About this activity

A 14.5-hour private expedition combining three of Norway's most iconic experiences: a guided drive through fjord valleys, an immersive Viking Village visit in Gudvangen, a UNESCO Nærøyfjord cruise on silent electric boats, and the acclaimed Flåm Railway—all in one day from Bergen to Oslo with a dedicated English-speaking guide.

Experience the ultimate journey through Fjord Norway on this exclusive private tour from Bergen to Oslo. Combining dramatic fjord landscapes, Viking history, and two of Norway's most celebrated railway journeys, this tour showcases some of the country's most spectacular scenery in a single unforgettable day.

Your adventure begins with private pick-up in Bergen and a scenic drive through the heart of Western Norway. Travelling with your own local English-speaking guide, you'll journey through beautiful valleys, mountain landscapes, and charming rural communities on your way to Gudvangen.

In Gudvangen, you'll step back in time with a visit to the Viking Valley, an authentic Viking village where history comes alive. Explore traditional buildings, meet modern-day Vikings, and learn about the culture and traditions that shaped Norway more than a thousand years ago.

From Gudvangen, you'll embark on a scenic fjord cruise through the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Nærøyfjord. Surrounded by towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, and remote farms clinging to the mountainsides, the Nærøyfjord is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful fjords in the world. The silent electric vessels operating on the fjord allow you to fully immerse yourself in the stunning natural surroundings.

Arriving in Flåm, the journey continues aboard the world-famous Flåm Railway. Frequently ranked among the most scenic train journeys on the planet, this remarkable railway climbs from the fjord through steep valleys and dramatic mountain landscapes, offering unforgettable views along the way. Highlights include rushing rivers, deep ravines, and the spectacular Kjosfossen waterfall.

At Myrdal, you'll board the historic Bergen Railway for the final leg of the journey to Oslo. Crossing the vast mountain plateau and the wild landscapes surrounding Hallingskarvet National Park, this iconic railway is considered one of Europe's most beautiful train routes.

The tour includes private transportation from Bergen, a local English-speaking guide, admission to the Viking Valley, a premium fjord cruise on the Nærøyfjord, and train tickets for both the Flåm Railway and Bergen Railway.

Your guide will accompany you throughout the road journey and fjord cruise. The final train journey from Flåm to Oslo is self-guided, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenery as you travel towards Norway's capital.

The tour concludes upon arrival at Oslo Central Station.

Highlights

  • UNESCO World Heritage Nærøyfjord cruise on eco-friendly electric vessels

Insider tips

  • The Nærøyfjord is narrowest and most photogenic in its middle section—position yourself on deck during that stretch for best camera angles
  • Book this tour in clear weather if possible; overcast days diminish the fjord's grandeur, though mist can create moody photographs
  • Wear layers—the fjord can be significantly cooler than Bergen, and the train journey involves varying elevations and temperatures
  • Arrive early at each transition point; the itinerary requires tight timing between the village, cruise, and railway

Good to know

  • Total duration is 14.5 hours; bring snacks and water despite meals being available at certain stops
  • Comfortable, non-slip walking shoes required for the Viking Village and boat transfers
  • The tour ends in Oslo, not Bergen—arrange onward accommodation or transport in advance
  • All transportation and attractions included; small group (private) option limits crowding at popular sites
  • Accessible by private vehicle initially; some steep terrain at Viking Village and boat boarding may challenge mobility needs
