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!!

Great day with Vlad. He is very knowledgeable and accommodating. We are a family of four with young adult children. Unexpected highlight was lunch on the fjords at a 400 year old farm. Beautiful scenery around every turn. Be prepared for a lot of time in the van as you cover many miles on narrow roads. Thanks again Vlad!

This tour is more than worth your money. Our tour guide, Vlad, was an excellent host. He was energetic and knowledgeable and helpful served us some warm Norwegian drinks which were excellent. The trip itself covers the most important areas in and around Bergen and you see the most beautiful sights. Highly recommend this one.

My husband and I spent several days with Jandis Tours and Vlad gave us an experience of a lifetime!! We went in May when all the trees and flowers (especially the rhododendron) were in bloom and the snow still covered the mountain tops. It was so beautiful everywhere you looked! We toured the King of fjords, Queen of fjords, Folgefonna glacier, a RIB boat to see the highlights of Norway, white water rafting in Voss, a floating sauna in Bergen where we jumped in the frigid water, a few hikes and more. Vlad is so passionate and knowledgeable about Norway. He knows exactly where to go to see the most spectacular views and where all the extra hidden gems are. His main focus was to give us the best experience possible. Whether it was resting when we needed to or going the extra mile, he was accommodating and attentive to our needs. Our vacation would not have been near as fulfilling without booking Jandis Tours with Vlad. I cannot recommend him enough!

In fifteen years of traveling together, this private tour to the Sognefjord region of Western Norway was one of the most memorable and best days my wife and I have ever had on vacation together. Vlad created a day that we will never forget. One could search the world for a better guide, but no one will be found that is better than Vlad. He made the day so memorable for us and so very special. My wife and I had permanent smiles on our faces for the duration of our tour and journey with Vlad. The moments created by Vlad and JANDIS AS for my wife and me were very much appreciated, special, and unique. In the days that have followed our private tour, I am still in awe of all that Vlad created and shared with us to see and experience on our private tour. Vlad expertly tailored our private tour to be exactly what we wanted and so much more. We could not have dreamed up a better experience. Our expectations were far exceeded. We only wish that Vlad could be our guide at every location around the world that we hope to discover in the years ahead. Vlad is like Michael Jordan...he is incomparable and the absolute very best! With Vlad and JANDIS AS, you will have an incredible experience that will produce a day full of outstanding memories that you will cherish forever!

Our guide, Vlad was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend for anyone interested in learning about the history and natural beauty of Norway. He went out of his way to make sure we had a memorable experience.

Jana was a great guide. She was very kind. We enjoyed learning about Norway and seeing beautiful waterfalls and scenic views. I am so glad we booked this excursion with Jandis.

Our driver was wonderful. Showed up early for our 3:30am pickup. Pointed out the sights we passed as we drove to the Bergen airport. A+ all the way.
