Highlights
  • Osterfjorden - Osterfjorden is a fjord in Vestland county. The fjord is one of three fjords surrounding the island of Osterøy. The fjord runs along the municipal border of Lindås and Osterøy municipalities. The fjord begins at the Romarheimsfjorden and flows to the west for 27 kilometres (17 mi) before ending near the village of Knarvik at the confluence of four fjords: Osterfjorden, Radfjorden (to the north), Sørfjorden (to the south), and Salhusfjorden (to the west). The Osterfjorden is generally about 1 to 3 kilometres (0.62 to 1.86 mi) wide and the deepest point in the fjord reaches a depth of 639 metres (2,096 ft) below sea level
What's Included

Additional Information

Join us on this 4-hour fjord cruise to the scenic Osterfjord and Mostraumen Channel. Experience the once-in-a-lifetime thrill of traveling through the majestic Norwegian fjords on a scenic boat tour departing from Bergen.

On board the high speed catamaran you will experience the magnificent landscape in Bergen’s nearby fjords and the Nordhordland region. When sailing out from Bergen’s inner harbor you will have a great view to some of the oldest and most relevant historical sites in the city, including the medieval fortress Bergenhus, St Mary’s Church and the colorful Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf, which is on UNESCO’s World Heritage list.

From there, we sail through beautiful Western-Norwegian scenery in the Cityfjord, Salhusfjord and Osterfjord towards the dramatic Mostraumen Channel. The captain safely steers the boat through narrow sounds, a maze of islands, deep fjords and beautiful waterfalls. Daily departures from Dreggekaien Pier in the city centre all year.

  • This tour will go in rain or shine. In the winter months, it can happen that the sea freezes in the innermost part of the fjord where there is a lot of fresh water mixed with the sea water, brackish water. If there is so much ice that there is no safe passage for boats, the captain will then choose an alternative route in this area. This is beyond our control and it does not give grounds for claiming a refund for the trip. We will always do our best to give our customers great experiences, even on days when the forces of nature are not easy to handle.

Great Cruise - We had a clear blue sky on the day of our cruise. I am sure that contributed to a wonderful day. We arrived early and got a great seat by the window. There were empty seats inside but some people opted to sit outside. The scenery was spectacular and the information presented was quite interesting. I had no trouble hearing the PA from our seats. If you have a choice, try to sit on the starboard side. That is where most of the sights being described were located. I also recommend going outside occasionally, especially when the boat reaches the end of the fjord. Remember, it will be chilly at that point. A nice relaxing cruise back capped a great day. I recommend this trip if you are in Bergen.

The scenery was repetitive, and the trip took too long - I’m writing this review very seriously, hoping it can help others. To be honest, I was a bit disappointed. It’s not that the fjords aren’t beautiful—they are stunning—but the views are just too repetitive. For a 4-hour round-trip, you actually see everything within the first 30 minutes: bridges, waterfalls (which were almost dry), and small houses on the mountains. This same scenery repeats for the entire 4 hours. I paid close attention to what other passengers were doing, and after about 30 minutes, most people had already turned to their phones. For the $76 price tag, I expected more. Later, I went to Oslo and saw a 1.5-hour fjord tour advertised. Regardless of the price, I felt that would have been a much better use of my time.
