Finding Jandis was a blessing for us because our family only has a few short days in Bergen and specific things we wanted to do and see. Vlad is very responsive in his reply and very flexible to accommodate a customized private trip for us. He goes the extra mile by preparing nice warm drinks, snacks and fruits which are much needed. Vlad is enthusiastic in sharing his knowledge and goes beyond by bringing us to places less seen. We feel safe and comfortable throughout the whole trip. Thank you Vlad.

My wife and I recently took the "Queen of the Fjords Private Guided Tour," and it was one of the most memorable experiences we've ever had. From start to finish, everything about this tour was thoughtfully curated, making us feel immersed in Norway's breathtaking beauty and rich history. Our guide was fantastic – knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the region, providing fascinating insights into each location we visited. He knew all the best spots for photos and even arranged unique experiences, like a stop to try Norwegian mulled wine, "Glogg," prepared from his home, which was a lovely and personal touch. The itinerary took us through some of the most scenic landscapes in Norway. We visited stunning lakes, iconic waterfalls like the "Bride's Veil," and charming historical sites. Each spot was more beautiful than the last, with plenty of time to soak in the views, take photos, and truly enjoy the moment. We even had the rare chance to spot wild swans on a lake, which felt like a scene straight out of a fairytale! The tour's pace was perfect – never rushed, yet packed with sights and experiences. Driving across the fjords was mesmerizing, and the photo stops were well-chosen, allowing us to capture the essence of Norway’s natural wonders. This tour was everything we hoped for and more. Whether you're a nature lover, a photography enthusiast, or just looking to experience Norway's majestic landscapes, the Queen of the Fjords Tour is an absolute must. We left with memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommended!

Cannot say enough about Vlad and our day to see the Hardanger Fjord and lots more. Vlad is so knowledgeable about all that we saw during the day and shared his love and knowledge of Norway, its history, geography and culture with us. You will come away from this tour with great memories and a great understanding and knowledge about Norway, its people and its beauty. Thank you Vlad for a great day - it was so much more than we could have expected!

Excellent trip. Lots of wonderful views ,Vlad was very knowledgeable and took us to view some amazing places of outstanding beauty Thank you Vlad.

Excellent day tour with our guide Vlad who was very knowledgeable, providing historical insight and taking us to the most amazing locations with stunning views. This was the highlight of our short stay in Bergen. Thank you.

This was such a good trip. I recommend it. We saw so much and Vlad was so knowledgable. It was totally worth the money. Virtually every part of the trip had amazing scenery.

Great way to see the Fjords, “Wow” that’s what I found myself saying a lot on this trip. Vlad was the perfect host and looked after us really well. Would definitely recommend this trip.

Vlad was super attentive, knowledgeble and is responsive to our needs. Would encourage anyone who wants an overview of what norway has to offer to go on this tour (esp since u dont have to be the one driving). You will be able to see fjords, fauna...fish..etc. vlad was also super sweet to have prepared fruits, biscuits and ginger tea for us, where we enjoyed them on the car ferry ride.

We were able to see several Bergen highlights during our tour but were cut a little short on time because their. previous tour ran long and we had an all aboard time to meet. I recommend doing your research ahead to let them know where you want to go so they can tailor your tour to you. I also suggest a 4 hour tour to not feel as rushed. Vlad was very informative and knew Bergen well. He did make the most of our time!

We were on a cruise and had 1 day to see Bergen. Another couple from the cruise found Jandis Tours and we decided to join them on this private tour. Vlad was the driver and guide and he was wonderful! Vlad did a great job of showing us so many things. We even had lunch at this beautiful cafe that his friend owns and operates. The food, scenery and staff were wonderful. I highly recommend Jandis Tours and Vlad for any tour in Norway. We were even able to provide Vlad with some history from Columbus, Ohio (Ohio State University)! Vlad is wonderful!

I went on a solo trip to Norway this past June & I found this trip on Viator. This was the most amazing part of my trip. Vlad is one of the kindest, most generous people I have ever met. Being a woman solo on a trip & then taking a private tour, I felt comfortable from the first greeting. He is extremely knowledgeable about the region & it's history & he prepared so many resources for me to look at during the drive to each destination (maps, books, pictures, descriptions), it was very thoughtful & made me feel well cared for. The drive was extremely luxurious in his Tesla & he thought of everything, right down to bringing snacks & his homemade glog & had bottles of water on hand for me. He even played music well fitted to whatever environment we were driving through, very magical & serene. I highly recommend going on any of the tours with Vlad & his wife Jana's company. It was worth every penny & I visited the most beautiful places I could ever imagine with a knowledgeable guide all in one day. I will definitely be back to Norway & will take another tour with these wonderful people. Thank you Vlad for the most amazing experience!

Simply put, Vlad is an exceptional tour guide and an even better person - you will be in great hands with him and Jandis. Our group of 7 (4 adults, 3 kids) had a fantastic 4 days with Vlad touring Bergen and surrounding areas, including Flam, Myrdal, Voss, Gudvgagen, Folgifonna Glacier, Fossen Bratte, Stegastein, and many other highlights. We are frequent travelers and I can say without hesitation that Vlad is one of the best tour guides we have come across. He clearly loves what he does and brings a great deal of enthusiasm for his country and for ensuring that his clients have a great experience. Everything started with great communication before the trip - Vlad helped come up with a plan for how to best spend our 4 days (patiently talking us through a variety of options) and then helped arrange for train and ferry tickets in advance. Once we arrived in Bergen, Vlad handled all of the logistics and allowed us to focus on the sights and enjoying ourselves. We traveled around in his very clean and comfortable Mercedes van. While we had plans in advance, Vlad was great about being flexible and making changes real-time as needed to accommodate changes in the weather, "hangry" or tired kids, or any number of circumstances. He also helped us pick routes/approaches that avoided the throngs of cruise ship passengers. Particularly memorable was our drive up to Folgifonna Glacier, where we were the only people anywhere in the vicinity. I could go on and on, but perhaps I'll just close on this thought: if you are planning a trip to Norway, stop all of your research and just email Vlad now and book him for whatever days you're lucky enough to be able to tour with him. You won't regret it. Thank you Vlad for a wonderful trip -- we look forward to seeing you again when the kids are older!

We had a great day in Bergen with Vlad and Anna. Our family group was ages 16-86. The process and communication for booking and payment of our tour was easy. Vlad and Anna met us at our hotel and accommodated our luggage easily in the comfortable vans they had arranged. Our day was packed with sightseeing and education on the area's past history and current history with any topic we wanted to ask about into between. Vlad is so enthusiastic and really tries very hard to make each experience perfect. He was also able to help work around the various mobility challenges we had with the older family members. The day really was great.

Our private guide Vlad was absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable, played us relaxing music in his beautiful Tesla and treated us to nice cookies and Glogg on the Ferry. Trip advisor only allowed 5 stars, but Vlad was 10!

This tour was incredible! I cannot recommend it enough!! Vlad was so kind and knowledgeable! We had ages 2-72 and Vlad kept everyone involved! Any recommendation Vlad makes, take it!!
