This morning, following an early breakfast, you’ll check out of your hotel to transfer to the picturesque village of Flåm. If you are travelling during the summer months (c.15th May to 30th September), you’ll cruise along the longest fjord in Norway, Sognefjord, on a catamaran, departing at 8am. This crossing, taking approximately five and a half hours, is a spectacular way to experience the fantastic nature here. If you’re travelling outside of summer, you won’t miss out on the views as you travel via rail from Bergen to Flåm, changing at Myrdal to enjoy the scenic Flåmsbana route, through the high mountains and into the valleys, with extraordinary scenery along the way. The train journey from Bergen to Flåm is approximately 3.5 hours.

Bergen train station is a 15-minute walk away from your hotel, and you can add on a taxi as an optional extra if preferred – please let us know at the time of booking, or alternatively, you can arrange this directly with the hotel when you arrive in Bergen.

Once you arrive in Flåm, you’ll check into the Flåmsbrygga Hotel, situated right on the harbour for a quiet and peaceful spot with views of the fjord. 

This afternoon, you’ll get the opportunity to see even more of this breathtaking nature during an exciting RIB safari. You’ll go through the Aurlandsfjord and to the entrance of the spectacular Nærøyfjord – a UNESCO World Heritage Site with steep mountainsides and cascading waterfalls. For 1 hr 30 minutes, you’ll be on the lookout for seals, porpoises, and eagles as you hear stories and tales from Norwegian history, all while experiencing some of the most beautiful nature in the world. 

Following your time on the water, you’ll have the evening free to spend as you please in Flåm.

Following breakfast, you’ll check out of your hotel and return to Bergen on the Flåm Railway, one of the world’s steepest train rides taking you through the Flåm valley and up to the high mountains in Myrdal station. Take in the panoramic views of some of the wildest and most magnificent nature in Norway. Changing at Myrdal, you will then take the train straight to Bergen. Arriving in Bergen, your hotel is a 15-minute walk away, or we can arrange a private taxi for you if you wish. There are also plenty of taxis on arrival at the station.

Returning to Bergen, you’ll check into your hotel before meeting with your local guide this afternoon to take a history and culture walk around the city.
