Best way to Experience the Fjords for the first time. - No better way to be introduced to the Fjords than a ferry from Bergan to Flam. Made a number of quick stops which added to the experience. Ship was modern and ample. Crew knowlegable and friendly. Took off and arrived basically right on time. It wasn't so overcrowded that we felt cramped. Plenty of time and room for photos.

Beautiful route, pleasant boat ride - It was varied and beatifull throughout. Small islands outside bergen then great entrance to sognefjord and great the last hour with steep mountains along the water. Flåm very pretty although too full of turusts due to huge cruise ship anchored for the day

Amazing IF it’s you’re first time seeing the fjords - We arrived at the ferry port 10-15 minutes before departure. Every single window seat was already taken. So if you’re planning on not being on deck for the majority of the journey, get there earlier for the best views. It’s also worth baring in mind that this is a taxi/tour hybrid boat. So you stop off a bunch of times at different ports, but it’s very quick change over times. I’m talking literally minutes to get on and off the boat. The journey to flam is 5 hours long, and it only really starts to get impressive half-way in, but when it gets impressive it gets really impressive. The boat will begin to slow down and you’ll get up close to waterfalls and steep fjords. Flam is as impressive as the stories say, if you like views and hiking. I wouldn’t recommend getting the ferry back though. We opted to stay longer in flam and get a bus/train back to Bergen which took half the time, coupled with more impressive views. Plenty of food and drink on board. Overall I’d say it’s worth the money if you haven’t seen the fjords at their most epic before.

First cruise - Made first Tiara Coast cruise on Norwegian fjords. Unfortunately due to bad weather the program has been disrupted, with alternatives nn valid in my opinion. Apart from that Bergen and the very interesting Flam Fjord, x the cruise I gave only three stars because x me is a type of holiday too static and devoid of attractions. Overall enough, only positive note I spend x Costa staff really efficient and always with a smile, very good guys to you I bow. X the rest ship to renew and revise the programs especially in the evening very little choice. Norway... well nothing to add except that I will definitely return x the third time.

Preferred Hardanger tour boat with Linda - This was okay, the fjord is glorious. But very little interaction with provider or information about what we were seeing. Hardanger Fjord trip was better.

Waste of a day - The tour was no tour at all it was a nice fjord however this is described as a tour- it was not- it was basically a ferry to flam which took 5:30 hours to get to- not stops along the way Then we only had 1.5 hours in flam which didn’t give any time to do anything as even the hike was 1.5 hours. We had to get back on the ferry to Bergen and another 5:30 hours to go back It would have been much better to do a one way and spend a day in flam and then returned next day or the train back if it was deceived properly- a huge waste of a day.

Scam tour operator - What tour??? We showed. They didn't. It seems this tour operator is notorious for this and Norway's Best won't even do business with them, but for some reason Viatour does. And STILL WAITING FOR A REFUND

Run wow a turn - Booked on March 8 this excursion for 10 people that was supposed to take place on July 6th Having been charged my credit card on March 8th On July 4th while we were already in Bergen they send me a message at midnight telling me that the excursion is cancelled for technical reasons I go to the company of Norled boats who tells me that it is not true the excursion is maintained but that in fact wow a tour always buys tickets at the last minute even if you paid in advance. Fortunately we were able to buy tickets directly from Norled for the day after and 40% cheaper Wow a turn are dishonest
