“Had a great time. The hike took 30-40 mins. Can be a bit of a steep incline but the view is worth it. We had plenty of time to see the glacier, eat, and visit the gift shop. Very knowledgeable tour guide. The bus space was tight but it was a double decker”
Review of Flam’s 90-minute Stegastein tour, with fjord views, narrow mountain roads, cruise-port pickup, pricing, and booking tips.

It was a bit expensive but the group was small, there was no commentary nor fun facts at the location or from the driver. This is something I would definitely do if I was trying by car”
