One way to improve this tour is to give some information about what to do. The instructions on getting on the boat to start the tour were okay. There were two options and we were able to figure out which boat to step on with some investigation. From that point on, you are on your own without any idea; ( including asking and getting help from knowledgeable officials ). Where we ended up, we were fortunately able to catch a cab, and an expensive one at that, to get us back on a boat to where we were able to return to Bergen.
The captain of the boat we were able to catch explained to us that he was well aware of this particular tour operator; and although he didn’t like to bad mouth tours because he works with them; he admitted that this tour company had no idea what they were doing; and that it wasn’t uncommon for people to get lost on their tour and stranded.
The boat captain himself offered us, graciously, to book us on an appropriate tour the following day; but we were leaving Bergen.
No wonder this was the only last minute boat tour available, and mysteriously there were no reviews.
I asked to be refunded due to the entire day being ruined and because we were already out a lot of money, due to being stranded and having to find cabs back to points where we could get back to Bergen. We were turned down; but we’re offered to go on another tour gratis the next day.
NO THANKS!!
We were leaving Bergen the next day; but; even if we were staying, I would never risk repeating the miserable experience we had just endured.
This tour operation is either grossly incompetent, or perhaps just a scam to collect $. Either way, Tour Advisor needs to remove this tour from their site if they want to be a reliable source of information, and this tour management needs to be out of business.
I have taken many many tours advised by Trip Advisor and have never been disappointed, including the city walking tour of Bergen and the mountain hiking tour, all 5 stars. Beware of tour with no reviews, hopefully this review gets posted and serves as a warning to future patrons
