We booked this cruise for July this year, with my husband and two kids. Started cruising from Bergen about 10 AM, and took it nice and easy down the fjords and archipelago near Bergen, untill we reached Rosendal after about 3,5 hours. Walked up to the Baroniet castle, for lunch in the garden (garden cafeteria). Fantastic atmosphere there!
Continued cruising after lunch, went to the waterfall called Furebergsfossen. Amazing.
After that we cruised to Jondal village, a tiny place, but with one exceptional hotel, with a restaurant for dinner. We slept over in the boat after dinner.
We organized our own breakfast the next morning, and then the cruise-company car piced us up to go to the Folgefonna glacier. Amazing drive up to about 1200 meters above the fjord, where we arrived at the glacier. Great view up there, and a glacier was also a new experience to us. Stayed there for a couple of hours, and had lunch at the new cafeteria up there. Drove back down, and then crossed the Hardanger Fjord with a ferry. Took the car back to Bergen, with a few stops underway, amongst other the Steinsdalsfossen waterfall, where you can follow the path behind the waterfall, and dont get wet. Try it!!
We loved the two-day experience, and are quite sure we will come back to Norway for more.
Thanks
