Amazing!

rebeccahall1470, Nov 2024

Loved this trip! I was a bit worried about this being my first solo trip but I shouldn’t have worried at all. There were other solo travellers on the trip too and everyone was so friendly. The tour guide, Bas, was also really friendly, had a lot of interesting knowledge and was more than happy to take a few photos for me! You know you’ve gone to a beautiful place when the tour guide is still impressed by the views! The scenery was amazing and just breathtaking. The hike was not too strenuous and really beautiful. I could have looked at the glacier lake all day! Seeing some snow while we were driving was a bonus too. The mini bus was comfortable and we made plenty of stops throughout the day. The only thing I’d say is there wasn’t many food options so make sure you bring lunch. I’m so glad I went on this trip and would definitely recommend. Thanks for an amazing day!

Value for money and an amazing experience!!

M3749KQlouisem, Oct 2024

There was a good level of activity balanced with travel for a 10hr trip. The tour guide Bas was very informative and humorous and made it easy to chat to him and approach if there were any issues. It may have been better to structure the day with something more to do after the national park, rather than before. It was definitely worth the cost and time and a magical experience!

Great Experience - 10/10 Tour while in Bergen

sierrad680, Oct 2024

the whole experience was so worth it! the organization and coordination was seamless and easy. the stops on the way to the hike were so much fun and absolutely stunning. folgefonna park is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and we had plenty of time to hike around and explore independently. our guide throughout the day, Bas, was wonderful, informative, and very funny. He was able to show us an incredible amount of Norway while always keeping us on time, entertained and engaged, and excited for the next part of the tour. 10/10 recommend signing up for this tour with Bas!

Tour to Nacional Park Folgefonna with Velkommen Norway

ankica2016, Oct 2024

Fantastic day tour out of Bergen in the national park Folgefonna. The nature is just beautiful and mystical, you really feel like you are in the land of trolls. And the tour guide, Bas, is just excellent, funny and full of knowledge. He was explaining everything and plus telling us little stories about trolls. So cute! You could see that he loves what he's doing! I would recommend this tour and, of course, Bas!
