Fjord tourism is among the more popular forms of cruise tourism. Not very surprising, given that staying on oversized ships is actually quite long-winded and pretty boring, and fjords add a bit of drama. The two destinations on the list, Flåm and Geiranger, are both on the same fjord. Flåm is part of a packaging deal,
Norway in a Nutshell, where you mix/match the railroad between Oslo and Bergen, the connecting
Flåm line railroad to Flåm, terminus and port, cruise ships, bus, or bicycle. Then you take plane home from either Bergen or Oslo. You spend a weekend or a week, and you have "done" Norway. Next year New Zealand.
