From Bergen: Flam Full-Day Cruise to Sognefjord

2.Flam Full-Day Cruise to Sognefjord

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 261 reviews · from $162

Travel from Bergen to Flåm by Norled boat through Sognefjord, passing coastal villages, waterfalls, and steep mountain walls. You can choose one-way or round-trip travel and get free time in Flåm, but the return option leaves little time for the Flåm Railway.

“The activity was very good, really beautiful scenery, if the weather is nice and the sun is out the whole experience is better. It is a very long trip though as you are on the boat for hours , around 4.5 hours without a stop and then you get to Flam which looks great. I will recommend to stay on the deck if the weather is permits you to do so, and also booking the train from Flam for the way back to Bergen as this will allow you to experience different sceneries.”

“Wonderful tour through the history of the Norse. Our guide Olof was incredibly prepared even to the toughest questions and told us about history, habits and traditions of the local people from the past. The car travel was incredibly funny with Bianca! I absolutely recommend this tour to discover a part of history that influenced so much European culture. Thank you Olof and Bianca, Grazie from Italy!”

Bergen: Self-Guided Round-Trip Full-Day Excursion

4.Self-Guided Round-Trip Full-Day Excursion

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 158 reviews · 10 hours · from $493

You’ll connect Bergen Railway, bus, premium fjord boat, and Flåm Railway in one long day. Expect clear emailed instructions, no guide, and superb views of Aurlandsfjord and Nærøyfjord. Bring food, rain gear, and a charged phone because connections are timed and the day can stretch beyond 10 hours.

“Transport arrangements were clear and we had no issues with getting on the various buses, trains and boat. We experienced sights we would not have seen otherwise, and thoroughly enjoyed the trip from start to finish. Expect some stops along the way that really enhance the day! Highly recommended, and although it may seem pricey, believe me, it was worth every penny.”

“Highlights of Copenhagen immersed us with history, culture, food, pasties and more. Our guide, Grazi, is ***** (5 stars) and helped us make our way from a chaotic cruise terminal with no taxis into the city, greeted us warmly and took us on a wonderful journey exploring the city. We had a traditional Danish lunch at a wonderful restaurant and when it was time to taste pastries, she brought over two trays that could have fed 10 people. We loved Copenhagen and sites. This is a must do tour. If I could have added one thing (which would have required time we didn't have), it would have been to tour…”

The weather was beautiful, the food delightful, the conversation informative, the islands spectacular. We absolutely loved sailing with them. It was the highlight of our 5 week trip to Scandinavia. A memory that will remain with us. John and Linda i”

“The weather was very nice, the scene is beautiful. We have done a total 10km kayaking with enough time to sun bathing and swimming. The water is super clean and clear, we could see the bottom of the water. Viktor is a very nice guide that he prepared lots of food and drinks for us during the trip. He also cares a lot about whether we enjoy the trip and adjust the trip. Overall, I enjoyed the kayaking experience a lot.”

Full Day Viking Tour with Fika Swedish Coffee Break

11.Full Day Viking Tour with Fika Swedish Coffee Break

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 81 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $241

Join guide Urban in a small van for a 10-hour journey through Sweden’s Viking and medieval past. See runestones, burial mounds, old churches, Sigtuna, and Uppsala Cathedral, with a Swedish fika at Granby Farm. Pickup may be available, and the group can reach 17 people.

“Regardless of the expense, this excursion delivered low value. The guide's description delivery was exceedingly verbose about much that was uninspiring to the point that some of the travellers completely ignored him. He droned on about picayune subjects and gave little of entertaining value. What I would deem of greater interest was sloughed off with little explanation and time allotted, e.g. burial mounds etc. Whereas, an inordinate amount of time was given explaining the intricate details of each and every rune that we saw. Sigtuna and Uppsala should have been allotted far more time and less on the runes. The speaker system within the small van was very poor. And,…”

“This was an incredible day and a great way to see more of Norway! It was an incredibly long day though so something to be prepared for. Also the food options along the way were not great depending on what you like so definitely recommend eating a hefty breakfast and bringing substantial snacks like trail mix to hold you over throughout the long day.”
