Further Into The ARCTIC CIRCLE (Finland to Norway)

[@RangePisteMies]

Thanks for visiting Finland! Norway has amazing scenerys but its a bit expensive. Hopefully you guys can come back someday to Finland at summer time! Safe journey!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We absolutely loved Finland and can't wait to get back in the summer! Norway is very expensive haha! We are so glad you enjoyed our Finland videos and hope you will enjoy our Norway videos as well :) Thank you so much for watching!!

[@miskahelberg4092]

That exchange between buses in Palojoensuu was much more convenient than I could have expected! I was already afraid of how things would turn out for you. That's wonderful that you managed to get to Tromsø that way, and even cheaper! ☺

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Hahaha we were sooo nervous too!! But glad everything went smoothly! Thanks so much for watching, we are so happy you are enjoying our videos :)

[@phinebrowngirl5467]

Thank u for all the great adventures in Finland. Best of luck and Enjoyment in the Countries to come🙌🏼✨🙌🏼

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Thank YOU for watching all of our adventures! It means so much to us! We loved Finland and can't wait to hopefully get back in the summer! We hope you will enjoy our Norway videos too :)

[@jazzjue]

Wonderful sharing ! Both of you are so so adventurous! Hope to be able to add this beautiful country to my dream vacation list!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

It is such a great place! You will love it. Thanks for watching :)

[@ThisBlondeLife]

Can't wait to see all the stuff from Norway! Glad your bus situation worked out!!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

It is such a gorgeous place!! And us too! Thanks friend!

[@inkak.2010]

Like I've said before, I've absolutely loved your journey in Finland and you guys are in fact the SECOND travel channel that I have ever followed. If you ever come back to Finland during the summer and you stay in Helsinki, I have an actual day trip proposition for you guys, including one of the biggest Finnish national writers and the biggest collection of ice age Giant Kettles in Finland.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yay that makes so us happy. We are so glad to have you here. It means more to us than you know! If we get back during the summer we will definitely let you know! Thanks so much for watching :)

[@PostcardAndAPint]

We really enjoyed this. That food looked amazing. Nice to see some snow! You could almost taste that crisp fresh air through your film. This is bucket list stuff for us! I think you need to attach sleigh runners to your cases! Phew you made your connecting bus!! I love Tromso, I’ve only visited by sea, but did get to see the northern lights there! Nice bijou hotel room! Great video 🍻

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We are missing the snow and northern lights right now!! The food was delicious! We are so happy you enjoyed it :) thanks for watching!

[@oh2mp]

I'm glad that you liked our home country so much. It was not the only thing that you saved money by taking that bus route, you got a new experience too! It's a pity that it was so late that it was dark. That road after you changed the bus has stunning views and the further you go, the more beautiful they get. By the way, Palojoensuu means literally "Burn river's mouth". Finnish place names often have some reference to the terrain around the place :)

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We absolultey LOVE Finland :) We wish it was light so we could have seen the scenery! That is so interesting! Thank you as always for watching! And we hope you will enjoy our future videos as well :)

[@tuspu8255]

Glad you had fun in Finland and hope you have an amazing time in Norway too! Norway is an amazing and beautiful country but one downside is as you already noticed its even more expensive than finland 😅

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We had the best time in Finland and hope to get back there this summer!! And yes, it is soooo expensive hahaha! Thank you for watching and we hope you will continue to enjoy our Norway videos ♥️

[@williamgallop9425]

In Norway you buy food from food shop, beer from beer shop and alcohol from alcohol shop. Or that it was when visited Norway last.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That makes sense! Thanks for the tip!! :)

[@WITYTRAVELS]

Jenny LOVES not being in cities lol. The drama, the salmon, the MUSTARD! Hopefully that was the best BK you ever had!!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes I for sure do hahaha!! It actually was pretty good BK😂 I mean not $35 good, but good lol

[@ttkk6099]

Kilpisjärvi is nice place. Make a stop there if u get back same route

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Unfortunately we are flying out of Tromso but hopefully we can go there in the summer!☀️

[@mikoske]

Funny thing about the bumby roads, also in summer you can clearly see how the road upkeep totally changes after border crossing. I've driven to Norway couple of times from Helsinki with friends, it's a long journey, but good thing about doing it in the summer is you can just set up a tent pretty much anywhere for the night. One time we slept by a river and another time just at a resting place by the road. Same thing in Norway, we have few favorite camp sites on the coast, from the first T-turn, you turned left to Tromso, our usual spot would have been near Skibotn which is right from the T-turn. So if camping is your thing, the Nordic countries have the right to roam which means camping almost anywhere, picking berries and mushroom in the forest etc. There's a wikipedia article on it. Tromso is a cool city, been there just once. I have never eaten in a restaurant in Norway because of the prices! Just fishing, groceries and gas station burgers.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That sounds like a great road trip!! We will have to try it in the summer! And that totally makes sense, we will be buying most of our meals at the grocery store too! Thanks for watching :)

[@jaskajokunen8733]

If you missed bus u still have "survivor" skills. Thanks so much of your compliments of Finland., we appreciate it more than u quess. Have a nice journey to Norway. i will stay on this channel. Kiitos!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Hahaha you are so right! We could make a fire and drink some river water to survive haha!! We love Finland so it is easy :) We are so glad you enjoyed our videos and are so beyond happy you are going to keep watching!!

[@einogustafsson3895]

Is There Any snow? Because it looks There is no. Its always that Tromsso is warmer than north Finland because the sea.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

There was a tiny bit of snow and a lot of slush haha!! It was warmer than Finland too! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@sanyogeetaandhale5586]

Hey Jacob and Jenny, that was a super helpful video! Thank you for making budget friendly travel videos! :) Which month did you guys travel in? Just curious to know, do these buses ply on the route from Rovaniemi to Tromso other than December-March?

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We are so glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching :) I don’t believe they run this same route apart from December to March unfortunately.

[@kimmoahola4528]

Unfortunate that you travel during the polar night time. You did travel thru one of the best scenery between Finland and Norway. Kilpisjärvi- region in Finland and the Lyngen alps in Norway. But it would be a good excuse to visit again during summer time :)

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes we were so sad we couldn't see the scenery!! We will definitely have to try again in the summer! Thanks so much for watching :)

[@Sindhi.Voyager]

Helpful video. Do they have stops like for using toilet and at a restaurant

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We are happy to help! Yes there was one bathroom stop that also had quick food you could grab :)

[@jani_koski]

If you decide to visit Finland in summer I would probably suggest that the best time for that would be in July, for the best chance to have a good weather. I'd say that the real Finnish summer is between June and August, before that it's spring and in September it starts to get colder eventually 😄 I'd recommend to see more of the Southern Finland during summer, since there are so many different sceneries to be viewed. From Southern Finland's cityscape to East with all the lakes (Saimaa) and West/Middle with the large fields and countryside. The scenery does change quite a bit from I'd say upwards of Jyväskylä 😄. Of the temperatures, usually in warm days it's between 20-30 degrees Celsius but nights can be closer to 10. Rainy days lower the temperature so it can be lower but that's considered cold even in here 😄 But a jacket is a good thing to have with you. For me the best temperature is 20-25, anything higher than that is too warm for me to enjoy sports or doing anything physical outside 😅

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That is so good to know!! We want to see all of Finlands lakes and the midnight sun! Thank you for all that wonderful information, it is so helpful :)

[@maddyfernando6007]

Hi there, Great video with lots of information. Did you took bus from Rovanemi? would you mind sharing the route & website for this bus booking please? Thank you

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We took the Onni bus from Rovaniemi to Levi and then the Arctic circle bus from Levi to Tromso :) hope that helps!

[@maddyfernando6007]

@@JacobandJennyTravel Thank you for the replay 🙏. The Arctic circle bus leave from Rovaniemi, any specific reason that you took Onni bus to Levi?

HAHA😂 our editing software malfunctioned and changed our map from Tromso to San Fransisco. That is so funny lol

[@jeetendravarma4750]

Can we travel from Northern Norway (eg: Tromso) to Northern Finland(Eg: rovaniemi) by bus ?

Yes you can. You will just have to transfer a few times. Here is the vide of the bus we took from Rovaniemi to Levi kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4Cton-MnJyfjJY :)

[@citizenkane4831]

The first thing yoo´ll notice in norway is that going out to eat at an restaurang isn´t cheap. And soda like coce or anything else that contains suger is expensive. Norway has an "sugertax". Or having a pizza that´s pretty expensive too. But if you turn your blind eye to that. The mountines, the hikes you can do there and the fjords in norway is wonderfull. And one thing about the norweigian salmon is that it´s farmed. Norwegiena salmon is big business. It´s not the same as wild catched salmon like you can get in Finnland or other scandinavian countries if your lucky. And if you are lucky taste the berrie called cloud berries (hjortron). It is a berrie known as the "forrest gold". I wish you all the best and hope you get to see the best parts of norway like you did in finnland.

[@ImaginarySpace]

I don't think we have any more wild catched salmon than you do in Norway 😂All salmon we have is from Norway and other than that we just have Rainbow Trout available. I think that one is also farmed. You want salmon from nature. You pretty much have to fish it by yourself.

[@mathias61]

Of course you can taste cloud berries in Finland too. They are not Norwegian specialties only, but very common in Finland too! In any case, have a great time in Norway 😀

[@kognak6640]

@@mathias61 Cloudberry grows on bogs and 30% of Finland is bogs. It's indeed very common.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes it is soooo expensive, everyone told us it would be but we were still so shocked to pay so much for Burger King hahaha!! The fjords are so gorgeous and we can't wait to try the salmon! Thanks for all that information and thank you so much for watching :)

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

@mathias61 thank you so much!! I believe we did try cloudberries in Finland! Thank you for watching :)

[@barnalibhattacharjee5640]

This bus travels directly from Rovaniemi to Tromso as I could check from their website, so I’m confused why u had to take two buses. I am planning my trip from Rovaniemi to Tromso and ur reply could help. Thanks❤ from India

[@barnalibhattacharjee5640]

Also whether luggage is included or you had to pat extra for checkin baggage

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

They may have changed the route, but either way the transfer between buses was very simple :) have a great trip!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Baggage is included :)

[@steinarhaugen7617]

It is expensive because people who work in shops and cafes in Norway earn better than in any country in the world. This of course has an impact on the price. Expensive is a relative term. For Norwegians, it is not expensive.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes that totally makes sense! Thank you for watching :)

[@KasperiVonSchrowe]

If you liked Finnish outdoors, Norway is even better. A little rainy, though. But those fells, mountains and fjords... Seafood is among the best in the world. In Tromsø, the wreck of battleship Tirpitz is a must (for me at least).

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We already love the beautiful mountains!! But we do miss the heavy snow in that Finland has! We are going out to find orcas on a fjord cruise and we can't wait to see it!! Thank you for your comment friend :)

Don’t say that to a French that finish mustard is the best: nothing beats the French de Dijon mustard! 😂😂😂

Norway is rich country because of oil so they can afford to pay thos crazy prizes. It's like United Arab Emirates of north. Finland try to give a vibe of rich country but fails because of huge cost of everything even if population is not wealthy and are hanging in threat how to cope

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Wow that is so interesting!! Thanks for that information and thank you for watching :)
