Is it possible to book a tour at your shop?
Yes, it is possible to book a tour at our shop (trailer). However it is probably safer to order up front at our website, to avoid that we are sold out.

Where do we meet our guide?
The guide will meet you by our trailer at the big open space in front of the railway museum in Flåm. Check-in & Training: Arrive 10 minutes prior to tour start. You will then receive a helmet, safety vest and sign our waiver of liability. We train you individually, and you will get necessary practice before we begin the tour (don't worry - it's super easy!)
