On Monday we visited the tourist information shop, and when we asked for a suitable thing to do, as all of us were not fit and able, the lady suggested the “Kirkenes and Borderland sightseeing with a local guide.
The driver, Greg, picked us up from our hotel after lunch .
We drove around the “city” first, and stopped in various locations, where he gave us excellent information on the history of Kirkenes. We then proceeded to two vantage points with great views.
Next we went to the old Russian border crossing, which was very interesting.Following that was the current crossing.
At all times Greg was pointing out and informing us of various things.
There is , as I write, still respect between the Russians and Norwegians in this area of North Norway.
We returned to the hotel a couple of hours later, seeing reindeer on the way back by the roadside.!
Thank you Greg for such an interesting two hours, sharing personal and local information.
