Experience the hidden jewel of the Hardangerfjord with our exhilarating RIB safari through the breathtaking Fyksesund fjord branch. Nestled amidst towering mountainsides and adorned with cascading waterfalls.
Starting from Norheimsund, our RIB sets sail south through the strait and east along the main Hardangerfjord, leading you to the entrance of the Fyksesund fjord. As you venture into the last 5 km of this 10 km long fjord branch, you'll feel as if you've stepped back in time, surrounded by untouched beauty. Our journey culminates with a stop outside the old roadless hamlet of Botnen, adding a touch of historic charm to your adventure.
Throughout the tour, our knowledgeable local captain and guides will make several stops, allowing you to take in the beautiful landscapes. They will also share fascinating insights into the fjord's rich history and vibrant culture.

What To Expect
The Samlafjord is a wider section of the Hardangerfjord with great view towards the mountains and small villages along the fjord.
Kvamsøy has a weather station from the Meteorological Institute that sends weather data four times a day to the entire world, a so-called synoptic station. The weather station is located at Austerhaugen. There is also a small beacon, which is still in operation, on this mound. There are several burial mounds on both Kvamsøy and Tjuvholmen, and bus discoveries have been made from both the Bronze Age and the Iron Age, between other parts of a bronze ax.

5.00The best excursion of our Bergen trip. Thor was an amazing guide. The RIB was exciting and his stories intriguing. It was very exciting between hit the waves full on and doing circles at speed on the lakes. But then tranquil passing under the trickle of the waterfalls up close. Would highly recommended
Awesome

5.00Was a great experience the guide/boat driver was gun and informative. Super nice. You wear a full warm suit and life vest and goggles so you stay warm and enjoy the experience. Recommend bringing a clear phone case around the neck to be able to take pictures throughout the experience with no fear of losing it.
Great experience

5.00This is such a great tour. Our boat guide was super friendly and pointed out sites along the way that were places my husband's ancestors once lived. The boat is a blast and he has a bit of fun with its power, but safely. Book today - really. You'll love it!
100% recommendation!!
