Explore one of the Hardangerfjord’s most secluded fjord branches on a guided RIB safari from Norheimsund. This small-group boat tour takes you deep into Fyksesund, a narrow and peaceful fjord arm surrounded by steep mountains and untouched nature.

We depart from Norheimsund and travel through the Hardangerfjord before entering Fyksesund, where the landscape becomes quieter and more remote. Along the way, your local captain slows down at selected points so you can enjoy the scenery and take photos. We stop outside Botnen, a historic roadless settlement, and hear stories about fjord life, culture, and local history.

Fyksesund changes character throughout the year. In spring and after rainfall, waterfalls stream down the mountainsides. In winter, many freeze into striking ice formations.

This RIB safari combines speed, comfort, and storytelling, offering a memorable fjord experience in every season.

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.

The 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

Was 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.

This 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!
