Bodo is one of the major town in Norway which connects to the various parts of the Northern Norway by Bus, Ferries, Flights, so you can choose any mode of transport from Bodo and reach the Lofoten Island.
The islands are also connected by bridges and the E10 road.
There are buses running from Narvik so you can reach Narvik and take a bus but the frequency is less or you can rent a car and drive through the Island so plan accordingly.

► Places we explored:
We spent quite a few days in Lofoten and stayed at different places during all that time.
We started our journey in Svolvær, it was our first stay. We stayed there for a night, we walked around the city, tried some local food, chased some northern lights and enjoyed the night.
Svolvær and Leknes are two main towns in all of the Lofoten.
Later in our journey, we travelled to a places:
Leknes
Hamnoy
Sakrisoya
Reine
Ä

► Travelling Tip:
1. Most Scandinavian countries are cashless i.e. it might be difficult to trade with hard cash, so it’s better to have bank cards which will work there at no or minimal transaction fees.
2. As it’s a coastal area and moreover it falls under arctic circle, so weather can change at short notice or no notice at all. So, you should be ready for such changes.
3. Travel insurance is highly recommended if you are travelling to Scandinavian countries.

we were there in November 2022, its been a month but still not getting over it. We landed at Bodo Airport and rent a car, then from ferry to Moskenes. It was something one of its kind trip. I am still amazed how you people managed that Lofoten Trip by Bus. All the drone shots, your description, video graphy were amazing. Lots of Love from Pakistan

Well I guess the question was answered in the first second of the video 😂😂

[psychomantis]

What were your dates of travel during the winter please?

[chandranimaiti]

Hi. Can you share dates of your travel.

[philipthomas]

Awesome video guys! I'm going in a few weeks (end of December) - how long does it take by bus from Svolvaer to Reine and are the buses reliable?

Also (and I really hate to ask this but it's the price I pay to be out here) how is the wifi quality in the town?

Lastly are the hiking trails open / safe even during winter?
