Private day tour to the Vorings Waterfall— Norway's most visited
Description
Mountains! Fjords! Waterfalls! National Tourist Route! Bunch of additional optional activities!! This is a half-day long private tour— only you or your group will be hosted! The Vorings waterfall is the most visited natural attraction in Norway. The journey takes place on a famous scenic road in Norway with two alternatives- the standard version that includes a private car trip to the waterfall viewpoints. Alternative 2, in addition to the waterfall viewpoint, includes a trip to the famous Kjeåsen mountain farm— the most 'inaccessible' farm in Norway. We also offer additional optional services including cinematic drone videos/images, boat safari etc during the tour. Guests can also be picked up and dropped off at Bergen, Voss or Eidfjord. Note that, in October/November, parts of the waterfall become frozen reducing water flow. The viewing platforms are accessible, but may be icy and thus visitors will need to be careful while treading. The trip may also be closed at that time.

The guide warned us that it would be icy, and half-froze. Still, we wanted to make it. And it was wonderful. Hope to see it in summer too at some point. Another reason to visit it summer is to go the mountain farm as well which is closed in winter times.
It was late autumn (late October) with fiery color in the nature. And it already received first snowfall. It was awesome! If it was not cold and windy, we would have stayed there longer. If you are visiting this place in late autumn and winter, come with your warmest clothes and enjoy the nature to the fullest. Will love to to visit in summer too. The guide was great! Loved it!
I went with my three siblings and would say this trip was excellent value for money compared to others I researched. Our driver, Juba, was very very professional and conscientious - he personalised the experience to ensure we had plenty of coffee stops and lovely views on our way to the waterfall. The views from the waterfall were stunning and very much made our experience in Norway. The details are accurate as advertised. Our group enjoyed the relaxed nature of the drive - Juba was happy to answer our questions about Bergen, provided us with a information sheets about the history of the waterfall and played lovely music on route. I was able to feel relaxed and listen to my own podcast about Norway history and there was no pressure to talk while you soak in the amazing views along the road side. We had unlimited time at the waterfall too and never felt rushed. I was nervous about booking the trip due to lack of reviews but I throughly recommend it!
Driver was not a local, did not know where he was going, could not answer many questions about the region. Literally put us in danger with his driving! I want my money back
Dear Customer, We appreciate that you have taken the time to leave us a review. We are extremely sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience with us. However, we are not quite sure if we understand the reason for your disappointment. In order to clarify any potential misunderstanding with you and to improve our service even more, we wanted to probe into this issue more. Therefore, we asked you a few questions afterward, which you have not answered. If you could manage time to answer those questions, I am sure we would be able to provide explanations— because we are very confident about the quality of our service— both in terms of safety and comfort of the guests. We wish you all the best
Great place and guide was amazing. Worth the 160 KM from Bergen!! Juda was efficient and courteous.
Very happy to know that you liked the trip. We would love to host you again on other trips of ours!
Our guide was prompt, communicated with us prior to tour about potential weather issues and very knowledgeable about the area. The views were fantastic and the whole trip gave us an unbelievable view of the countryside and all the beautiful features of Norway. Highly recommend taking this tour!
Great trip. The weather could have been better, but that was beyond anyone’s hand! Service from the provider FjordVista was great.
Very happy to know that you liked the trip. We would love to host you again on other trips of ours!
An amazing day with a great driver. He took us all over, the walss were cloudy and rainy so we could not see them all but we saw some, then he tooks us to many other stops and saw some beautiful waterfalls and sites.it was a very full day of spectacular beauty.
Very happy to know that you liked the trip. We would love to host you again on other trips of ours!
Juba was a great driver and tour guide. We had a beautiful day seeing the fjords and waterfalls of Norway. I highly recommend. The morning was wet and foggy but as the day progressed the sun came out and we saw so much and a few different stops
:-) Morning doesn't always show the day after all! Very happy that it turned out better at the end!
We knew it might be drizzling and so it was. But it was okay-ish and did not bother us. Unfortunately, it was foggy at that time when we were by the waterfall. The fog was very dynamic and perhaps after 1-2 hours it would be away, but we were unlucky !!! The tour guide was very cosidrate about it and he tried his best to make it up. He took us to another waterfall (a smaller one, available in their alternative options) free of cost and offered us a trip to downtown Bergen for about 20 mintues. Very kind. One of the best parts of this trip the visit to the mountain farm Kjeasen. With couds, the view was breathtaking and surrealistic. I will be back again and hope that that day would be sunny :-). Many thanks to the supplier team and the guide for his efforts to accomodate us. Highly recommended and wish that you will have no fog!
Very happy to know that you liked the trip. We would love to host you again on other trips of ours!
