Bergen Shore Excursion: Waterfalls, Fjords & City Market

1. Cruise Terminal Bergen

Your unforgettable Bergen shore excursion begins right at the cruise ship port, where our friendly team will greet you just outside the terminal. You'll then step aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned bus and set off on a picturesque journey through Norway's stunning landscapes.

Our tours are meticulously scheduled to match your ship's timing, ensuring both a prompt start and a return to the port well before your departure. As you leave Bergen, watch as the urban scenery gradually gives way to magnificent fjords and verdant forests.

2. Mørkhølsfossen

Our first stop is the charming Mørkhølen Fossen waterfall. Although modest in size, this small but beautiful waterfall highlights the natural beauty of the area, with water gently flowing into a quiet pool surrounded by green trees. Mørkhølen Fossen is a hidden gem that promises to leave a lasting impression.

3. Fossen Bratte

Our next destination is just a short 5-minute drive away: Fossen Bratte, one of Norway’s most spectacular waterfalls. This impressive waterfall plunges down steep cliffs, offering a breathtaking and powerful sight.

Nestled in a scenic location, Fossen Bratte allows visitors to witness the raw force and beauty of nature up close. You can choose to walk along a gravel path to the base of the waterfall to feel its power or take the old road to the top for incredible views of the entire valley

4. Norheimsund

After exploring Fossen Bratte, we will continue our journey across a mountain plateau and through picturesque farmland, eventually arriving at the charming village of Norheimsund.

This village, with its breathtaking fjord views and quaint streets, offers a peaceful retreat. You can take a leisurely stroll through the town center, relax in cozy cafes, explore unique shops, visit a historic hotel dating back to 1857, or pick up some souvenirs.

5. Hardanger

Afterwards, we’ll drive along one of Norway’s 18 scenic routes, following the stunning Hardangerfjord. During this part of the tour, you'll get to see ancient rock carvings that are thousands of years old, revealing the rich history and culture of the area.

6. Steinsdalsfossen Waterfall

After seeing the rock carvings, we'll head to Steinsdalsfossen on our way back. This waterfall is one of Norway's most unique spots. What makes Steinsdalsfossen special is the path that lets you walk behind the waterfall, giving you a rare view from behind the rushing water.

Surrounded by lush green scenery, it's a great place for photos and enjoying nature. Standing under the rocky overhang, you'll experience the powerful rush of the water—an unforgettable sight.
