Despite being in the upper price segment, a majority of guests describe this tour as the highlight of their Norway visit and it is Bergens' most popular private tour because:
1: The knowledgeable skipper: The tour is led by an experienced skipper who provides humorous and informative commentary on the history, culture, and natural environment of the region, adding depth and context to the scenic views.
2: Great for people on a cruise ship: The tour is organized so cruise travelers with a short stay in Bergen get away from the crowds and back in time for departure.
3: The stunning scenery: Previous travelers have praised the incredible views of the well-hidden fjords and shoreline they are taken to during this tour. No swarming bus tourists are to be seen anywhere here!
4: The excitement: Travelers have described the thrill of cruising through the fjords at different speeds, adding extra excitement to the tour in water mostly without waves.

We had read the great reviews before booking our fjord tour with Bjorn, and he absolutely delivered. The van picked us up at our rental on time and our driver shared some great stories about the area and her life growing up nearby. We put on our big neon boat suits (super comfortable and double as life jackets) and got started on our tour. Bjorn grew up in the area, so was intimately familiar with the history of the salmon fishing industry (my favorite part), the local stories about the different farms we could see along the banks of the fjords and a colorful account of his country's oil riches and the sovereign wealth fund. Only downside to this tour is that Bjorn is still struggling with smoking. Thankfully we were outside the whole time, so it wasn't an issue. Without question, this trip was the highlight to our Norway experience!

A must do, we highly recommend! Bjorn fit us in last minute for one of his private fjord tours and it was truly the highlight of our trip. Thanks to the clear directions he provided us with, getting to him and his boat was easy and very fun. The tour itself was incredible, even in the rain! Bjorn was knowledgeable, funny, entertaining and so kind. The views we got to see were breathtaking and we just could not have imagined a more perfect experience. We will remember this for the rest of our lives!!

It was difficult to get this company to respond to our inquiry. We had a good initial call but up to the night before this $400 per person adventure we did not receive the details on cost, meeting point, itinerary or pick up point. We were a family of four and we were ready to do it but made other plans when we did not hear from them. Bjorn called the morning of the trip and was ready to go but by then it was too late.

The whole experience was amazing! My family and I wanted a memorable and unique Norway experience and this tour with Bjorn was just that! The private zodiac ride was incredible and Bjorn was very knowledgable and humorous. We saw amazing views of the fjords and had the whole area to ourselves!!

Overall, this cruise was a perfect blend of adventure, education, and breathtaking scenery. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to truly understand and appreciate the beauty and history of the Norwegian fjords. Bjorn’s extensive knowledge of the fjords and the local communities added so much depth to the journey.

This was a unique and exciting fjord tour! Beautiful scenery, and Bjorn is an expert tour guide and boat driver. Highly recommend taking an afternoon away from the Bergen crowds and into the natural wonders of the fjords! A+ experience, worth every penny.

We had a gorgeous and informative tour with Bjorn! Prior to the tour, I was already impressed with Bjorn’s performance. He answered our questions promptly and provided detailed instructions that created a relaxed and seamless adventure. My wife and I both had big smiles on our faces the entire trip! The fjords we visited were beautiful and serene - not a single cruise ship in sight! We basically had the fjords to ourselves (never even saw another tour group).
Thank you Bjorn!

The weather was horrible but they were very accommodating and dropped us of early. On a good day it would have been wonderful

Absolutely fabulous for all ages!
Can’t rank high enough!
Seven of us alone, from 23 year old to my parents 83 and 85 years of age, and my parents agree it was wonderful…easy pick up from Bergen in comfortable minivan, dressed us at their base launch site so nothing extra needed but your camera, easy loading in the Seven passenger Valiant RIB on seat back chairs that swivel and off for private tour of fyord heading inland in calm, mellow trip with fun and interesting stories from a native; ended at small fishing village and given train tickets( included) to return to Bergen
Wonderful
