Editorial Summary

Reuben and Rebecca document their budget-friendly trip to Flam, Norway, after traveling from Oslo to Myrdal. They experience the Flåmsbana railway, a scenic one-hour train ride that descends from 3,000 feet to sea level. The creators compare the convenience of the Norway in a Nutshell package tour to their decision to plan a customized itinerary, which allowed them to save money and stay longer in the area. Their visit includes a fjord cruise on an electric ferry, where they suggest taking the final cruise of the day to avoid large crowds. They also describe staying in a hotel with views of the fjord and experiencing a sauna with a view that leads into the cold water. The trip features more adventurous activities, such as a zip line and a bike ride through the mountains. They conclude that while the area is a major tourist destination, planning a custom trip allows for a deeper experience of the waterfalls and scenery without the constraints of standard tour packages.
