Creator's Key Takeaways

the ship itself is very slick modern and comfortable with no reserve seating just take what you can

the views are quite amazing actually but you can't move about the train as much or stand outside

small as flum is it's an inviting and beautiful place that can warrant a second trip

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book everything in advance as tours, ferries, buses, and trains will be close to capacity on arrival
Get in line early to snag a seat on the right side going up the Flamsbana Railway
Go as cheap as you can on food and save the big meals for the ship

YouTube Video Description

This port report is from Flam, Norway, where we sailed with Holland America Cruise Line. We cover the port basics and our experience touring this small jumping off point to the “Norway In A Nutshell”. We cruise an all-electric ship from Flam to Gudvangen along the narrow and beautiful Naeroyfjord. Back in town, we then take the Flamsbana Railway to the mysterious waterfall of Kjosfossen, then to the top at Myrdal. We cover your options at port as well, such as the Emobilty car rental service and the Flam Railway Museum. Let’s get the lowdown!

We found that many videos lack the details we needed, such as parking, restrooms, available services, and even sidewalk quality. We act as your “port scout”, providing first-hand reports on essential information that others overlook; our videos cover port terminals, independent excursions, goods, services, transportation and even ship tours. With time ticking away during your port visit, we understand the importance of sound planning to make every moment count. Let us give you the Lowdown!
