Your 10-hour adventure begins at the starting point in Voss, where you'll be greeted by your experienced guide and driver. You and your group will set off towards the village of Vik and its stunning mountainous landscapes. Along the way, you'll stop at the Storesvingen viewpoint, known for its incredible panoramic vistas. Next, you'll visit the historic Hopperstad Stave Church with a local guide. Constructed in 1130, it is one of the oldest stave churches in existence.
Then, you'll arrive at Vik Harbour, where you'll board a boat for a 2-hour fjord cruise to the picturesque village of Fjærland. You'll cross over Sognefjorden, the longest and deepest fjord in Norway. Take in the breathtaking views while enjoying a delicious lunch onboard (not included in the ticket price).
