“Foi uma experiência incrível. A estação tridimensional te remete a um navio vicking muito realístico. Me senti realizada. Valeu bastante a visita. Mesmo que rápida, pois tinha pouco tempo disponível para o passeio.”
Bergen day trip with Njardarheimr Viking Village, UNESCO Nærøyfjord cruise, Tvindefossen waterfall, and the Flåm Railway back to Bergen.
“The minibus was very comfortable and Geir was an excellent driver and a very informative guide. Adding personal experiences to his commentary gave more insight into the Norwegian way of life. He left us at the Viking Village but gave us very clear instructions for boarding the boat for the fjord cruise and the Flam and Bergen trains. A guided tour of the Viking Village is included in the price. It is optional but well worth joining as you only have a limited time in the village. The boat was a lot bigger than I expected. There was plenty of inside seating but, as it was a fine, sunny day…”
Sail Bergen harbor on a Viking-style longship replica with Captain Zach and small groups, possible fishing, and stories in 90 minutes.
“We enjoyed our time on this true Viking replica boat. As a sailor, it was interesting to see the way Viking boats sailed. We enjoyed fishing (and caught several mackerels) If you want, you can also get involved on the hoisting of the sails accompanied by Viking songs. It was 90 minutes, which is the right amount of time.”
2-hour Haugesund e-bike tour with Viking landmarks and Kvalsvik Sculpture Park’s The Rising Tides, led by a small local team.
“Great trip, well organised. The guide Elgan was superb and very informative. Loved the trip even though we got soaked. Weather is unpredictable so be prepared. I would highly recommend this trip”
Haugesund Viking cruise: sail to Avaldsnes Viking Farm and visit the digital Viking Planet museum, guided for families.
“The Viking farm was very informative but we only had about 20 mins to look around - which was fine as there wasn't much to see to be honest. I was expecting more exploration and hands on activities. Our guide was brilliant on the boat trip which was interesting and with beautiful scenery. The Viking planet was very small and totally digital. Really expensive for what was in there and we were done in about 40 mins. Again, I was hoping for more. Quite a disappointing day out really”
Winter Viking Village in Njardarheimr, electric-boat cruise on Nærøyfjord, and the Flåm Railway from Bergen, all in one day.
“Activités magnifique du début à la fin! Notre guide Bjarte était excellent: il nous a expliqué plein de faits intéressants sur la Norvège et la région. Les paysages étaient spectaculaires et l’organisation -parfaite, comme d’habitude en Norvège”
Climb the Viking Wall via ferrata in Bodø, Norway, from sea level to 57 m with safety gear, ocean views, and an English guide.
“Very nice climb above the sea, the holds make it easy enough so anyone could climb it but you can challenge yourself by holding on to the rock. The guide was very friendly and had some good stories. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun outdoor Experience near Bodø!”

Oslo’s Viking Planet is a digital Viking museum with longships, holograms, 3D artifacts, free Wi-Fi, lockers, and optional VR.
