Norway Car Hire

[FarmerJim]

We are off to the Lofoten Islands in late July / early August. I know everything in Norway is expensive, but have you seen the price of car hire over there?!?

Does anyone know of any way to get something at a reasonable price over there, while avoiding dodgy back street outfits? Flying in and out of
Harstad/Narvik Airport, Evenes.

Hire car?

Just wait until you get the bill for a beer

Got out of the wrong side of bed this morning, Jag?

FWIW, I'm not actually a farmer. This is just a nick name from decades ago (long story), which has stuck among a circle of friends I have.

A couple of years ago we saved quite a bit by booking with Budget on the Norweigen site rather than than the UK / international site. Still expensive but a worthwhile saving.
Helped that my wife speaks Norweigen but you could probably manage by using a trasnlation app.

Thanks for this. I shall give it a try.
