“To begin with Mr Thomas (guide with whom we started the tour from Bergen) was punctual, gave a detailed description of all the important attractions in Bergen as well as all those on route to Gudvangen , answered all our queries and saw to it that we boarded ferry at Gudvangen safely and in time. This trip is amazing and has it all. If I had only one day in Bergen , I would do this. Cruise in Naeroyfjord as well as train journey from Flåm back to Bergen was simply breathtakingly spectacular. Worth the money”
