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.

I travelled from Stockholm to Oslo on the SJ 623. The train left Stockholm Central Station on time at 07:37 and arrived in Oslo S on time at 13:10. I hadn't reserved any seats, but there were still enough free seats available. The seats were very comfortable and the noise level on the train was very pleasant, so it was easy to relax on the journey. There was also a bistro on board with a large selection of food and drinks.

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.

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.
