Breathtaking scenery and good conversation - We had a very small group of just 3 people, so it was a lovely intimate experience. Gerard was friendly, knowledgeable about Norway and able to answer questions about the nature, the history, the culture and our conversations were great. The landscape was beautiful and he paid attention and made many stops when he saw a view that would be good for a photo or something interesting for us to see. It was a good use of time and we got to see areas we may not have been able to visit if left to our own devices. The lunch on the "beach" was lovely and simple, and overall this tour was worth the price.

The magic of the fjords - A tour through the northern fjords in a mini van, at a slow and relaxing pace, leaving you lulled by the magic of the places.
We made various stops in the most emblematic places of the route and Bart accompanied us throughout the adventure, telling us the details of both the natural formations and the local culture, with sympathy, kindness and originality.
An absolutely satisfying experience.
Thanks Bart and congratulations on the choice of music during the roadtrip ;-)

Great tour of Kvaloya - Anthony was a very fun and kind tour guide! He brought us to lots of great spots around the island of Kvaloya. Then at the end we had some sandwiches and warm drinks, all of which were vegan friendly! He got lots of great photos of the scenery and us and shared them with by the next day.

All smiles! - Everything about the trip was great😇😇😇.
Firstly our guide: Antony. He was all smiles. Brings not only good energy and interesting facts, but also homemade sandwiches and biscuits. And the hot chocolate was on point. So special thanks to you, Antony!(from the company of Helena)
Secondly, the tour we made - out of this world. Everything was so scenic, so pristine.
We saw deers🦌. When they say once in a lifetime, that's it.
And lastly, the photos - superb👌

Great trip - Great trip. The host was very knowledgable and took us to some great spots. There was no pressure to move on quickly and he took some amazing pics. We were lucky enough to see some moose, reindeer, eagles and seals. We all really enjoyed the day and would definitely recommend the trip and the company.
