1.Viking Village, Nærøyfjord Cruise & Flåm Railway

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,047 reviews · 10h 30m · from $418Our pick

Review of Bergen’s Viking Village, Nærøyfjord cruise, and Flåm Railway tour, with practical advice on price, timing, scenery, and winter changes.

“Our guide Michael was very accommodating and knowledgeable about every place we went to. He made the trip as fun and informative as possible. Best part was the cruise! The fjords are breathtaking. Viking village was fun as well as the train ride. Even the bus ride was beautiful and our driver Linda was very good as well. It was not crowded so we had enough time for ourselves and room in the bus. I only felt this tour was pricey compared to other tours I saw because this was not my first choice. Probably because of the weather my other bookings were cancelled so I had to go for…”

“Great experience and a full day so the price was more worth it (but still expensive). Thomas was wonderful and I loved his humour, I liked that it was a smaller group too. The Nærøyfjord was stunning and absolutely worth a visit”

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 261 reviews · from $162

Cruise from Bergen through Sognefjord to Flåm, with village stops, mountain views, free time, and practical tips on timing and value.

“It was very interesting. Traveling to Flam ~5.5 hours and back. The stop in Flame was ~ 1.5 hours. For us it was one of central actions in Norway. I think it was reasonable investment time, money and efforts. I am not agree with comments that it is too long. The fiord is sufficient long and it looks different in different directions”

Ride Norway’s Golden Train from Åndalsnes to Bjorli for mountain views, waterfalls, bridges, wartime stories, and practical photo tips.

“Amazing trip. Beautiful scenery and great commentary to go with it. The train had hot and cold drinks and snacks and toilets. The only thing you have to be mindful of is the tour is 2 1/2 hours only even if you get stuck waiting for freight trains to pass through (as we did on two occasions) so your time at the other end off the train may be limited to only 10 minutes as apposed to the 30 advertised. However to be honest the little museum at the end takes only a couple of minutes and there is nothing else around there unless you want to take lots of…”

“I paid EUR 270 for this tour and was provided a voucher only … not an actual ferry ticket which means the ferry company denied my entry. I had to buy a separate ticket directly on the ferry. I’m requesting a refund from VIATOR … this is still in progress.”

“This is an all day experience, be prepared for it! That being said it was so much fun. First of all our driver/tour guide was Alekss and he was fantastic! We asked him to pick us up at 2 different hotels in Oslo, no problem and we also asked to stop at the Borgund Stave Church so we left Oslo at 7:15 so we could be sure to have time to stop. We stop at Circle K for gas-food- bathroom break. Alekss was a superb driver and we were confident to get to all our stops on time. We did not have to worry about our getting tickets for the…”
