Overview

Bergen Golden Circle Fjordtour is tailored to cruise travelers who need to be back in time for their ship's departure. All the highlights of the fjords in just 5 hours. This tour takes you on a "Christmas card galore" just meters from several cascading waterfalls exceeding 200 feet, and to the small picturesque village of Mo in the inner fjord. Also, -Visit the strongest tidal current in south Norway and will have a close encounter with the mere force of nature. The narrow roads leave the Minibus as the only option, and you can enjoy the travel in a small group instead of the cruise lines "pre-fabricated" tours.

Itinerary

Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf

Passing by the famous Bryggen Wharf and UNESCO site as we are heading out of the buzzlng city on the way to the Golden Circle of the Fjords and waterfalls.
N/A

The Nordhordland Bridge has completely sealed off the beautiful Osterfjord area to cruise travelers since it was built in 1994. Hence have this area been inaccessible as the modern boats are far too big to venture under the small inlet. The Nordhordland Bridge is a marvel of engineering and is North Europes longest floating bridge without side anchors. The large arch construction is made to withstand the current in the fjord as the tide travels in and out twice a day.

10 minutes
N/A

As we travel along the fjord side, we make a fjordside stop at Vikanes to gaze at the mirror-like waters in this highly protected area. Tall mountains surround the place and make wind and weather to be a Bergen City phenomena

5 minutes
N/A

The Mostaruam tidal channel is one of the narrowest areas of the fjords and this is where the Osterfjord stopped until the spring of 1743 when a large flood washed away the outlet of what used to be a river from the Mo lake. As a result - the tide now comes in and with it saltwater. The Fjord is as a result the "youngest" fjord in Norway and did not exist 300 years ago.

5 minutes
Mo

Mo Village is a picturesque small place with only some 380 inhabitants. The Mo waterfront is a group of modern buildings that have its architecture inspired from long traditions as it resembles both the Bryggen Wharf in Bergen and the historical seahouses found along the fjord banks in many small places. Here we make a longer stop of 20 minutes so people can have a restroom visit and a cup of coffee at the local shops.

20 minutes
N/A

The Hesjedalsfossen twin waterfall plunges into a free fall of some 63 meters (206 feet) as it falls into a cavity on the Fjord bank. We stop just meters away from it and during the spring it is wize to bring an umbrella for the best view and keeping dry.

10 minutes
N/A

The Kallestad bridge connects the largest inland island in Europe, Osteroy - to the mainland. The bridge offers a spectacular viewpoint with the unique roadless Veafjord scenery in the background. Definitely the tours "hottest" photospot

5 minutes
N/A

After Stamneshella we make a small stop at the strongest tidal current in south Norway and where the name, STRAUME actually translates directly to the English word "current". During the lowering tide the fjord looks like a wild river and the force of nature becomes obvious to see with your own eyes. After this stop we start our return to Bergen as we arrive at the larger road E-16 leading back to the cruise port.

Fantastic, personal day trip

Published on Jun, 2024

We had a wonderful day with Thor! Such a lovely, personal trip along beautiful waterways with interesting commentary and storytelling. It was just our group of seven. We got a wonderful feel for local life while seeing picturesque towns, beautiful waterfalls, and amazing landscapes. We were able to get out and walk around and got lots of great pictures! Thank you Thor!❤️

The most memorable day of our trip

Published on Jun, 2024

Awesome tour. If in Bergen, Golden Circle is a must. Nature at its best. It is beyond beautiful. And cannot miss the boat. It is just so serene that words cannot explain the beauty. Our guides, Bjorn and Tor were the best.

Great trip

Published on Apr, 2024

Good way to see the golden circle with limited time. We saw Fjord, waterfalls and glacier. The guide is friendly and informative.

The Tourguide was fabulously entertaining

Published on Apr, 2024

Over the years, I have taken many tours in the places I've gone to and have seen and heard quite a few tour guides as a result. However, Bjorn, who led the tour around the Golden Circle, must be the most entertaining one I have had the pleasure of listening to. He was able to do anything from jokes to in-depth stories about the political issues of Norway, the climate debate, and the life of the modern Vikings of Norway. There is no doubt that the tour and scenery is great, but the tourguide made this such a good tour that we kept our discussion about these topics even at late night. Top-notch hasslefree tour that is easy to recommend.

Way better than the famous "Norway in a Nutshell"

Published on Apr, 2024

I booked two tours for my Bergen journey, and it came as a surprise that this rather affordable tour was way better than the famous NIN tour. We left of from the meeting point in the bus and instead of jumping from different modes of transportation, this tour took us comfortably around the roughly 5 hour tour. As a engineer, I was absolutely stunned by the narrow roads and the hand-driven tunnels that's truly worth a mention. The bus driver even stopped shortly inside and let us see the openings that were made before electric light was illuminating them. From our perspective this tour has it all and is giving you all you need in a way better timeframe than it's big brother that goes on for more than 11 hours. We returned to Bergen at 1 PM, just in time for a lunch. Highly recommended.
