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.

5.00Was 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.
Waterfalls galore!

5.00This was an absolute blast! The weather was inclement but the tour operator outfitted us head to toe. We were warm and comfortable. The boat took us along the fjord and got us up close and personal with many waterfalls. Our guide said “More rain, more waterfalls,” and boy did we see our share! This is a fantastic tour I would highly recommend for adventurers of any age.
Perfect Combo Trip
