Hike Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock)

This excursion amid the Norway fjords isn't any ordinary hike. On the contrary, it's an adventure unto itself—a moderately difficult trek up one of the most beautiful trails in the world. And the reward, once you reach the endpoint at Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), is a viewpoint the likes of which...

Overall great trip to Norway! Tom was really great to work with, responsive and helpful with all of my questions and changes regarding the planning process. Our trip went smoothly and we really enjoyed our time. There were a few things that were slightly underwhelming that I would maybe change or want others to be aware of.

1. The Wangen Apartments in Aurland had a LOT of construction. They were paving some areas and it smelt of hot asphalt when we pulled up to the hotel so it was very off putting right from the start. I was not made aware that there was any construction going on. There was no lobby since everything was under construction. The view from the room was phenomenal, but the rooms were tiny! It would be ok for 2 people but for a family of 4 you absolutely need more space. The bedroom was extremely small no room to even walk around the bed. The mattress pads (not even a normal mattress) would slip off the bed and you could not open/close the bedroom door it was so small. The black out shades in the bedroom had huge spaces around the edges and light shown right into your eyes. There was no air or AC and it felt very hot and stuffy at times. Living rooms had no blackout shades so children sleeping on the pull out couch had a very hard time falling asleep at night. No closet or room for any luggage. Bedding felt cheap and scratchy. Overall this hotel was a disappointment and felt more budget level. I might stay here again because the view was so good, but I would wait until construction is done and I would get a much bigger room!

2. While the lunch at Mt. Ulriken was nice, I didn’t think it was a very good child friendly space, and should not be recommended for small children. It’s a very slow 3course meal and they were very slow between courses. I would only recommend this for adults. We also went to Floyen which was not recommended by Tom, but should have been as it was much better for kids since there are fantastic parks and lots to do!

Good location but very old, slightly odd hotel. Lots of stairs especially if you stay on floors 4/5. It was lard to navigate these floors with small kids and a stroller. Rooms were kid of old, and outdated, nothing special. Decent breakfast buffet but got pretty crowded. Seemed like mostly business traveler type.

Wangen Apartments by Fjord Resort
Aurland

Amazing views, but was still under construction and I was not aware. No lobby because of the construction. Very small apartment and even smaller bedrooms, just a box and a bed, and can barely get around the bed. Bed was uncomfortable with not even a real mattress. The bed pads would slide around and slip off preventing the door from opening or closing. The bed linens were cheap and scratchy. Black out shades in bedroom did nothing and let too much light in. There were no black out shades in the living room so it makes it very hard to sleep on the pull out couch. Apartment probably would have been better for only 2 people, but I would not recommend 4 (even 2 adults 2 kids was too cramped). No closet, no room for luggage, way too small! Great location and views though!

Hi Coral.

First of all, very happy to hear that the overall stay was great and that you have nice memories from the stay here.

I have talked to Wangen Apartment about the construction as we hadnt heard anything about it either, and it was a temporary construction where they were paving new asphalt that happened during your stay there so that was very unfortunate. Not sure what happened with the recpeption because it should have remained opened at their usual opening hours (from 9am to 8-10pm).
And sorry you were a bit disappointed with the room size and general quality. You had a 1 bedroom apartment which should be a good fit for families with smaller children, but the size and details like blackout curtains are well noted for future references.

I recommended Mt.Ulriken more for the food experience but based on your feedback we will re-consider this as a family option.

I found Kim Kim on Google after a search and I’m glad I went with them. Traveling with a family of 8 poses challenges and I didn’t want to participate in a tour group together with 15 other people going to the same touristy spots and following a tight schedule. Kim Kim uses local people in the country to suggest and plan an itinerary based on your preferences and comfort level. Tom was our specialist and our first trip to Norway was enjoyable and manageable on days we had to take public transportation ourselves. Some days the apartments we had were far apart ( 15 min) but that was also due to the big group size we were in and it was difficult to secure housing of that size. Most of the times, the accommodation we were given was amazing. When we needed assistance, the team was responsive via the email chat. Perhaps the only gripe was that I didn’t know the breakdown of the costs I was paying for. Only a lump sum was charged. If you want a customised itinerary with suggestions from locals and don’t want to fret over planning of all your days overseas, then give Kim Kim a try.

This company, especially Tom Christer literally made my dream come true. I had booked this trip in 2019 and had already paid a part of it. Tom, kept contact and waited for me to both manage my new work situation as well as changing finances for "4 YEARS!!!!" They kept my payment and tweaked the tour based on my new needs. I am 67 and was travelling alone in a new country I haven't experienced before. Tom (and the team when he was otherwise busy) had extremely helpful suggestions throughout the trip. I never felt alone and saw wonderful things, ate wonderful food met very interesting people on the way.

They answer every question, you feel you have your private tour guide right next to you during the trip. North Americans must be aware that Europe does not have "coffee cream" (although I found Kaffeflote from Supermarket https://meny.no/varer/meieri-egg/flote/kaffeflote/kaffeflote-10-7038010043307 😁 Hotels were quite comfy, also, North Americans pay attention single room or budget means very narrow one person bed !!! twins were really good and Norway hotels do not have Air Condition !!! This is nobody's fault but if you go in summer you can suffer a bit. The silver lining is you can open windows in Europe which we cannot in the US and Canada, hence, need AC.

I have been to Bergen Trondheim and Tromso, and although I liked all of them my favourite will always be Bergen. I will definitely come again and ask these wonderful people for a new arrangement then. I suggest if you like travelling in Norway, let them guide you without breaking your bank. Thank you very very much for this once in a lifetime trip , which will hopefully be twice or thrice in my lifetime🥰🇳🇴👍
