1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
One particular highlight was driving along designated scenic routes. Not only is the landscape magnificent but viewing points, toilets and cafes have been provided.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Norwegians are very friendly and there seems to be a special relationship between Norway and the UK. There are several memorials marking the help given by Britain during WW2 and almost all Norwegians speak excellent English.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Tourism is an important industry for Norway. The countryside in particular is well looked after with almost no litter which tends to generate a caring response from tourists.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
We had a very good holiday but with hindsight we realise that we probably tried to do too much in the time available.Maxine Hayes review 31 Jul 2023
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
I loved the express boat trip from Balestrand to Bergen. The weather wasn't great but the scenery was beautiful. The rail journey from Oslo to Flåm was also spectacular, it was a shame we missed the boat connection to Balestrand from Flåm as I expect that was beautiful too.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Get a later train from Oslo and stay the night in Flåm, and get the boat to Balestrand the next day. Is saves you carrying around your luggage whilst waiting for the boat, and if your connection is late (as ours was) it means you don't have to take a long taxi ride by road and ferry (subject to availability).3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
I really enjoyed it, the Norwegian people were lovely.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
