Bergen: UNESCO Fjord Cruise & Stegastein Viewpoint - Incl. Lunch

The drive from Bergen offers stunning landscapes, with views of the beautiful Osterfjord and fascinating stories from your guide along the way.

After about an hour, we make a short stop — a chance to stretch your legs and use the restroom. When opening hours allow, the break is arranged at Dale Outlet, a welcoming shop located beside the historic textile factory that has made the village renowned for its quality knitwear. It offers a variety of great goods from different suppliers at reduced prices.

About thirty minutes later, we pass through Voss — a charming town in the heart of Western Norway — before the scenery becomes even more dramatic as we approach majestic mountains, spectacular waterfalls, and one of Norway’s most beautiful fjords.

Tvindefossen is an impressive waterfall, dropping 116 meters in a beautiful display of multiple streams cascading down the cliff.

The waterfall is surrounded by a legend claiming that its water has rejuvenating powers. This legend has made Tvindefossen one of Norway’s most visited natural attractions, welcoming thousands of visitors each year.

Gudvangen is a beautiful and authentic village, nestled deep within the UNESCO-listed Nærøyfjord — a place that feels truly Norwegian.
Surrounded by towering mountains and cascading waterfalls, the village offers a calm and charming atmosphere.

Gudvangen is also home to the famous Viking Village, which adds to its unique character and historical charm.

Here you’ll have some free time to explore the area and enjoy a warm lunch at the café by the pier before we board the cruise boat.

In Gudvangen, we board the boat that takes us onto the Nærøyfjord – one of Norway’s most beautiful and dramatic fjords.
With steep mountain walls, narrow passages, and impressive landscapes, the fjord offers a quiet and unforgettable way to experience Norway’s nature.

The Nærøyfjord is a branch of the Sognefjord and stretches for about 17 kilometres, with mountains rising up to 1,800 metres above sea level.
As part of the UNESCO World Heritage list, this area stands as a remarkable example of Norway’s natural beauty.

Sit back, relax, and take in the unspoiled nature around you!

Flåm is a small, scenic village located at the heart of the Aurlandsfjord, a branch of the majestic Sognefjord.

Surrounded by steep mountains and waterfalls, it offers a peaceful atmosphere and some of the most beautiful scenery in the region.

The village is home to the famous Flåm Railway, which winds its way from the fjord up to the mountain station at Myrdal – a remarkable train journey often described as one of the most beautiful in the world.

In Flåm, you’ll have some free time to explore what interests you most – perhaps a visit to the charming Flåm Church or the Railway Museum, or simply a coffee and a sweet treat at a local bakery.

Stegastein is a spectacular viewing platform that stretches 30 metres out from the mountainside, 650 metres above the Aurlandsfjord.
From here, you’ll enjoy an incredible panoramic view of the fjord and the surrounding mountains – a favourite stop for both visitors and locals.

The platform is part of the National Tourist Route between Aurland and Lærdal, offering a unique chance to experience Norway’s dramatic landscape up close.

Occasionally, summer fog can reduce visibility at this height, but on such days we’ll make an alternative stop in Aurland.

After visiting Stegastein, we head back toward Bergen. On the way, we stop once more in Gudvangen for a well-deserved break at Gudvangen Fjordtell.
Here, you can enjoy a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a tasty Norwegian pastry in a cozy fjordside setting.
