Norway Ports

[TGR4ME]

We are cruising the Norwegian fjords with Princess in June and are wondering about ship excursions. 1) In Hellesylt we were considering the bus ride to Mt. Dalsnibba with stryn Lake and waterfall view. Looks like we can see the same thing in Geiranger? Private companies? I saw that the ship cruises the Geiranger fjord, so maybe we don't need an expensive excursion in either port. 2) do we need the ship tour in Stavanger or does the ship cruise that fjord as well? 3) can we do Bergen and Flam on our own?

 

Thanks for any help you seasoned guys could give us!

Does your ship drop off passenger then move from Hellslyt to Geiranger ?

or visa versa

Usually a service call there just drop passenger for the tour

You see differnt views on the tour than you will going in or out of the Fjord

 

Stavenger if you want to see pulpit rock I would do a tour either via the ship or look for a private one in advance

 

Bergen you can DIY

 

Flam it depends on how long your ship stays there ...some move to another port after dropping of passengers for the train

 

 

You can get more info on the Northern Europe forum

Because all the ports are so small you can do all of them on your own but if you want to explore further afield you need a tour of some kind.

 

To get to stavanger it isn't much of a fjord compared to others such as geiranger. You will see all of the fjord on the ship but a tour may show you a different aspect
