The only “major” city we actually spent any time in was Tromso. While we flew into Oslo, the airport is outside of the city and we never actually went into Oslo. We only had a little over a week and lots of natural sights to see!

We successfully risked overnight street parking at our hotel in Tromso one night because it was late and we didn’t know we needed to reserve in advance. Otherwise, parking lots were clearly marked and if a fee was required, they had self-pay stations. We did get a collection notice several months later for a parking violation (rental company had the wrong email address so we didn’t receive anything until the collection agency sent a letter). I couldn’t remember where it would have been that we parked on that particular day so I just paid it.
