Tour description
Your tour starts at the Tourist Information Office in Balestrand where you meet your captain and are fitted with all the gear you need for the RIB-boat trip. After suiting up and a quick safety briefing, you are ready for a fun boat trip on the Sognefjord!
Together with your guide you head out on the fjord, through narrow straits, and reach a fantastic geographical formation, a kind of "fjord In the fjords" opens up surrounded by fantastic mountains. This is Finnabotn. Few have visited the place, but those who have, will not forget it.
There will also be several stops along the way, including Kvamsøy Island where you can see the medieval church built in the 13th century.
On each of the stops, your guide will tell you about the history of the area and supply facts about the things you will see. You will also get a good view of the village of Balestrand from the fjord, and the boat goes close to shore to inspect the dragon and Swiss-style villas and Kviknes Hotel.
