Very thorough comparison, I really enjoyed watchting the video - shame that Fjord Line no longer run between Newcastle and Bergen, I used to really enjoy taking the mini-cruise to Bergen...my only experience on Color Line was between Kiel and Oslo.....absolutely superb, but expensive. Looks as though you have some interesting videos, just subscribed and looking forward to watching them.
Thanks for kind comment! I am always thrilled to hear that people like my videos, it means a lot! 😄It's indeed a shame there's no longer a ferry service from Norway to UK. It would be great for my travels to London, Scotland and other british destinations. Would be fantastic with a ferry operating from Bergen, Stavanger or Kristiansand to Newcastle or Edinburgh. So one can hope. But thanks again! ☺⛴
The buses are not free I'm aware. Says 40 DKK (adults) and 30 DKK (children) on their website. The price isn't too bad, but I think it should be free. Also, the boarding and disembarkation process in Kristiansand let down the experience a little bit for me - it's far more easy and accesible traveling with Color Line. In Hirtshals, the short walking distance to the city centre with Color Line makes it very effiecient and easy. On Fjord Line, you either have to pay and take a bus (which can be interesting with larger groups and/or much luggage), or you have to walk like 40 mins to Emmersbæk station, or 50 mins to the city centre. So, yeah, I stand with my view to give CL a point there. But thanks for reaching out! 😄
A bit unfair that Fjord Line got a point for having cabins, Superspeed 1 was made for the Kristiansand-Hirtshals route while Bergensfjord was made for longer routes. But hey, its my rating not yours. (i love your content!)
Thanks for comment! I see your point. But I feel Superspeed should have been built with some simple cabins for other travelers too. It's a great way for some private space, and as I mentioned in the video, to get some sleep and/or have a shower. And since Fjord Line provides the offer to have a cabin, it can make the journey a lot better for someone. Nice to hear you enjoy my content! I appreciate it! 🤩

Its sad that there is no ferry service between Norway and UK at all.

Bergensfjord is so much more comfortable in rough sea.
