Unforgettable experience! recommend it to everyone. Our guide (Frode) is a very friendly man with great knowledge of Viking and Norwegian history. Our guide always reassured us by saying exactly what would happen during the course. Also, we always left the luggage inside the car of our guide (so we didn't need care about it). All the times that we did the train ride, and arrived in a train station, our guide was there waiting for us. He always reported us what would happen in the next track and when arrived again at the end of this course, he was there waiting again. Always at the exact time marked. Almost at the end of our tour, the weather was changing rapidly and so as not to risk being stopped at the train station for 5 hours, our guide drove 400 km with his own car to our hotel in Oslo. making a great effort to always make us comfortable. in summary: I recommend 100% for everyone. perfect trip with the perfect guide.

We took this gorgeous tour even without any info, but it was the best part of our trip! Well-Organised, fast and comfortable. Every point was perfectly organised with the help of guide, who told us facts about sights all the way, he pointed the best views for making photos, this is very important for me as tourist. All transport tickets were sent to us, we didn't have any problems. Next time in Bergen we obviously would take these tours. Recommend! Recommend! Recommend!
