Viking Homelands - Flam vs Eidfjord

[dwlmg]

We rebooked our Aug 2021 Viking Homelands to Sep 10, 2022. Interestingly, our invoice says we tender in Flam rather than Eidjford. Anyone have any info on the differences between the two? Apparently in years past Viking went to Flam and then switched to Eidjford.

Flam is located on the Sognefjord (Aurlandsfjord branch) north of Bergen, and Eidjford is on the Hardangerfjord , slightly south  of Bergen. Flam is better known and more “touristy”, but both are breathtaking! The Flam rail trip up the mountain is the highlight of the visit to Flam You can’t miss with either one.

We were docked in Eidfjord in 2018, and were told at the time only 1 ship allowed at a time. Lovely small village, with a large inn/hotel.
