Iselin and Svein created the most special experience for my family’s four day fjord cruise. Everything exceeded our expectations, starting with the boat, which is beautiful, pristine, spacious, and extremely comfortable. Iselin was so thoughtful, knowledgeable, patient and flexible with our group of seven, including four adults, a 23 year old, 11 year old and 8 year old. We got a taste of everything we wanted, and much, much more! We enjoyed a bit of history at the Rosendal Baroniet, hikes to explore some exquisite nature (and to work off some of our excessive eating), a thrilling glacier adventure, a delicious cider tasting at a family owned, award-winning apple farm, an interactive visit to a wooden ship building museum, countless breathtaking waterfall encounters, a wonderful nature-center visit, fishing (and catching!!) in various ports, and relaxing with family on the boat. Svein could not have been a better captain and guide to the beautiful and charming fjord villages we were fortunate to visit. He made sure all our needs were met — from delicious drinks and snacks on board, to help with blankets and dishes, to adjusting the itinerary, if needed, to meet our interests and timing. We are all quite well traveled, and agree that this cruise is up there as one of the most special experiences we’ve ever had! We can’t thank you enough,...
Read moreI cannot recommend See The Fjords more highly for what to do when you visit Bergen, Norway. It was the absolute highlight of our family’s recent trip to Norway. Norway is obviously stunning and Bergen is the “gateway” and all, but to see Norway and the fjords from Seethefjord’s beautiful M/Y Iselina Bella yacht…guided by the care and smiles of Captain Svein…takes the experience to another level entirely.
Our family chose Bergen for a short get-away to get away from things and spend time together in a new and beautiful place. While in Bergen — one must see the fjords, right? So we splurged on a private tour of the fjords through See The Fjords. We chose to cruise from Bergen to Rosendal — an “all-day” experience. We were blessed with a gorgeous Spring day in May. The tour was gorgeous, as advertised, but it was the care and attention from our hosts that made the experience truly exceptional. What a day! Oysters, champagne, the occasional bier, a cruise through the Hardangerfjord, lunch at the historic Baroniet gardens in Rosendal and a plunge in the North Sea. It is a memory that we’ll cherish forever. If you have the opportunity to do the same, you should take advantage.
Thank you Iselin and Captain Svein!! ...
Read moreWe took a day cruise from Bergen to Mostraumen/Modalen in January 2023 and it was a wonderful experience. Bergen was windy and cold but “M/Y Iselina Bella” was toasty warm inside. This allowed us to enjoy the beautiful scenery in comfort. Booking and planning was arranged by Iselin who was efficient and professional. She arranged local gin, aquavit and cider to be on board so we could get authentic tastes of Norway. She also found us a fabulous restaurant for a lunch stop serving traditional deer stew. Svein the captain was warm and funny. He taught my daughter to drive the boat and encouraged us to drink up!! We got some fabulous photos and could post them to friends in real time with good wi-fi available on board. The sound system had Bluetooth so we could also play our preferred soundtracks. Even though it was chilly we could enjoy the fly deck with warm blankets provided and sheltered stops - allowing us to touch frozen waterfalls and chunks of fjord ice. Nothing was too much trouble and they catered the day to suit our needs. Thanks again...
