Wondering which fjord to choose? We had the same question when planning our stay in the capital of the fjords, so you\u2019re in the right place! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>A fjord cruise is definitely a must-do during your stay in Bergen. Here\u2019s all the information you need to plan and book your boat trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our best fjord cruise from Bergen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are several options for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pourquoi-pas-nous.com\/en\/fjords-bergen\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"53552\">visiting the fjords from Bergen<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>There are 2 fjords near Bergen:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Osterfjord<\/li>\n<li>Sognefjord <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Here\u2019s the cruise we chose for a day trip from Bergen, and why we picked it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exploring Osterfjord: an unforgettable cruise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why did we choose this cruise?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Osterfjord is the <strong>easiest fjord to reach from Bergen<\/strong>. Many cruises leave Bergen harbour for the village of Mostraumen, at the far end of the fjord. We chose this option to keep the sailing time before reaching the fjord to a minimum. After 30 minutes on the water, we were already at its entrance.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n\n\n<li>The company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/stavanger-l4561\/stavanger-electric-fjord-cruise-to-lysefjord-preikestolen-t441413\/?partner_id=0LXQSML&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;cmp=stavangerpreikestolen\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.fr\/stavanger-l4561\/stavanger-croisiere-lysefjord-decouvrez-preikestolen-t441413\/?partner_id=0LXQSML&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher&amp;cmp=stavangerpreikestolen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">R\u00f8dne Fjord Cruise<\/a>, which runs the cruise, has an excellent reputation. The cruise operates in both summer and winter.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n\n\n<li>The price is reasonable for this type of activity in Norway: expect to pay around \u20ac70 per adult<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to expect on the boat trip from Bergen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We boarded a beautiful boat at Bergen harbour, near the fish market. We first admired the lovely view of the Bryggen district before setting off to explore the fjord. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Entering a fjord by boat is always an impressive experience. We felt tiny surrounded by the towering cliffs.<br \/><br \/> For <strong>3 hours 30 minutes, we sailed <\/strong>along the fjord\u2019s tranquil waters<strong>, surrounded <\/strong>by <strong>breathtaking scenery<\/strong>. This boat trip offers stunning views of Norway\u2019s natural beauty, with carefully chosen stops to admire the most impressive views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#x27a1;&#xfe0f;
