  1. Has anyone been to the West of the Moon Gallery? Just wondering if the prices are reasonable? Would love to get some prints for our home as souveniers.
  2. We have decided to book a spot in the Park and fly, and can always cancel it if we decide to go a different route. Got a code that helped lower the price some and we got a deal on our flights so will offset the cost of parking some.
  3. Thank you. I will do that, see what traffic is like for the same week day and time. Then make our decisions based on that.
  4. Glad to hear it's not quite as bad as they made it out to be and thank you very much for the link.
  5. Thank you for the tip. We live just north of Renfrew, we do have friends in Kanata where we could park and then Uber to the train Station. I will have to look into this option vs parking in Montreal. But not sure if it would make sense for us. Thank you for though.
  6. Has anyone flown from Montreal recently? We are planning to fly to Europe in May and our neighbour said the airport, especially parking is a nightmare lately. While we do plan to reserve our parking ahead of time, he indicated that we may still not get a spot. Any info would be appreciated.
  7. Has anyone used North Cape Tours (which appears to be the public bus?) for a trip to North Cape from Honningsvag. I know a lot use Blue Puffin, but with the number of things we want to do on this cruise and trying to mind our budget a little, I thought this may be a good alternative. TIA
  8. So, we are arriving in Tromso on Monday June 3rd and by crowds, I don't mind seeing others on the trail, I just know some spots do have an over abundance of people that take away from the natural beauty of a spot. Thanks for the information. I will look into the hike you suggested a little more.
  9. We were looking at this as we enjoy more natural surroundings and smaller "crowds". Plus this hike looked like it had some lovely views, but without an overly strenuous hike.
  10. Has anyone done a car rental in Tromso before? I am trying to research it as we would like to do the Brosmetinden Hike and it appears the only option is to rent one at the airport. If anyone has done this or has more info, hoping you can help. Thanks in advance
  11. We are sailing on Royal Caribbean's Jewel of the Seas and yes, we are in love with this itinerary.
  12. My husband will be all over this, thanks for the detailed info
  13. Hello, one of the things we really enjoy when travelling to new countries is trying some of their local cuisine. I have tried researching to see what specific foods would meet that bill for Norway, but other than Brunost and reindeer meat, I am not having much luck. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be appreciated. Or even restaurant suggestions, our itinerary is Geiranger, Molde, Honningsvag, Tromso, Flam, Alesund, Olden, Bergen. TIA
  14. I am assuming you have completed your cruise now, hoping you would share your thoughts on the Bergtatt caves as we are thinking about this for next year. TIA.
  15. Thanks so much for all that info. We are in Olden from 7am - 5pm, so nice to know we should have time to do both, if the weather is nice enough for the Loen Skylift. We are hoping in Flam to do both the railway and the Stegastein viewing platform (I had done a little research already on a few ports) we are there from 8am - 6pm.
  16. Thank you, I do have the Amsterdam to Southampton one and while it wasn't bad, I was hoping for one that is a little more in depth and has more info on Norway itself. I will take a look at the others you suggested, plus Fodors Norway next time I am at the book store. Thank you.
  17. I did do a search for guidebooks and it came up with nothing.
  18. Hello all, We are doing a Norwegian Fjords cruise next summer and I have started research to figure out what we want to do on this once in a lifetime trip. I haven't been able to find a good guidebook, so looking for suggestions on one, or suggestions for any of the ports we are going to, which are; Geiranger, Molde, Honninsvag, Tromso, Flam Alesund, Olden, Bergen. Thanks in advance
  19. I see most 1 way cruises run in April or October and wondering which month is best?
  20. Thank you, I will have to get someone else in our party to try this as this morning my check in on my app wouldn't let me check in myself and I had to do in on my computer. sigh......
  21. Does anyone know if there is a way to check in the other couple in our party so they get the same check in time as us without their passports?
  22. Thank you for the welcome and all the information. I think based on all your info and the other comments, that we will still try Princess and maybe look at something port intensive. That way we have lots to keep us busy each day on and off the ship. Thanks so much for a different perspective.
