I would definitely go if I was there again. - It was a great experience! Beautiful fjord to behold from the water. Nice fast boat! The captain was great and told all sorts of things at the stops.

Absolutely Brilliant Experience - Absolutely brilliant experience the guide/skipper ( I am sorry I forgot your name) was so informative and you could tell he loved his job. The Hardangerfjord is beautiful so peaceful would definitely come back and do another RIB maybe the longer one. Came by bus from bergen to Oystese which took about 1hr 45mins but the journey was beautiful, the time went so quick and a lovely way to see Norway and only £10 return. The first bus that arrived at Bergen bus station was full so they put another one on which arrived 10 mis later but made the time up to Oystese.

A brilliant fun activity for everyone. - Went out at 3.00pm today and had the most fabulous time. We had such a brilliant helmsman who could speak perfect English. He talked about things we were seeing, gave the history, gave us a thrill with fast, speedy and swirly moves over the water- just a great time. The waterproof gear, goggles and beanie are perfect. Kept us warm (it didn’t rain so couldn’t test that side of them!) Great changing facilities with plenty of room, toilets and a mirror. Couldn’t fault this activity- thank you for such fun. ( great value too)

Must do! - What a fun way to see the fjords! We had an up close look at many wayerfalls as well as a drink of the freshest water anywhere! It was rainy and we were the only two passengers but out guide took us out anyway. He was happy to stop for photos anf go at our pace. It was a memory of Norway that we will treasure!

Fantastic experience - Simply one of the best things I have ever done. The scenery is stunning and it is an incredible experience to be able to get that close to nature in such a quiet environment with so few other people around. (We didn't see another moving boat the entire time.) The experience is completely different to being on one of the larger sight-seeing boats. Plus you get the exhilaration on occasions of the speed! They provided everything we needed, a really thoughtful and professional organisation.

Great fun - A thrilling tour around some of the highlights of the fjord. The views along the quiet arm of the fjord were fantastic, as was going under waterfalls and driving at speed across the water. The guide/driver was pretty taciturn and gruff and told us off for being late even though we were earlier than the specified arrival time. With a more charming guide this would be a 5-star trip but was still a great experience.
