Although there are various ways to do this, we chose one that was not one of the "packages". We took the 830 am bus from Bergen central terminal (platform O, you can pay by credit card on the bus -- bus is very comfortable and has a toilet) to Gunvagnen and electric ferry to Flam. We then took the ferry Flam to Bergen. A long but spectacular day.

The Fjord – zero emission classic vessel, that operates on electricity is the best way to sail through the narrow passages between the fjords. Being electrically operated, there is no sound or vibration in the vessel, which makes the sailing so serene that one falls in love with this place and doesn’t want the journey to end. The vessels docks at small villages which are nothing short of fairy land with coloured roofs in the foreground and the white snow peaks in the background. Some of the passages are so narrow, that you literally feel the mountain falling on you. This is a must must do if you are in Norway. It’s a journey that you need to experience, otherwise you have missed out the best part of Norway.
