We loved this self-guided tour. This was really nothing more than having someone else buy you train, bus, and ferry tickets but it was nice to not have to worry about coordinating the timing since there are a lot of transfers. The communication from TripAdvisor was great. They sent instructions ahead of time and contact us before the trip to make sure we have everything we need.
The views from the train and ferry were absolutely amazing. The only reason for the 4 stars is because we did our tour on a Sunday and by the time we got to Bergen, everything was closed. It was still nice to walk around the town but I wish we would’ve gotten a heads up instead of being a little disappointed with the “grand finale”.
We’re also so glad we opted for the sleeper car on the train ride back to Oslo. It was so nice to be able to lay down and sleep after a whole day of traveling.
