Can I use my bank, credit or debit card in Norway?

Do remember to verify any charges that your UK bank might apply.

Pro tip: Notify your bank about your trip to Norway to guarantee hassle-free usage of your bank card.

How much cash should I take to Norway? 

Travelling in Norway might require a higher budget compared to other places. 

You might budget ~900 NOK/day (£65–£70) for food, local transport and a few attractions, excluding accommodation.

Is life expensive in Norway?

Norway is renowned for its somewhat elevated cost of living. Yet, the high quality of products and services often justifies these prices.

For instance, a standard cup of coffee may cost about 40 NOK, equivalent to roughly £2.40. Dining at a mid-range restaurant might set you back around 300 NOK, or about £19.
Cities in Norway tend to be more expensive than smaller towns or rural areas.

The unique and enriching experiences Norway provides often outweigh the expense, ensuring value for every krone spent.

Do you tip in Norway?

While tipping is not widespread in Norway, it is appreciated for exceptional service. There’s no obligation to tip, but it’s a nice gesture for standout service.
