Exceptional guide made this a memorable trip.

Susan_S, Aug 2025
Our family was in Bergen for just a few days and we wanted to maximize our stay with a visit to the glacier. We booked this trip with Vlad who was an exceptional guide/driver. His communication prior to our visit was professional and responsive and helped us plan our time efficiently. His knowledge of Bergen and Norway was exceptional and his heartfelt love of Norway was wonderful. During our trip he enthusiastically pointed out stunning scenery and personalized our trip so we could stop and take photos while also keeping us on schedule since he was so familiar with the country. He made this such an exceptional day for our family and went well out of his way to make this such a special trip for which we are grateful.

Dear Susan, Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with us. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon! Sincerely, Vlad

Vlad is Your Man!

Our day with Vlad was the highlight of our visit in Norway. He was a great guide, driver and talented photographer! We saw so many beautiful, non-touristy places! Don’t hesitate booking a day trip with him!

Response from Host, Sep 2024
