“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”

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…”

I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants a private tour!!”
