With a heavy heart, this is our final blog post about Norway. If you have been following our adventures, surely you have been amazed by the magnificent fjords here and also mesmerized by the stunning Northern Lights ( Aurora Borealis ) here . #Day 6: Tromsø - Oslo, Norway  Next stop – Oslo, the capital of Norway! The cheapest way to get there is by taking the NSB train to Oslo Central Station priced at NOK 93 per way. With approximately 25 minutes of train ride, we arrived at Oslo.

But, we just couldn’t resist their incredible scenery - a stunning fjord view, a breathtaking walk in the village surrounding by fjord, and not forgetting the magnificent northern light ( Aurora Borealis ) which is only available in a few countries around the world.

It is very important to have good accommodation when you are travelling so that you could have a good rest and enjoy your vacation happily. This is why we are always very choosy when it comes to selecting our accommodation no matter where we are travelling to. 

It all started with the dream of waking up to the stunning and spectacular/breathtaking fjord view, crossing the magical Arctic Circle to meet Santa Claus, experiencing Swedish “Fika” culture at a Swedish café and hunting for aurora borealis in the northern region of Norway.
