Description
Experience Norway’s fjord landscapes on a full-day tour from Bergen. Ride the Flåm Railway, cruise the Nærøyfjord, and visit the Stegastein Viewpoint for breathtaking views.
Begin your adventure with a comfortable minibus drive from Bergen, heading east through dramatic mountain scenery. Stop in the cozy village of Dale for a short break for coffee, snacks, and restrooms before continuing to the picturesque Tvindefossen Waterfall — a perfect place to stretch your legs and capture photos of this natural beauty.
From there, continue to the fjord village of Gudvangen, where you’ll board a modern, electric boat for a 2-hour cruise on the Nærøyfjord. Surrounded by steep mountains, waterfalls, and remote fjord farms, this UNESCO World Heritage fjord is considered one of the most beautiful in the world.
The cruise ends in the charming village of Flåm, located at the innermost part of the Aurlandsfjord. Here, you’ll have time for lunch, sightseeing, or visiting the Flåm Railway Museum before continuing your adventure.
Next, your guide will drive you up the scenic mountain road to the spectacular Stegastein Viewpoint, a glass and steel platform extending 30 meters from the mountainside, 650 meters above the fjord. The panoramic view from here is truly unforgettable — a perfect spot for photos and reflection.
After returning to Flåm, board the famous Flåm Railway (Flåmsbana) — one of the steepest and most breathtaking train journeys in the world. In just one hour, the train climbs from sea level in Flåm to Myrdal Station, 867 meters above the fjord, passing waterfalls, tunnels, and dramatic mountain scenery. At Myrdal, connect to the Bergen Line train for a comfortable return journey to Bergen.
