Tripadvisor Reviews

5 out of 5 stars

A perfect day: the weather, the boat, the food, the helicopter ride. Captain Helge was a perfect host. After enjoying a boat trip with all kinds of amenities, the perfect culmination was the Helicopter ride. Seeing from the air all that impressive landscape was the perfect end to a trip like this. The price is expensive, but I would highly recommend this to any one. Having the two perspectives of the fjords is something unimaginable.My 3 children and I enjoyed it every minute.

“Three couples, one motorboat, a terrific skipper and beautiful scenery…all the ingredients for a brilliant day on the water. Our cruise took us through the breathtaking Lysefjord to gaze up in wonder at the famous Pulpit Rock, where we drank champagne washed down with clear, pure water scooped from the nearby waterfall. It was an idyllic, laughter-filled, memorable trip that we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you to our friendly, knowledgeable and professional skipper”
