Creator's Key Takeaways

We are Paradise Falls Family - we're a family of four who love to explore the world together.

We booked the Ganger on your own by transfer cruise. This would give us a couple of hours in the town.

We'd really recommend stopping by here if you're in town.

We'd really recommend booking something though or making your way to Garanger as Helisilt is a very small village.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book excursions early, as popular times sell out quickly.
Consider local ferries as a potentially cheaper alternative to P&O transfers.
Visit Cafe Olay in Geiranger for a cozy stop with cakes and hot chocolates.
Add extra time to re-board the ship due to long queues.
