Half-day fjord cruise from Bergen to Mostraumen
Description
Experience a Norwegian fjord in just a few hours. This half-day cruise takes you from the heart of Bergen through the 27-kilometre-long Osterfjord toward the stunning Mostraumen straits. As we navigate the narrowest parts of the fjord, we bring you right up to steep mountainsides and waterfalls. The boat departs from Zachariasbryggen, next to the Fish Market, making it one of the easiest ways to explore a Norwegian fjord while staying in Bergen. The modern catamaran is designed for comfort in all weather. Enjoy the views from our spacious indoor cabin or head out onto the open decks to breathe in the fresh fjord air. The boat is fully accessible for wheelchairs and strollers, making this a perfect trip for everyone. Grab a locally baked treat or a hot/cold drink from the onboard snack bar and enjoy scouting for wildlife like sea eagles along this scenic fjord route.

It's a beautiful trip, which lets you truly appreciate the magnificent landscape. I would recommend it.
Nice boat, good narration, great trip. The fjords were beautiful, as well as other scenery. Pretty high cliffs!
Excellent and relatively inexpensive way of seeing the fjords. The route includes amazing landscapes, waterfalls possibly better when there had been more rain, beautiful secluded villages and breathtaking cliffs . I couldn’t hear all of the narration due to wind noise. But that was okay and better than a loud narration. On board facilities, food and drink were okay, but no vegan options sadly.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the stunning scenery, waterfalls, and villages along the route. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the narration and the onboard food selection. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we're pleased that you found the cruise to be a great way to experience the fjords.
Great cruise and staff! Nice commentary and got lucky with good weather! Highly recommend if your looking to get out on the water.
Thank you for your great review! We're so glad you enjoyed the cruise, our staff, and the commentary - and that you got lucky with the weather too! Hope to welcome you back onboard soon.
Beautiful scenery, however the upper deck is standing only, so your seating is indoors downstairs. You do have an opportunity to go onto the top deck for pictures, and you can go onto the bow when they open it during slow sections. It’s pretty but it may not be for everyone.
I accidentally booked out of Stavanger instead of Bergen. Stavanger is 4 hours away and Viator helped me rebook from Bergen even though I was past the 24 hour no-refund period so I was very grateful. This was a great 3 hour trip. The Electric catamara is very stable and quiet. The boat did stop at certain spots so people could get out on deck and take pictures. They also provided narration in english as we navigated the fjords. Seating indoors was very comfortable and featured ample restrooms and a snack bar. Despite the short trip, saw sone awesome remote villages deep in the fjord. I would highly recommend this trip!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so glad the Viator team could help you rebook from Bergen, and that you still had a great 3-hour trip with comfortable seating, narration, and views of remote villages in the fjord. Hope to welcome you back onboard again soon
The scenery was so beautiful. The captain made announcements for historical sites and other points of interest. We were enjoying the view so much that we never went inside for anything, except to escape the downpour of rain in the last 5 minutes. The inside looked very nice, and perhaps next time we would get a hot drink for the ride, but we were very content on the sun deck.
Thank you for the lovely review! We're so happy you enjoyed the scenery and the captain's commentary from the sun deck. Hope to welcome you back soon, so that you can enjoy the inside cabin as well.
Wonderful ride into the fjord. Please make sure to arrive early; there are many who want to join. The dock is rather narrow. The boat is fantastic and really fast.
Thank you for your great review! We're so glad you enjoyed the fast, fun ride on our boat. As you noticed, summer is our high season with a lot of demand, so we really appreciate the helpful tip for future guests to arrive early given the narrow jetty. We hope to welcome you back onboard soon
We lucked out with the weather and the scenery was stunningly beautiful! We are so glad we decided to do this very last minute!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad the weather cooperated and that you enjoyed the stunning scenery, although Lysefjord in alle kinds of weather offers a different view. We hope to welcome you back for another spontaneous adventure!
The boat was unexpectedly comfortable and well appointed and staff were friendly and informative. Despite some dreary weather this was a trip highlight! We loved every minute of this excursion! Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We're thrilled you found the boat comfortable and our staff friendly and informative, even with the weather. Hope to see you again soon!
