as good as the well known brands, but the knowledge of which you should choose is something you learn over time. There are some tests to be found, but they are in Norwegian language. As an example, the Rema 1000 caviar (on tube) is best in test. Cheese is one of the things Norwegians buy on our shopping trips to our neighboring countries, and since cheese can be stored and even get better by time it is one of the things people might like to bring while entering the country. Most Norwegians make our coffee and food at home. Many bake their bread and pastry themselves, and pick berries for free in nature. The high costs are probably due to the fact that all Norwegians get a decent salary.

I wouldn’t be too upset about exceeding the £1k budget. We’re here at the moment too… family of 4, and think you’ve done amazing! That said, we’re not the best at budgeting! We did think with the cost of living crisis at home, prices vs UK weren’t as surprising as we were expecting. Although still expensive of course!!

When you use some of the parking apps, it costs a little bit more than paying by card. Which I find really stupid. If I remember correctly, Easy Park is one of them. I discovered your channel a few days ago, really enjoying your videos! Greetings from a Norwegian 😊

Germany has cheaper fuel in the afternoons, when petrol stations are quieter. It might be the same in Norway.

2 people on the road for 30 days, and you've managed to do it under 1150£. Congratz! Well I was in the UK late april-mid May, this year, and OMG, it was expensive, specially if dining out. It's 5 yrs since last I visited Uk it had gotten Norwegian prices. Even talked to Americans, who were quite "shocked" in a positive way that Norway was cheaper than expected. At least you have good value when it comes to scenery and nature experiences. ;)

Very interested in this as we go at the end of the month for around 28 days. I would like to know how much the beer is though as all i hear is its expensive but no one says the price of supermarket beer. 😁I hear Rema 1000 is quite a reasonably priced supermarket for groceries etc. We will now catch up on your vloggs.

You mentioned taking a lot of ferries during the month--what did those total up to for cost?

You've been lucky with the exchange rates.

That’s reasonable, and Nicola is definitely worth it❤. Will the fridge magnets take you over 3500kg😂

Card vs cash.. how are you finding it ? Heading there in 3 weeks and keep seeing various comments with UK visa cards and Norway being semi cashless. Any advice appreciated 👍🏻

What did the camper cost?
