Personal boat trip (with amazing views)

It was a great boat trip. Jim told beautiful stories and could tell them well. We spent 2.5 hours on the water with a snack and drink halfway. Jim is very passionate and friendly. We really enjoyed it.

The awesome boat trip that allowed us to see seals, get close to the waterfalls with a really nice guide who explained well. We were also able to speed with his powerful boat, it was fun!

We loved it. Terrible day in the weather, a lot of rain.Jim took this to the background.He informed us of everything, invited us to a delicious apple juice and some sausages from the area and made the 2 hours pass very quickly. I chose this Enterprise for several reasons: good reviews, small boat and comfortable (speedboats we tried and are fine but are much more uncomfortable, even more so on rainy days you have to wear your glasses all the time) and for being in Forsand, right at the beginning of the fjord. If you are not staying in Stavanger as was our case, I recommend this tour even more because in total you save 1 hour sailing from there to the fjord.
