the cruise was very nice. however i had difficulty finding the place where the boat left. except for a small sign that indicated the departure times of the ship that coincided with those of the vaucer there was nothing to confirm that this was the right place. there was no one to ask. i had confirmation of the place only when the boat arrived. more information would be needed.

Great activity and super friendly staff. Given a drink and chocolate bar. Along with a route. Note this is not with a tour guide but great all the same. BOOK when you get to place as it’s £71 at the shop and £102 via this site.

Janika was terrific. We saw the fjords at our own pace. We visited small quaint towns and avoided the tourist buses. We had a SUV to ourselves for 8 hours.

The guide didn't say much. A little info along the way would have been nice. Nature is phenomenal - magical!!

Amazing. Very steady and relaxing. Loved every minute
