Itinéraire
Ce tronçon de la ligne Bergen vous emmène à travers des paysages en constante évolution – du terrain de haute montagne aux vallées luxuriantes, en passant par les rivières et les villages Norvégiens traditionnels. *À certaines dates, l'horaire du train peut varier, et le voyage en train peut avoir lieu dans l'après-midi à la place. Détendez-vous dans votre siège et profitez de larges vues panoramiques pendant que le train serpente vers la côte ouest. Le voyage offre une transition paisible et pittoresque des montagnes spectaculaires à la ville côtière de Bergen, vous donnant le temps de réfléchir sur les expériences inoubliables de la journée.
Le chemin de fer Flåm est l'un des trajets en train les plus spectaculaires au monde. Le parcours de 20 kilomètres entre Flåm et Myrdal vous emmène du fjord aux montagnes à travers des vallées encaissées, 20 tunnels et des cascades impressionnantes. Avec un dénivelé de 865 mètres, c’est à la fois une merveille d’ingénierie et une expérience nature que vous n’oublierez pas de sitôt. Profitez de la vue depuis des calèches confortables en parcourant certains des paysages les plus époustouflants de Norvège.
Flåm est un petit village pittoresque situé au cœur de l'Aurlandsfjord, une branche du majestueux Sognefjord. Entouré de montagnes escarpées et de cascades, il offre une atmosphère paisible et certains des plus beaux paysages de la région. Le village abrite le célèbre chemin de fer Flåm, qui serpente du fjord jusqu'à la gare de Myrdal - un voyage en train remarquable souvent décrit comme l'un des plus beaux au monde. À Flåm, vous aurez du temps libre pour explorer ce qui vous intéresse le plus - peut-être une visite à la charmante église de Flåm ou au musée des chemins de fer, ou simplement un café et une friandise dans une boulangerie locale.
A Gudvangen, nous embarquons sur le bateau qui nous emmène sur le Nærøyfjord – l’un des fjords les plus beaux et les plus spectaculaires de Norvège. Avec ses parois abruptes, ses passages étroits et ses paysages impressionnants, le fjord offre une façon calme et inoubliable de découvrir la nature norvégienne. Le Nærøyfjord est une branche du Sognefjord et s'étend sur environ 17 kilomètres, avec des montagnes s'élevant jusqu'à 1 800 mètres d'altitude. Inscrite sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO, cette zone est un exemple remarquable de la beauté naturelle de la Norvège. Asseyez-vous, détendez-vous et admirez la nature préservée qui vous entoure !
Gudvangen est un village magnifique et authentique, niché au cœur du Nærøyfjord — un endroit qui se sent vraiment Norvégien — classé au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO. Entouré de montagnes imposantes et de cascades, le village offre une atmosphère calme et charmante.
Tvindefossen est une chute d'eau impressionnante, de 116 mètres de haut, connue pour sa belle forme et les nombreux ruisseaux d'eau en cascade sur la falaise. La cascade a également acquis la réputation d’avoir des propriétés « magiques » – ses eaux auraient un effet rajeunissant. Cela a fait de Tvindefossen l'une des attractions naturelles les plus visitées de Norvège, attirant des milliers de visiteurs chaque année.

Train to Flam had to seat reservations so we had to give up our seats to reserved passengers and everyone had to look for available seats which were not clearly marked.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the seating arrangement on the train did not meet your expectations. In Norway, there is only one train operator, and during the high season reserved seats are often assigned throughout the train and are not always in the most desirable locations. For this reason, we choose to offer our guests the flexibility to select any available seats on the Bergen–Myrdal train rather than assigning fixed seats in advance. The second part of the journey, on the historic Flåm Railway, operates with unreserved seating for all passengers, regardless of ticket type. That said, the comfort of our guests is always our top priority. Based on feedback like yours, we have reviewed this part of the tour and, from August onwards, we have introduced a more suitable seating solution for the Bergen–Myrdal train journey to make the experience even smoother. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We hope that, despite this inconvenience, you were able to enjoy the spectacular scenery along one of Norway's most beautiful railway journeys.
The tour was spectacular, overall. I suggest the company to make the reservation of the chairs in the trains, unfortunately the company did not reserve the seats in the trains and we had to change our seats twice and it was very inconvenient. The guide was very friendly, patient and helped a lot, especially when changing the seats on the train.
Thank you for your feedback, and we are very pleased to hear that you found the tour spectacular overall and that your guide was helpful and supportive throughout the day. Regarding the train seating, we understand that having to change seats was inconvenient. In fact, we recently made the decision not to reserve seats on the trains and instead allow our guests to choose their own seats when boarding. The reason for this is that on the Vy train between Bergen and Myrdal, reserved seats do not always guarantee a window view and can sometimes be automatically allocated in the family/children's zone. We found that many guests preferred the flexibility of selecting seats themselves. As for the Flåm Railway between Myrdal and Flåm, all seating is unreserved for everyone, so passengers are free to choose any available seat. We appreciate your comments and will continue to look for ways to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible for our guests. Kind regards, Travel North Team
Great experience! Our guides were awesome. Really worth it if it is within budget. Great use of a day!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We are delighted to hear that you had a great experience and that you enjoyed spending the day with us. It is especially nice to hear that our guides helped make the trip memorable. Thank you for choosing Travel North, and we hope to welcome you back to Norway again in the future! Kind regards, Travel North Team
Usoa was a wonderful guide for the day! While there was a lot of time spent on a train and bus to and from the main attraction (Flam and Fjord Cruise), the guide was most engaging on the bus back to Bergen. It was a great way to see the amazing scenery on the west side of Norway. And the day I went, there were only 19 other people on the tour. It was a nice intimate gathering. Only "average" comment was the lunch. Basic salmon sandwich and filling.
Thank you for this thoughtful review. We are especially pleased to hear your words about Usoa — strong guiding can make a long day feel much lighter. We also always try to avoid making the day feel too crowded, which is one of the main reasons why in the summer months we take the train in the morning, to give guests a more comfortable overall experience :)
It is a well-organized tour of the fjord. Two scenic trains, a bus, and a boat that crosses it from top to bottom. It is a bit expensive, but it is worth it.
Thank you for your feedback. We are very happy to hear that the tour felt well organised and worth the experience. We also understand your comment about the price. We put a great deal of effort into keeping our tours as affordable as possible, even though this is not always easy in Norway. We are glad to know that the overall experience felt worth it for you!
Wow what a day. Firstly, this day was so well organised. You just had to turn up and everything was sorted for you. Effortless. The guides were very knowledgeable and polite, with a great sense of humour and did well to herd 30+ people around from bus to boat to train. First we took the coach to Gudvangen, few toilet breaks along the way and there’s also a toilet on the bus. Lunch was tasty and drinks included too. We took the boat from there to Flåm. Very smooth ride, lots of information about the landscape as you’re sailing along. Again toilets and cafe on board were brilliant. Limited things to do in Flåm but just enough to do in the time before the railway journey. Railway was great with spectacular views. Take a waterproof layer for any waterfall encounters - if you’re bothered by cold water! Would recommend this to anyone. All tickets for train were sent the day before and very easy to use. Any questions on the day, your guide will be able to answer.
everything felt easy and well organised for you from beginning to end, because that is exactly the atmosphere we hope to create. And your words about the guides managing the whole day, while keeping it informative and light, are genuinely appreciated. It is also lovely to hear that the fjord cruise, the railway, and even the practical details all came together so well for you. Reviews like this stay with us!
The bus ride was good. The lunch was terrible and rushed! Getting on the boat in pouring down rain waiting with 400 passengers was a nightmare!!! The train situation was confusing and crazy!!! You booked us on a late train when everyone else got on an earlier train! So we purchased another 2 tickets so we would not have to sit and wait in the rain for the later train!!!! The train was ok but we had no idea we had to change trains half way! Very little info was provided. I have taken many private Viator tours with friends that were great but this group trip was terrible. Will never do a group trip with you again!!!! Especially at your high cost.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the bus ride good, but we are very sorry that several parts of the day felt so frustrating. The weather and the busy boarding conditions at the boat are unfortunately outside our control, especially on one of Norway’s most popular routes. As for lunch, the tour includes a light meal as described, but we understand that it did not meet your expectations. Regarding the train, the booked departure is part of the planned itinerary, which includes free time in Flåm before the return. The change of trains is part of the railway route, but we understand that this should have been communicated more clearly. Thank you for highlighting this.
This was an exceptional tour! Alice was the best tour guide ever, and took care of every detail. Thank you for such a lovely bus-boat-Flamrail-train tour of western Norway!! ❤️
Thank you so much for these wonderful words ❤️ We are absolutely delighted to hear that the whole journey through Western Norway came together so beautifully for you. And your words about Alice are especially appreciated — taking care of every detail is exactly the kind of experience we want to create.
It was wonderful tour,very well organised,views on the cruise were amazing.
Thank you for your feedback. It is great to hear that the day felt smooth and well put together, and that the cruise views stood out so strongly. Those moments on the fjord really do stay with you.
Very long day but extremely interesting and beautiful. The only drawback was lunch ,not very good. ...
Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you found the day beautiful and interesting. We would just like to note that lunch is described in the tour information as a light lunch. Even with this meal included, the tour remains one of the most competitively priced options on this itinerary.
