      I am planning a road trip from Lithuania to Nordkapp next year at summer-autumn with my 1987 BMW e28 5series. I was working in Norway for a coupe of years, and I regret, for not traveling more at that time. so I am planning to come here for a road trip, to see more of that amazing Norway :) These series is perfect for planning my route.Good luck guys!

    You both reinforce what I've already thought about Norway and Norwegians. Norwegians are just super cool (like you two) and Norway is just gorgeous, second to only Switzerland and that's only by a little bit. The friendliness of the Norwegian people, makes Norway my destination goal.

    Thank you for the trip. Nice to see in this strange times.
    The view at 10:18 is at place called Byrkjelo. North western part of western Norway. The lake is called Bergeimsvatnet and the tall peak in the background is Eggenipa. 1339 meters above sea level.
    My Gf is from this place and I have been there many times the last 20 years.
    I have been on the top of Mount Eggenipa at least 6 times. Speldid view.
    The green color on the water is due to this is water from a glacier.
    Green but very cold, refreshing.

    Wonderful video of a beautiful country, my favourite holiday destination that unfortunately I couldn't visit this year because of Corona...And, by the way, your car is neat (I used to have three T3 in a row for 21 years). Thx from another subscriber!

    Hvilken forum har dere brukt til å få så mye hjelp på veien når bilen har streiket? Jeg og damen skal også reise i nord med en gammel Volkswagen T3 i sommer. Vist du har noen tips på fine steder vi burde se så hadde det vært supert

      Thank you very much! :) It depends on where you go, the most popular sites is often busy, but because of COVID, it was less tourists this year than usual. But if you're into things shown in this video, you'll likely keep clear of the biggest tourist groups :)

      Agreed - I guess that's tilt-shift photography with a UAV? Just did a long coastal fjord trip in my own T3, and now think Norwegian scenery might well rival or even surpass that of British Columbia.

    After a couple of years of this I think it’s hard to say which of Explorer Buddies or you guys have the best production. I have a T3 so I really like your style though my Westy doesn’t have the amount of work and design you’ve done. Keep up the good work.
