With more recent and higher guest reviews than any of their competitors, this local supplier shows that no one can rest on their laurels. Book an excursion and experience supreme Norwegian quality by guides originating from the Fjords they travel in.

Summer travelers are in for the absolute best time to enjoy the tranquillity of this full day excursion to the Sognefjord. Appointed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, The Nærøyfjord is now drenched in colors and snow-capped mountains above enhance the calmness on the mirroring Fjord beneath. It is literally a postcard wonderland. Don't forget your camera, as the Instagram moments appear like pearls on a line.

Notice: This local supplier employs only born and bred Norwegian Guides and is not utilizing low cost seasonal Guides originating in East Europe. This means you will have actual insight from the Guide and not merely memorized Wikipedia articles in a prescripted commentary ;-)

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf, Bergen 5003 Norway

Enjoy convenient pickup from your Bergen hotel at 7:45 a.m. Meet your dedicated tour guide and feel free to share any interests or preferences; your itinerary is flexible and this private tour ensures personalized attention. Hit the E16 road in your private vehicle, traveling by the famous Dale of Norway sweater factory in the village of Dale, then through the town of Voss.

Make a brief stop at the Tvindefossen waterfall for photos, take a deep breath of mountain air to smell the clean, pristine waters. Continue your trip to the Stalheim Hotel to visit its well-known terrace, which opens up to fantastic views over the Nærøydalen Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Back in your vehicle, descend the dramatically steep Stalheimskleiva Road to the valley's floor, where you will visit the ancient village of Gudvangen. (notice Stalheimskleiva is closed between Oct 1'st and April 1'st)

Depart from Gudvangen on a cruise (additional cost) to Flåm, exploring the area around the Aulandsfjord and Nærøyfjord.

Choose between an RIB, a motor yacht and a passenger ferry for your cruise. Upon arrival at Flåm, enjoy lunch in a local restaurant (own expense), then enjoy free time to browse the souvenir shops, the museum of Flåmsbana railway or the local microbrewery at your leisure.

After lunch, get back in the car and head towards the scenic Stegastein viewing point, a 30-meter long platform hanging over Aurlandsfjord at 650 meters above sea level. The narrow road and the viewing point will give you some breathtaking pictures and vivid emotions (not visited between Oct 1 st and April 1 st due to snow). Board the Flåmsbana railway from Flåm to the mountain railway station Myrdal, located 2,844 feet (867m) above sea level. During the scenic journey, have your camera ready for views of canyons, mountainsides and waterfalls. Make a brief stop at the gushing Kjøsfossen waterfall. Change trains at Myrdal to head back to Voss; upon arrival you can tour a medieval church dating from 1277 and an 11th-century stone cross. Lastly, take the 1.5-hour return journey by car to your hotel in Bergen to conclude your tour.
