“For the Flam Railway, it was quite a rainy day, however, we could see some of the beautiful sights on the train. The Fjord Cruise part was incredible. The low hanging clouds (it had stopped raining) made the views that much more breathtaking. Just BEAUTIFUL! The bus and train connection to Bergen went smoothly. Worth it.”
