Read the practical information below
Join a spectacular fjord cruise and experience the beautiful nature of western Norway, including deep fjords, steep mountains, and gushing waterfalls.
Sailing out from the city centre gives us a great view of Bryggen in Bergen, which is on UNESCO’s world heritage list. From there, we sail through magnificent scenery in the Osterfjord towards Modalen, Norway’s second smallest municipality. The crew takes us safely through powerful currents of the shallow and narrow Mostraumen straits. The further into the fjord we venture, the steeper and more powerful the mountain landscape becomes, and we pass several waterfalls along the way.
The captain steers the boat so close to one of these waterfalls that you risk feeling its refreshing mist! The beautiful fjord landscape is rich in bird and animal life, and, with a little luck, we might see seals sunbathing on the rocky shore or even eagles soaring over us.
Our comfortable, modern boats are large and spacious, with plenty of space both outside and inside. The kiosk on board offers fresh and tempting baked goods from our local bakery, snacks and cold/hot drinks (excluded).
