I am working on my shore excursions and thinking of the following for Flam
It is named "Full Day Tour by Train & Coach"
It is actually 6 hours long and will cost me over $300 even with my discounts. For me, that is a splurge but I am able to do it because I will be not booking excursions at some other ports.
This excursion is listed as moderate but I believe that it will not present. a problem for me.
"Embark the bus (from Flam) and go for a scenic drive to Voss where you will enjoy a lunch before embarking on the train. The first part of the train ride is on the Bergen Line to Myrdal, then you descend on the world-famous Flam Line, it’s only 12.5 miles/20 km long, but is a masterpiece of engineering and offers one of the most dramatic train rides in Europe. The valley is very narrow and steep, located between towering mountains covered by snow and ice. The train makes a stop at the impressive Kjos Waterfall where you’ll have time to take photos. The train will take you down to the Flam Railway station, located near your ship’s pier."
I called Shore Excursions and was told that we would be having lunch at the Stalheim Hotel although that could change by the time of the tour.
I have been doing my research and watching youtube videos but I was wondering how The Forum feels about this excursion. I know that some members have been to Flam and also Voss. I know that some of you might know the hotel where I am having lunch.
The youtube videos are beautiful.
