You will not regret it! - You have to take this tour! I was a little anxious ahead of time because I planned our trip and really wanted something better than the huge group tour boats, to show my family something unique, and I hoped this would be it - and it was so perfect, better than I even expected. We did the AM half day, and don’t worry, when the instructions say they’ll drive you one hour to the launch site, that’s separate from the overall 3ish hours it says your tour is. We were zooming around on the water until about 1pm and were picked up at 9am. Erik, our wonderful guide who picked us up at our hotel and took us all through the fjords, kept us interested and laughing with history and anecdotes as he stopped at different places in the fjords. He was delightful and made it extra fun. It was just so special to be in a small boat at water level looking up at these massive natural formations around us, just a small group of 4 plus Erik. We barely saw any other boats, just the occasional solo fisherman, and everything was so intensely beautiful. We lucked out with the weather, we all ended up with a little sunburn actually, but he said he’s kept going through rain before too - and honestly I would have found it beautiful and worthwhile even while sitting in the rain. We had a lot of amazing experiences in Norway on our trip, but this pretty much topped all our lists by the end! Erik (and Bjorn) purchase and send you tickets for the train back to Bergen once you arrive at this cute little village where you get dropped off, and the train ride is beautiful too, a little less than an hour back. Overall just a great experience my family is still talking about! Thank you Erik!

Private Fjord tour - Pick up and return to our hotel made the whole activity extremely easy. Captain Bjorn was incredibly knowledgeable and a lot of fun. His knowledge of the area and Norwegian history/culture made the experience that much more special. The Fjords were strikingly beautiful. The smaller boat made for an intimate experience we won’t soon forget. We highly recommend it!

Not to be missed - The absolute highlight of our visit to Scandinavia. Bjorn is chatty, extremely knowledgeable, a good teacher, and fun to spend 3 hours with. Osterfjorden is every bit as stunning as the pictures suggest, and he is able to weave in both general Viking history and specific local stories, so that the environment comes alive. We came away with an entirely new appreciation for the people and natural beauty of Norway.

Wonderful! - Brilliant day out. Parents and four young adult kids. It was perfect for us, a real Norwegian experience! I’d highly recommend. It was interesting, informative, relaxing and the scenery was fabulous. It was really worth the money. (Don’t panic if you’re not getting the details- they will come!) PS Toilets beforehand and one stop along the way if needed.

Highlight of our trip to Norway - We had an amazing trip with Bjorn on the fjords on our trip to Bergen. Our group (two adults, two seniors, and an 11-year old child) really enjoyed not only seeing the amazing nature in the fjords, but also learning more about Norwegian culture, history, and heritage from Bjorn. We were the only people in sight on the tour which made it very relaxing and allowed us to soak in the beautiful nature. The pontoon boat was comfortable and the water suits kept us dry even in the rain. I cannot recommend this tour enough!

Solitude in the Fjords - We did a fjord tour with Bjorn because we wanted to not be with the crowds on a the fjord cruise. Bjorn delivered on the experience where we got to go places the bigger boats could not get to. He was a funny and interesting tour guide that provided information only someone who grew up locally could. Only downside was Bjorn is a smoker. Generally being outside, it wasn’t a big deal but did take away occasionally from the fresh mountain air. Overall, highly recommend if you want a personalized tour with great conversation in a beautiful setting!

First class trip of a lifetime - From the moment the day began with a phone call from Bjorn (the owner) we knew it would be a great experience but it was even better than we expected. We were picked up from our hotel at drive about an hour to get kitted up before joining the rib boat. My son was invited to sit at the front of the boat, as a keen photographer he was very pleased with the shots he got! Bjorn was v entertaining and had lots of stories, local knowledge and we pretty much had the whole fjord to ourselves, apart from a couple of fishermen along the way. He stopped periodically to share views and anecdotes. At the end of the tour we caught a train home to Bergen (he even shared the right side of the train to sit on for best views). This was an experience that none of us will forget. If you’re hesitating about spending the money do not, it’s a one of a kind experience and so lovely to just be a private tour just for us. Thank you from us

Best tour ever!!!! - My daughter (21) and I did this tour this morning. It was such a wonderful experience.Everything is taken care of , so we had a great time! Bjorn, our great host, organized early pick up at our hotel. The zodiac, which is a great boat for the fjords, was only for Bjorn and us, making it very private experience. Bjorn is very very passionate on what he does, so we got many stories about the past of this area, and we followed them very easily. Landscapes are increidble, we have not seen any other boat during the whole tour. The fact that you are at water level during the whole tripnis a big plus!!! Please, do not hesitate, this is the right tour to do while you are at Bergen. It is really worthy to make the extra effort! My daughter was also very happy, so we had a great morning together. Thanks Bjorn, keep doing this tour the way you do it!

Perfect way to spend a day - The fjord boat tour was beautiful, peaceful and informative. We enjoyed the drive to the fjord as well. Getting picked up right at your hotel was so easy. Our guide, Andrea was awesome. We enjoyed his commentary, humor and good natured attitude very much. The train ride back to Bergen was very easy as well. Highly recommend this tour. We pretty much had multiple fjords all to ourselves. Such a treat. Thanks Andrea.

Good tour if I get a partial refund! - This trip was enjoyable, but beware, the weather can change, and disrupt the tour, which happened to us. Tour operator, Bjorn, called day before, pushed back tour from 9am, to 12noon., weather..But there was a tour that went out before us returning to dock as we were leaving, meaning we could have gone on the 9am. What’s with that. Thus caused us to miss the Train ride back to Bergen, which we paid for. So, I need a credit on my Am. Exp., for the cost of Train Ride please! Yes?
