5.00It was so fun to meet Tom and his family at the farm and feed the goats! Great way to see a bit of authentic Norway and the apple cake was delicious. Perfect excursion for our three generation family!
Great vistas

5.00We were incredibly pleased with this lovely experience. A 15 min car drive up to a beautiful viewpoint where you then walk 10 min to the farm (easy hike but there were lots of steps/some steap parts if that’s relevant to you). The farm was INCREDIBLE. We got to play fetch with the sheep dog on the top of the mountains - something that will forever be ingrained in my mind. We saw the sheep getting called in to eat & even got to hold a baby lamb. Tom was excellent and did a great job of keeping everyone engaged while we learned about Norway wildlife. The first review said it right - a true gem!!!!!!
