Duration: 1 hours

Imagine gliding across the pristine waters of the Nordfjord in Olden on a Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB), surrounded by towering mountains and cascading waterfalls. The one-hour daily adventure begins with a safety briefing and an introduction to the stunning natural scenery you'll encounter. As the boat accelerates, you feel the thrill of speed while taking in panoramic views of lush green hillsides, quaint villages, and the majestic fjord stretching endlessly ahead.

The skilled captain navigates the RIB close to sheer cliffs where waterfalls plunge directly into the fjord, offering a closer look at these natural wonders. As the boat slows, the guide shares stories of the region’s rich history, including tales of ancient glaciers that carved out the fjord and the Viking heritage that still echoes in the area.

You might spot seabirds soaring overhead or seals basking on rocky outcrops, adding a touch of wildlife magic to the experience. The ride is exhilarating, yet there are moments of calm where you can truly appreciate the silence and beauty of the fjord. The combination of speed, scenery, and storytelling makes this RIB tour an unforgettable way to experience the breathtaking landscapes of Olden and the Nordfjord.
