The network
Operators at Hellesylt
FRAM: You pay by AutoPASS: the vehicle is charged by type and distance, and passengers travel free. A summer tariff applies across May, June, July and August. Timetables carry a validity window, and the same connection often has two current versions.
The Fjords: An excursion product rather than scheduled transport — booked as an experience with a departure time rather than as a ticket between two points. The Fjords now sits inside the Norway's Best brand, and booking runs through its channels.
Vestlandske: Sold as a fjord cruise through UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord. Crossing time depends on the sailing — Vestlandske's daily departures take about 45 minutes, FRAM's weekend sailings around 65. Bring a vehicle and you should be at the quay 30 minutes before departure; tickets are sold exclusively through Norway's Best.
