I was looking at the prices for the stretch between Oslo and Bergen. The train ticket costs (miniprix) 249, but I would like to know the currency. Is it 249 Norwegian crowns or Euros?

Does anyone know what's the currency quoted?

Thanks!

Norwegian Krone. 1 NOK = 0.13 Euro. So 249 NOK = 34 Euro.

C'monn dude, are you joking????? I know, that Norway maybe is the most expensive countrie in the world, but for 249 Euros you can fly to Madagaskar or Argentina, so could it be so much between two cities in Norway???

Many thanks for your reply Fluffy!!

I assumed that it was NWK, but the fact that I was using the international site made wonder.

The prices on the NSB website are given in kroners ( the currency of Norway). One Kroner is about 7,5 Euros and 5,5 Dollars (the exchange rate may vary).

#4, your conversions are backwards. 1 Krone = 0.13 Euro or $0.17. However, 1 Euro = 7.5 NOK and US$1 = 5.75 NOK.
