Did you buy the tour or do it individually?

If you buy the tour, can you still upgrade to the better seats?

I am targeting Sep 2 (Sunday) to go one way from Oslo to Bergen.

Far as I can tell, this consists of:
  • Oslo to Bergen train - 750kr (get off at Myrdal)
  • Scenic train from Myrdal to Flam - 100kr
  • Cruise from Flam to Gudvangen - 200kr (**seems there is an option for a Sognefjord Express Boat from Flam to Bergen too**)
  • Bus from Gudvangen to Voss - 100kr
  • Re-catch the Oslo to Bergen train in Voss and stay on until Bergen

So, individually this appears to be about 1150 NOK (appx $192) while Fjourd Tours is selling for 1165 NOK (appx $195).

Are those individual prices about right?
Anyone recommend taking the express boat from Flam instead of doing the bus/ train?

Thanks!!
