Creator's Key Takeaways

Watching the ship glide through the water surrounded by the mountains was just one of my favorite moments of the whole cruise.

The scenery around the Bickster Glassia is absolutely stunning and the chalk cars make it much more accessible, especially if you don't fancy the longer walk.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Set an alarm to watch the ship sail into the fjords.
Take a photo of the departure times at the excursion desk to have them handy.
Try to be at the front of the queue for the troll cars if you want your family to sit together.
Follow the signs for the glacier rather than the walking trail to avoid a longer route.
Bring warm clothing as it can be incredibly windy near the glacier.

Join me for our day in Olden, Norway during our P&O Arvia Norwegian Fjords cruise 🚢🇳🇴 We visited the famous Briksdal Glacier using the Troll Cars and are sharing my honest experience from booking the excursion, the journey there, what the Troll Cars are like, how much walking is involved and whether we think it’s worth doing. We also show our sail into Olden Fjord, exploring the port afterwards and the incredible Olden sailaway where locals waved flags and played music as Arvia left the harbour.
