Everything worked great with GetYourGuide, but it was difficult with the actual organizer. We only received all the information very late, which was a bit exhausting for us in the planning (16 hours before the start of the trip). The trip itself was very nice! Unfortunately we were not able to do the full cruise due to weather conditions but a replacement was arranged. We liked the Flam Railway best, followed by the shortened boat trip. It is a long journey and we would recommend taking plenty of provisions with you. Since we traveled in winter, a cafe/restaurants were closed.

The pickup is punctual and the driver give us some inside about Norway. It’s great pleasure to meet up with nice tour guide Paul and Po (hopefully I spell the name correctly). It’s great trip throughout the whole journey for this private trip especially when you’re traveling with family and dragging with luggages. Overall great experience.

This trip is wonderful, because we could see Norwegian landscape in full. Whether it was from car or from the ship. We have also opportunity to taste goat cheese and goat salami. Frode was excellent guide. He knows a lot about every part of our way. We spent wonderful 11 hours with him. We recommend this trip to every one.

Der Ausflug ist toll gewesen. Wir sitzen noch gerade im Zug Richrung Bergen. Wir haben wirklich viel Spaß gehabt.

Agnis was amazing. He was very accommodating and even took me to see two stave churches.
