Vibrant landscapes and beautiful waterfalls.

Published on Oct, 2024

Tour was great!! Very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Thomas shared history and interesting facts about the places we visited and Norwegian culture. The waterfalls were beautiful!! The ferry across the Fjord was stunning with spectacular views and richness of the landscapes. The drive through the old roads surrounded by fruit trees was a nice added touch. Overall a great day!!

A FABULOUS EXPERIENCE!

Published on Jul, 2024

Such a fantastic day! We not only got to see the fjords, but also gorgeous waterfalls up close, walking around them (!), driving through beautiful mountain landscapes and villages, a delicious lunch, coffee and Norwegian pancakes & jam made just for us in a beautiful hotel built in 1722! We saw & experienced so much more than just a fjord cruise!!! And our guide, Thomas, was wonderful! He was so informative and personable! It was just the best day! Our group would highly recommend this tour!!!
