The viewpoint is just breathtaking if you are lucky enough to go on a good weather day. We had fantastic weather and went very early on in tourist season so had the viewpoint all to ourselves. The waterfall was fantastic and we enjoyed getting a light lunch in Flåm bakery. Something to bear in mind is if you specifically want to see waterfalls and/or get out of the vehicle to do some physical exploring such as rambling, hiking or paddling, be sure to flag this significantly with the driver as otherwise it is not suggested. Our driver started off very quiet but after he noticed our enthusiasm he quickly became helpful, informative and adventurous. Cannot recommend getting this private tour over a group tour highly enough - the driver was very accommodating to our particular interests and adventurous appetite. The vehicle was extremely comfortable.

Wonderful trip. Drone videos and road viedos that we bought extra will be a great memento for the future.

Trip is very long, no stops on the way except of toilet breaks we passed so many beautiful places, no commenting, it's not worth the money you pay. As train and fiord cruise wasn't included in this experience we didn't understand the Flam visit, there were more beautiful places on the way. Most of the time we spent in a car traveling, It's far too expensive for what you get.

Do not miss it. Such a wonderful trip, and knowledgeable, considerate guide. I loved it. The view in Stegastein is breath-taking, and Flam is an amazing little village. Try the bakery for your lunch there. I bought the viking village option, and I that was a great idea. For a while you would be in the viking era. And the drone video+images which I bought in addition was a great idea. Little bit expensive perhaps, but it is an expensive drone too. Anyway, it was totally worth it. Viator should allow uploading videos and HD images.
Do not miss this trip when you are vising Bergen!

We booked the Stegastein and Flam tour and had a great experience. We could not have asked for a better guide. Juba was an excellent guide and took wonderful care of us. I highly recommend this tour. It’s engaging, informative, and very enjoyable. Would give 6 stars if they let me.

An exceptional private tour! Obaid, my tour guide, was outstanding - his English was impeccable, driving sure and confident and knowledge of the area unparalleled. One of the best local guides I have had the privilege of interacting with.
He connected with me via WhatsApp. on the morning of the tour and picked me up at my hotel on schedule. Obaid was very accommodating and personalized our tour to make it accessible for my visual impairment.
The drive to Stegastein, nearly 3 hours, was spectacular, through mountain roads with unique vistas, snowy fields and immaculately maintained tunnels.
Stegastein was a wonder! What a view from the outcropping observation deck that overlooked one of the most amazing views I have ever encountered in my many travels.
About 30 minutes later, we were at Flam, a picturesque village with cute shops and great views is a must-do in the area. In the chilly winter afternoon, the warmth and comfort of the local restaurant was a welcome break.
After a delicious lunch of grilled salmon and roasted veggies, we were headed back to Bergen. The drive was smooth and conversation flowed well. Obaid, an edited and interesting young man, was a globe-trotter and shared fun stories of the many countries and places he and his wife had visited. The time zipped by and we were back in Bergen, about 9 hours after we had started.
5 stars doesn’t even come close to the quality of this tour, it was above and beyond that!

Rain was forecasted, yet we chose to try our luck. And it turned out to be great! We were lucky and rain was interrupted for a long period of time and we enjoyed wonderful views. Memoriable! The driver kindly stopped at the Tvinde waterfall. Loved it!

Jubayer, who was a considerate guide, made us feel comfortable in face of poor weather throughout the 8-hour trip.
It had been raining for weeks in Bergen and nearby areas ….
Though there being no blue sky that we unusually expect during travel, we had the chance of seeing things differently. Besides Tvindefossen, a well-known sizable waterfall, there were numerous lengthy white lines dropping from the top or middle of the hills after weeks of heavy rain. These were also waterfalls which gave a wonderful touch-up to the scenic nature.

Even though it was a bit of a rainy day it was a great experience. Our driver was skilled and knew the area well. A spectacular trip.
