This tour will go in rain or shine. In the winter months, it can happen that the sea freezes in the innermost part of the fjord where there is a lot of fresh water mixed with the sea water, brackish water. If there is so much ice that there is no safe passage for boats, the captain will then choose an alternative route in this area. This is beyond our control and it does not give grounds for claiming a refund for the trip. We will always do our best to give our customers great experiences, even on days when the forces of nature are not easy to handle.

Osterfjorden is a fjord in Vestland county. The fjord is one of three fjords surrounding the island of Osterøy. The fjord runs along the municipal border of Lindås and Osterøy municipalities. The fjord begins at the Romarheimsfjorden and flows to the west for 27 kilometres (17 mi) before ending near the village of Knarvik at the confluence of four fjords: Osterfjorden, Radfjorden (to the north), Sørfjorden (to the south), and Salhusfjorden (to the west). The Osterfjorden is generally about 1 to 3 kilometres (0.62 to 1.86 mi) wide and the deepest point in the fjord reaches a depth of 639 metres (2,096 ft) below sea level
Canalized river with tidal water deep into the Osterfjord. The stream is about 600 metres long and between 50 and 60 meters wide at the most narrow place. Mostraumen was canalized (dredged) about 1913.

I would not say this was a very exciting nor entertaining cruise. Most of the view was of rolling countyside, although pretty, not particularly unique nor interesting. There was some recorded, sporadic audio but nothing educational. After at least 1.5 hrs, we arrived at the rock walls with a waterfall, did a u-turn and headed back. The next day we drove to Oslo. That scenery was much more impressive! We felt like the cruise was a waste of 3+ hours of our vacation time in Bergan. The ship was clean and comfortable; a pleasant ride if you don't have anything better to do.

It is very rainy in Bergen and the surrounding areas but don't let this stop you. The rain comes and goes. During our trip the weather ranged from just cloudy, to heavy rain to sunshine. The boat we traveled on had plenty of room inside and there were huge windows on either side ant at the front of the boat. There was also plenty of room outside when we wanted to be outside. There were times when it seemed like you could just reach out a tough the cliffs plunging into the sea, This 4 hour trip was well worth doing. I'd
