5.00Hjørundfjord was well worth seeing with it fjord topped with snow and then there was the massive falls in Hellesylt. A ferry experience was included from Sykkylven. The sailing was shared with other tour options, so an info sheet from the operator was needed not to miss the buses.
Overall great. The first...

4.00Overall great. The first bus driver seemed to be confused about the itinerary, but it worked out. The views were stunning.
Somewhat disappointed!!

3.00I was disappointed that the driver gave no explanation of Fredericksburg or the surrounding area. Two of the winery's we went to were very close to the downtown area. No travel time. The wines at the wineries were not very good. Very unusual that we purchased no wines.
It was only an ok excursion.

3.00The fjord was beautiful and we enjoyed stopping at the very small town. The boat ride offered no information at all. There was no speaking or information offered. The bus ride was more informative. The bus driver offered frequent information. One issue was that we were late in the season so no food places were open in the town we stopped in on the bus.
Would do it again!

5.00Great opportunity to see nature. Great vehicle for the ‘bus’ portion. Advertisement could improve to reflect the driving times and not destination stops. I would do it again!
Excellent tour

5.00Good tour. The boat went slow enough to allow enjoying the scenery. The land tour was excellent. Our driver stopped at the set locations and allowed enough time for picture taking. He was knowledgeable and informative.
