Ferries in Norway - I got your question answered - How, What and When - 2021

[@tshansen]

Svend Nielsen: (from Facebook) On this year's trip to Norway from a couple of other motorcyclists, I was made aware that they had been listed as a car on their fergypay. Therefore, returning home after the trip, I then checked my account and quite rightly, all 12 crossings we were booked as a car, and I have regretted the misunderstanding to autopass and have today received the following answer: Feedback: A little unsure why this has happened. I will correct all the passes and what has been deducted too much will be refunded back to balance. I will forward this so that our developer can investigate and hopefully get it fixed so they will come in with the right rate in the future.

[@kihestad]

I can confirm that the info is correct 😊You forgot one important thing: how to get hold of the famous (and mandatory) 'svele' on board the ferry 😋 A very informative video!!!

[@tshansen]

Hahaha, I don't eat so much Svele anymore. They are not easy to come by here in the south, and I think they killed the recipe when who ever it was took over for MRF 🙈 Glad you liked it mate. Cheers

[@mikamaijala3731]

Thanks Thomas, again, for a very informative video. This will help our planning for next summers trip to southern Norway. We just got back from Nordkapp, no ferries there but proper Norwegian weather, 15ms wind and some rain to spice it up. It was worth getting cold though, you do have the most beautiful country in the world 😎 Luckily we are neighbours so quite easy to sneak in ( well, with 2 vaccines, that is ) and enjoy some of the nice rides there. The only thing you need is more gravel roads 🤔 Cheers, keep the vids coming👍👍

[@tshansen]

Norway has over 120 different ferry routes spread all over the coastline from South to North. There is not much information about the routes, time of crossing or how much everything coast when you arrive the ferry dock even if the law says you responsible to the customer when it comes to give information about this for each route. A app on the phone or trough a webpage is not good enough. I hope this video can answer some of the many questions out there. And if you have any question that I have not covered in this video, please live them in the comments below. Cheers

[@SafeSetting]

What about dogs on the ferry. We are planning to come from Croatia and we hear that 1) dogs can get on ferrys and must stay in the car or campervan, 2) if they are not vaccinated they can't go on the ferry? Who checks that if you know?

[@tshansen]

@@SafeSetting i think this is only the big ferries going from denmark and germany! It is custom who will check if your dog is vaccinated! In land ferries, Small ones you can take the dog up on the sun dekk or leave them in the car! The most certanly don’t check if it’s vaccinated

[@SafeSetting]

@@tshansen that's is great news. Do you know what is the cheapest way for foreners to pay the Øresund Bridge? On Google the prices vary a lot. We have a camper van

[@corkenter3881]

Thank you Thomas for this video with clear explanation. I am planning a motorcycle trip through Norway, but the ferries remained an issue of how things work. Also a golden tip on how to save money. Thank you

[@tshansen]

Glad it was helpful mate. Norway has over 120 different ferry rutes from south to north. So If you ride the coast line it can be a extra cost not everyone is thinking about 👍🏻

[@wop9113]

Awesome. Exactly what I needed since i read that they changed the payment System. Thanks very much for this video

[@tshansen]

You are welcome mate... glad you found it useful and yes they have done some changes to the payment and billing system. Cheers

[@RidetheBean]

Good information 🙂 thanks 😛 This is confusing even for me as a Norwegian 😅

[@tshansen]

Haha, yeah...and when you look at the crew sometimes it is even more confusing 🤣 I'm kinda stunned that there is no info on the ferry dock about the routes, time it takes and cost. Like every other service you pay for in this country you need to show what you are paying for, by law! So yeah, someone has slept in the classroom when it comes to all the ferry's. e

[@thetubelesschannel]

Nice :-) we also recommends the svele dont we ?

[@tshansen]

I'm sad to say that the Svele died with the MRF company. They have never been the same after that, and I just can't recommend them anymore 🤣

[@Kurkess]

Do you ever tie down the motorcycle on the fjord ferries? I did it once on Lysefjorden sailing from Lysebotn to Forsand, but never seen anyone else doing it in Norway. I guess the water is always very still.

[@tshansen]

That is a really good question, how could I miss that in the video? well.... yes and no! A few ferries in Norway travel in "open" sea, and therefor it is vice to tie down your bike. Like the one from Bodø to Moskenes or over the Sognefjord sometimes if the weather is really bad. There is no right or wrong, you just need to feel what is right for you. Like you say, most ferries in Norway are running inland so there is not often need to tie down the bike. Always leve it on the side stand and in first gear when parking on the ferry.

[@nexxmex]

@@tshansen so are there special places on the ferry platform that have the tie down straps? Or are people bringing in their own? I am a bit confused and about to find that out the hard way :D

[@tshansen]

Some of the ferry’s have openings in the deck for strops, but i have to be honest, i have not seen many strops on the ferries? So i would bring my own strop just to be sure

[@Kurkess]

I always bring straps. Never know when they might come in handy. The bikes often get parked in the side of the ferry or up front. When parked on the side I just strapped it to some fixed point on the rails of the ferry with my own strap. But as mentioned probably not necessary in most cases inland.

[@StevenKusterEskes]

Hey Thomas, awesome video. We're going to Norway in little less over a week and this info is gonna save us a lot of money hopefully. I have a small question, do you need the Autopass for ferry card with you? Or is it enough to register it and leave it home and just rely on your license plate? Because I don't think I'll receive the Autopass in time before we leave.

[@tshansen]

Hello Steven... you don't need a autopass chip or ferry card, as long as your deal is finalised online, they will take pictures of your licensplate and it will charge your account automatically. You don't need to show any cards, chip or any thing. Hope that answered your question. 🙏🏻

[@StevenKusterEskes]

@@tshansen It certainly did. Thanks for the quick reply!

[@tshansen]

@@StevenKusterEskes My pleasure mate 🙏🏻

[@motorcycleadventuresNL]

@@tshansen Hi Thomas, great video again! Is the remark regarding the ferry card still valid? The website of Autopass states "When creating a prepayment agreement, you can choose to order an AutoPASS ferry card. To get a discount on ferries that use the ferry card as a payment solution, you must have a ferry card. If you only travel with ferry connections that use a tag as a payment solution, you do not need to order a ferry card." in the FAQ. Confuses me!

[@tshansen]

@@motorcycleadventuresNL Yeah, this confuse me a little as well... I think the autopass deal is stated around cars, not motorcycle. Because I don't have a card or a tag for my bike... it is just connected to my car deal. So every time I ride on a ferry they just take a picture of my licence plate. And this is how they do it on the ferry's with all motorcycles? As far as I know

[@Luca_CRF]

Plan was to go to sweden, but norway looks so cool too🔥 may be I have to reconsider🧐

[@tshansen]

Well, if you promise not to tell my Swedish friends I can let you in on a little secret. Sweden is really nice as well, but different. It depends on what you want most of your trip. Is gravel your thing, Sweden has it all. If scenic, beautiful views and twisty roads your cup of tea.. Norway is your dream destination 🙏🏻

Thank you sir... glad you found it informativ. I see there is so many questions about this area online I had to clear up some of the misconceptions about how the ferry works here in Norway. Cheers 🍻

[@norwaywithpal]

You are a busy guy! I go for a few weeks of vacation and suddenly you've uploaded a whole bunch of new episodes. Anyway, a very helpful video, even for people with cars. Do you usually go in and buy some svele?

[@tshansen]

Welcome back my friend... I was just out shooting some extra stuff today. And now it's up to you. I will send you some details on Facebook if you are still up for it 🙈 No I never go inn and buy Svele anymore. I think the taste of it died when the MRF line was shut down. Not sure who took over, but I don't feel they taste the same anymore 🤭

[@norwaywithpal]

@@tshansen thank you, I'll get back to you on Facebook asap. I can't compare to what the svele used to taste like, but I was not very impressed by the plastic wrap thing I found last time I took a ferry out west

[@glennnyland7047]

I took a couple of ferrys between Odda and Bergen on Saturday, Today Tuesday i went to ferrypay to register my bike and pay full price, but i could only register my bike 2days back. THis would mean Sunday. WIll i get an invoice with the andministration fee now or will they charge my card?

[@tshansen]

Well, i guess the best answer i can give you is contact their helpdesk! I bet they will sort this out for you! Normal invoice takes some time to get out

[@2811610529]

Rigtig god og informativ video 👍 Rigtig smart system med Autopass... Det kunne vi lære noget af i Danmark !!!! Vi er sgu bagud på mange felter i forhold til vores Norske brødre..😁 undtaget i OL-Håndboldt .. 😎 Tak for endnu en god video min ven

[@Advcrazy]

Norled should have paid you with a 3500kr ferry card for making this Thomas!!

[@tshansen]

Hahaha, well… i’m not sure if that will happen, but it is Nice to hear people get some valuable info out of it 🔥👏🏻 cheers bud

[@Braapncamp]

Tanks for the info on how to get discounts Thomas, I had Auto Pass deal on my earlier Motorhome, tihs thru the Danish EasyGo + box for heavy vehicles. Worked at Öresundsbron, Danish Bridges, Austria and som other road tolls around Europe which was great. Nice video!

[@tshansen]

Thank you tjommi... 👏🏻 As far as I know, this whole autoPass deal can be used many places trough Europe but i need to do more research on the subject. Can you connect autopass to other services as well? hmm... this is interesting for people who ride alot around in Europe. Glad you liked it, and I hope it is useful for some of the many tourist that comes to Norway. 👏🏻 Cheers 🍻

[@Braapncamp]

@@tshansen Yes, and when I passed road told in Norway the fee was drawn direct from my connected account. No invoice as it will be if the EasyGo + box is not used. If you have that account and not use the box, the reg number on the plate will be registered and since my EasyGo account is connected to the plate number it works in the same way. Not sure if your box (if you have one) works in other countries, but the Danes are as far as I know those who have made the most functional contracts with other countrys road toll payment systems. Now when I have a lighter vehicle I don't need to use the box anymore (since it was for heavy vehicles) so I'm not sure if the Danish Bropass box for normal vehicles works in the same way.

[@tshansen]

@@Braapncamp This is great info... I know alot of people up here have questions about all the TOLL's down on different freeways in Europe as well, or the different tokens you need to buy. Hmm.... this gives a great idea for a future project. Just need to do allot of research on the subject first.

[@Braapncamp]

@@tshansen we have kearned some while fucktruckin around ☝️😁😂. We also went to the Alps and Mediterranean with caravan and motorcycle for many years, different rules for different vehicles. I like Norways way of doing it, just send an invoice in good time after you are home again. 👌

[@swedishpsychopath8795]

It hurts me as a swede to admit this since swedes and danes has tried to steal Norways thunder for such a long time: But vikings came orginally from Norway. This video proves it beyond any doubt. The fjords FORCED the vikings to make boats to be able to travel inside Norway crossing the hundreds of fjords in Norway. Sweden and Denmark are both without fjords - so there was no need to invent boats there. Your video just made me realize this fact.

[@tshansen]

Hahaha, well! I’m not sure what to answer you mate 🤣

[@tripleien1]

In summer 2020, a Friend and me took 15ferries between bergen and lofoten . Some had to be paid . All of Them scanned our belgian license plates without succes as red figures on a white surface are very difficult to Read with a camera. We never got a Bill to pay. In June 2021, Just about the same. Meanwhile I have another motorcycle and license plate. Curious if a Bill Will arrive

[@tshansen]

Well, I have read online that not everyone has got a invoice for their ferry travels. I guess they don't bother going all in if there is just a small fee to collect. So maybe you are lucky and have a free pass! If so, keep that in mind when you see someone in need of assistance. Good Karma should be passed on to the next 😉👏🏻

[@Terble_Speling]

Hey, thanks for this informative video. I've been watching several videos about Ferries and Tolls in Norway, and I still have a silly question about the line-queuing (before the ferry). I've heard that the line numbers indicate the sequence in which cars board the ferry. (first every car in the 1st lane, then every car in the 2nd lane, etc.) If that's the case, are there any circumstances in which I should NOT queue in the 1st line, other than the line being full? (For example at 0:06; I'll also be traveling with a normal car under 6m.)

[@tshansen]

If the dock is full of cars, you will follow the system like that. And let’s say row 1-3 goes on the ferry and line 4 is left behind, they start filling the ferry with line 4 next, and then 1 again. But in some cases they have own lanes for trucks, lorries and special service cars. so there can be a little bit confusion. if you travel with a car, just follow the rest of the que. My best tip.

Great video, thanks. It's really unclear for non-Norwegian motorcyclists to figure out the requirements for automated payment of tolls and ferry fees. Nice to learn that motorcyclists do not have to pay tolls in Norway, but getting an AutoPass for ferry payments ahead of a trip does not seem possible, at least for Americans with a +1 phone number. AutoPass says they can not send an SMS to a +1 phone number, so one can not register. No answers to repeated e-mails sent via their customer service web page. FerryPay was successful, however, it looks like we will be paying full price for ferry rides!

[@tshansen]

I understand this is not easy for people outside Norway! It is a shame, but keep in mind that on Motorcycle it is really cheap to ride with the ferries, so it’s not that bad to pay full price on two wheels. Cheers

Thanks and great video!

[@tshansen]

Hello DrZman...👏🏻 Walk-ons or pedestrians are always first in line. The let on and off people first. You go on and off the ferry the same way as cars, but because of safety you will go first. if you are in doubt, just reach out to one of the guys waving cars in or out. These ferries normally goes from one dock to another... a to b and back again. If you want to take on of the catamaran you can jump of at some places and on again some days later. You just need to find out when the ferries or boats goes from the dock and you pay for each trip. It is quite easy and great system.

Which ferry company would you recommend for a couple who wants to do what I described above: sleep on the ferry many nights, but get off at a village sometimes and spend a few days on land and catch a subsequent ferry. The ferry company we would use would have to have rooms we can rent and a cafeteria for eating. It's very confusing trying to make sense out of the websites of the companies. We don't want the luxury of a cruise ship, just comfortable sleeping quarters and a place to eat onboard the ferry.

Jeg har det den i stor gruppe på Facebook: facebook.com/groups/motorcykeleventyr/?multi_permalinks=2440114982799925&notif_id=1627890685403257&notif_t=feedback_reaction_generic&ref=notif facebook.com/groups/bmwmcklubdanmark facebook.com/groups/120042047407 facebook.com/groups/120042047407

@@bmwbike Ja, det er synd at mange avstår fra fergene pga dette. Det gir en helt annen insikt i det vestlandske kystlandskapet vårt. Kos deg videre på tur, takk for at du deler og skulle det være noe du lurer på, ikke nøl med å ta kontakt 🙏🏻
