I travelled from Stockholm to Oslo on the SJ 623, and the journey surprised me in a very positive way. The train left Stockholm on time at 07:37 as stated and arrived in Oslo on time at 13:10. But it wasn't just the punctuality that I found great, but also the staff on board, as they were all very friendly and always had a smile on their faces. The train was also well equipped, with power sockets, good wifi, and there was also a bistro on board with plenty of food and drinks to choose from. All in all, I really enjoyed the journey.

The train journey with the SJ 132 from Stockholm to Oslo was a direct connection with a journey time of 8 hours and 30 minutes. The journey was okay, but not particularly impressive. The train was on time, but the comfort was average and the service left a lot to be desired. The wifi was unstable, which made the journey less pleasant. There was an on-board bistro, but it was rather average. Overall a solid journey, but there is definitely room for improvement.

Norwegian krone (kr)

Oslo is pricier than most European cities, with high hotel, dining and alcohol costs. Public transport is efficient but not cheap, so daily tourist spending adds up quickly.

Average meal costs

Budget: kr 120-180 for fast food or a simple lunch.
Mid-range: kr 250-450 per person for a restaurant meal.
Fine dining: kr 900+ per person for upscale restaurants.
Coffee: kr 40-55 for a cappuccino.

Tipping culture

Tipping is not expected. In restaurants, rounding up or leaving 5-10% for excellent service is enough. Taxis can be rounded up, and cafés usually do not require tips.
