Preparing your trip to Lillehammer: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. Lillehammer does not have its own airport so the easiest way to get here is through Oslo. The capital is connected to the city by regular rail and bus services.
2. The main form of public transport in the city is the bus. It'd be a good idea for active tourists to rent a car so that they can easily reach entertainment centers and attractions located in the vicinity.
3. Thrifty tourists should take into account that taxi services are quite expensive. Even if the trip lasts no more than five minutes, you will have to pay about 20 euros.
4. Lillehammer's main railway station can be found in the city center. Every day, trains depart from here to surrounding towns. The station offers a great tourist center.
6. Tourists who are planning to visit Lillehammer in summer should take into account that the summer months are the rainiest. However, long rains are rare so shouldn't affect your plans for vacation.
7. To observe the rules of local etiquette, one should refrain from being too emotional in public. It is not customary here to talk and laugh loudly, as well as use gestures excessively.

14. Those who wish to go fishing on the lake must purchase a special license, as well as pay a fee. All necessary documents can be issued in one of the tourist centers.
