Olden: Rib Boat Sightseeing on the Fjord

About this activity

Glide across the calm waters of the Nordfjord on a one-hour RIB tour. After a short safety briefing, set off with your local captain to explore Olden’s stunning fjord landscape. Cruise past towering mountains, lush green hillsides, and small villages, with plenty of time to take in the peaceful surroundings.

Approach steep cliffs where waterfalls cascade directly into the fjord, offering a close-up view of these natural highlights. The pace is relaxed, with only gentle acceleration, allowing you to enjoy the silence, fresh air, and scenery. You may spot seabirds or even a seal along the shoreline, though wildlife is never guaranteed.

Perfect for cruise guests, our base is just a 1–2 minute walk from the ship with no transport needed. Tours are timed around cruise schedules to ensure you return well before departure, and if your ship does not dock in Olden, you’ll receive a full refund.
