Definite must do experience - We were fortunate to go on this trip on a lovely day. It was wonderful with breathtaking scenery. In our mind, we preferred it to the Flam railway although to be fair, that day was rainy and overcast. We found the story of the Norwegians transporting their gold to hide it from the Germans during WW 11 absolutely fascinating.

Great Excursion - We were a little confused prior to boarding our train as the reservation was for 12:50 on loading platform 2. We watched another train with long lines of people waiting to board on platform 1 and it was 12:30. In hindsight I should have put two and two together finally asked at 12:45 and that was our train. Other than that it was perfect! We loved this excursion. It was comfortable and very informative.

Great afternoon out - Great experience we absolutely loved the train journey it was a real highlight to our holiday, couldn’t fault that at all. Disappointed in communication at pick up point literally no one there to assist or tell us where to go, we were told to meet in the car park but no one showed up, we already had the tickets but we needed the golden ticket to alight the train, eventually we managed to find someone to help us (not from your company) and luckily got a seat together. If we’d waited where we were told to wait it could have been a different story! Nevertheless we sorted it out and the communication via email etc up to that point was spot on.

Excellent tour - We really enjoyed the train, the scenery was spectacular and the guide knowledgeable and had a pleasant voice. My husband feels refreshments would be a plus but I think delegated seats would be a plus. I would recommend this tour to other people.

Rolling but no rocking on the Rauma railway. - Incredible scenery that never stops. Excellent value for money and well operated. The train is comfortable and modern inside, with toilets, and the ride is really smooth.
