The fjords were absolutely incredible! There were multiple stops with switching transportation but it was pretty simple and self explanatory. Each journey was equally incredible!

Joseph P, Sep 2017
The actual trip was amazing with beautiful scenery and great views . The directions that we had to follow were very confusing and there were not many people to help us out and help find the right train,bus,boat and the train again. The time given between the bus and the boat was not adequate to really use the bathroom facilities and still have time to get food from the restaurant . This was especially true for the women . The lines to use the facilities was very long . The facilities seemed somewhat inadequate to handle the large number of people on the tour plus the other people that were there.

Dean M, Sep 2017
We took the tour from Bergen to Oslo. It was scenic and beautiful but after we got off the Flam railway we had to wait 1 hour for our train to Oslo. The train to Oslo was 4.5 hours long and the last couple of hours were in the dark. It was a very long day 14 hrs. Also, our tour package was an envelope with tickets and printed confirmations mixed together. The tour guides were a little frustrated with this when we had to pull our tickets out. The other tour companies issued neat booklets that seemed much more efficient.
