catloverinhightown Posted April 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 26, 2018 We're sailing to the Fjords, stopping at Olden, Flam, Bergen and Stavanger. We have been on several cruises between us but this is the first time our 2 year old grand-daughter has cruised. Has anyone any suggestions for child-friendly outings in the above ports? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunbeams101 Posted April 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Hello, We did the Fjords in 2016 with a then 2 year old and a 5 year old. We stopped at Bergen, Flaam, Andalsnes, Stavanger. From memory we did the following at the ports you mention: Bergen: funicular up to to the National Park (lovely play park at the top but loads of walking/adventure trails too). We did this independently, we only queued about 15 minutes to get tickets at the funicular station but got there early. Flaam: the railway - booked through P&O. Where the ship docks, there is a park, and a river, and a really nice flat green. After the railway we came back and just pottered around by the park and river. Stavanger: we just wandered around and explored, but again we found several public play parks, intertwined on the hills between the historical buildings. We found small slides built into the hills- kids loved it. Hope that helps, we found Norway to be really child friendly, the kids loved it. We found play parks at every destination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs applehead Posted April 28, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Stavanger has a petroleum museum, our daughter was 2 at the time and really enjoyed it. They had a little play area with slide etc. Some giant Lego and an old sub you could climb down inside as well as lots of models and interesting things to see. It was a great thing to do on a rainy day. We booked our tickets for Bergen's fernicular railway online before we went which was really easy and meant we didn' have to queue when we got there.

EJMcruiser Posted April 29, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 29, 2018 The aquarium in Bergen is fantastic :-) It’s about 20 min walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
