We did the 12.10pm from Balestrand tour. The boat was great we had lovely weather and the commentary was not constant, interesting, and not cheesy/corny - all pluses for us. We had not bought the glacier part as we intended to get the public bus (line805) from Fjaerland wharf to the glacier viewing point (you don’t go to the actual glacier on this route). You can buy the bus ticket on the skyss billett app (Zone J). Only problem is the public bus and the tour bus for this company are one and the same so the bus waits about an hour at the Museum which we didn’t really want to go to (but you could have bought an entry to the museum if you wanted). Then goes on to the glacier viewpoint where you have about 20-25 minutes. Personally I would rather have only gone to the glacier and have spent the hour wandering around Fjaerland village. But other than private car this bus seems to be the only way to get to the glacier viewpoint.
