About this tour

Private Full Day Hellesylt Highlights is built for cruise passengers who want the widest scenic canvas in a single port day. The route strings together Oldedalen Valley, Briksdal Glacier, Loen Lake, and historic farmsteads with unhurried private transport.

This premium full-day tour requires at least eight hours ashore and suits guests who would rather invest one long Hellesylt call in comprehensive scenery than split time between multiple shorter excursions.
