Eline Rasmussen

Hi!
My name is Eline. I grew up in the idyllic city of Krisiansand, Norway. I have lived in all three countries of Scandinavia, and I have grown to like the beautiful culture, nature and experiences the nordic countries have to offer. As I grew up in a coastal city, I got to explore the coastline of Norway by boat. I was lucky to grow up in an adventurous family who let me get to experience everything from the small islands along the coast, to fishing under the midnight sun in the northern part of Norway. Along the way, I also developed a love for skiing and hiking in the mountains.

I look foreward to use my experience and knowledge to help you plan an adventurous trip to Norway!

I am very glad that I found kimkim when deciding to visit Norway. On my own, I believe it would have proven a daunting task to plan and organize the trip. Both Eline and Fenne were great to work with. They were able to craft a trip that focused on getting a little off the beaten path and experiencing Norway up close and personal. Some of the highlights for me were ziplining in Bergen, a fjord sauna experience in Flam and a rib boat cruise in Flam into some of the most beautiful fjords... Read more

I am very glad that I found kimkim when deciding to visit Norway. On my own, I believe it would have proven a daunting task to plan and organize the trip. Both Eline and Fenne were great to work with. They were able to craft a trip that focused on getting a little off the beaten path and experiencing Norway up close and personal. Some of the highlights for me were ziplining in Bergen, a fjord sauna experience in Flam and a rib boat cruise in Flam into some of the most beautiful fjords in all of Norway. We went in early July, and because the snow was still melting, we were able to see tons of waterfalls. Our guide was very knowledgeable and eager to share about how the fjords were formed, the culture and ways of living in some of the very small towns along the edge of the fjords, as well as little anecdotes about Norway in general. Another highlight was visiting a small town called Undredal, where they make the delicious brown cheese (as well as others) that is served all over Norway. It was also great that during the trip, Julia was available to answer any questions that we had. I would highly recommend kimkim.

Hotel Review
Fretheim Hotel
Flåm

The Fretheim hotel is a charming, pretty hotel that dates back quite a way. The grounds are lovely and full of all types of flowers along with a little pebble walkway through the grass. The lobby has a nice array of comfortable chairs and large windows that allow for a nice view of the water and that bring in lots of natural light. The restaurant had an abundance of food and drink options as well as courteous, cheerful staff. The concierge was very helpful as well. The room had its own little balcony that allowed for a nice view of the water. Overall, it was a great place to stay in Flam.

The planning process was done well in advance with Eline. She was open to our requests and made the changes to adjust the program according to our preferences.
However, a few things could be improved which worth to be mentioned in favor of future travelers.
1. The lodging in Flam was sold out at the time of our planning, back in April, therefore we were booked in a Gudvangen hotel, 20 km away from Flam by road. After about a 7-hour (amazing) train journey, we realized would have to travel...

The planning process was done well in advance with Eline. She was open to our requests and made the changes to adjust the program according to our preferences.
However, a few things could be improved which worth to be mentioned in favor of future travelers.
1. The lodging in Flam was sold out at the time of our planning, back in April, therefore we were booked in a Gudvangen hotel, 20 km away from Flam by road. After about a 7-hour (amazing) train journey, we realized would have to travel to the hotel, check-in and return the morning after to Flam to board the fjord cruise before 9:00 am. Then, sailing to... Gudvangen and back to Flam where the cruise ended. Now what? Take the bus to return once again to Gudvangen hotel and back to Flam in the morning. Five times doing the travelling between both sites, twice by boat, three more by road.
Thanks to Julia, the "emergency girl", who found a (tiny) accommodation for 2 nights in Flam, a last minute and very welcomed option to the original plan.
2. We were not given the option to fly from Bergen to Oslo (50') instead of 7 hs by train. It was our last day in Norway, what means we missed half day we could use in Oslo. A point to be considered as well.
Otherwise, everything worked to perfection. Tickets, reservations, suggestions, places, not a single problem arise.
All in all, we are happy we have planned this trip with The Kim Kim team.
