The trip is amazing. Awesome views and unique experience to sail over the fjords and see the glacier very close. The tour guy (Sonny) is very nice and was with us explaining everything, along with the rest of the crew (Tom the captain). Be aware that the first boat (from Bergen) is not part of the tour (to be clear, it is included) so you only need to be careful in which stop you need to get off (Balestrand).

La excursión en líneas generales estuvo bastante bien. Los paisajes impresionantes. Destacar la amabilidad de Tom (conductor del autobús). No podemos decir lo mismo de Suni, asistente de la tripulación del barco, quién nos discriminó durante todo el recorrido en barco ya que se dedicaba a ofrecer comida y bebida a otros pasajeros, saltándose siempre los asientos en los que nos encontrábamos mi familia y yo, por algún motivo tiene un problema con los españoles. A parte cuando fuimos a comprar comida y bebida nos dijo que nos esperásemos 10 min que tenía cosas que hacer, sin embargo, a su vuelta no nos preocupó en saber que era lo que queríamos. ---- The trip in general was quite good. The landscapes were amazing. Highlight the kindness of Tom (bus driver). We cannot say the same about Suni, assistant to the boat crew, who discriminated us throughout the entire boat trip since he was dedicated to offering food and drink to other passengers, always skipping the seats where my family and I were. For some reason he has a problem with Spanish people. Besides, when we went to order food and drinks he told us to wait 10 minutes because he had things to do, however, upon his return he didn't bother us to know what we wanted.

This tour was supposed to be the highlight of our trip to Bergen but IT WAS CANCELLED RIGHT BEFORE!! We weren’t able to switch to anything else at the last second. My whole family was so disappointed! And, to top it off, no sign of a refund as yet!! So infuriating!!

An experience to remember. And i am actually from Norway too, but it was still great, even if i am a local and live only a few hours away. This trip is packed with things to see and do all the time. Its a full day trip, so dont plan anything else this day. You will experience the Fjord scenery from the bus drive from Bergen, mountain crossing at Vikafjellet, and stunning fjords during the boat trip from Vik. You will have stops at waterfalls, san old stave church, the glacier museum and of course - the Boyabreen glacier in fjærland. The guides and crew were really friendly and had tons of local knowledge. Everything was well organized without any waiting or wondering what to do. If you are looking for a full day experience with lots of different attractions included, this is the trip to jump on to. Its quite cheap as well, considering this is paying for your full day of fun - including bus both ways, guides, all tickets to enter everything, and boat with crew. The only thing you would need to buy is food.

We boarded our a gorgeous old classic boat to take us on a genuinely beautiful trip through some amazing Fjords and onto the Glacier Museum and the incredible Glacier. The whole trip was very well organised and very friendly. All the staff were very polite, helpful and informative. If you’re thinking about booking this trip, don’t hesitate, just book it! Thanks again for a lovely day out!

The authenticity of our tour guides made the trip special. Our tour guides told stories of their families and friends living in the areas we visited. We went to many places that were impossible to get to without a car on our visit to Bergen like the glacier, Fjaerland and the stave church. I did not feel rushed anywhere we went. They know how much time to spend at each place. I would have liked more unscripted stories from our guides. That was the best stuff!

They ditched me! I got to the pick up spot a half an hour early. No one came to pick us up at the scheduled time. I started frantically calling trying to figure out what was going on. Very hard to get in touch with. Finally they said there was a hold up and they were on their way. Waited another half hour, no one came. Then they said the driver was sick, then they said the driver went to the wrong spot and picked up the wrong people (didn't check tickets I guess?) But now my tour was canceled. I'm crushed. I waited and saved for a year for this trip, and this was the biggest part.
