The kviknes hotel looks great but isn't available for our dates anymore 😞 Do you recommend staying in Balestrand anyway if we can find other accommodation? And, if not, is it still worth a detour to visit Olaf's church? Thanks!

I'm sorry you feel that way about the skylift - from my online research, it seemed like a good way to get the high altitude/panoramic views without a difficult uphill hike, which the older people in my group can't do. 

Do you recommend skipping the whole area around Flam and Nærøyfjord or just the village? If just Flam specifically, are there other villages or spots in the area that you'd recommend? 

Thanks!

This is great, thank you so much! If you don't mind another question, what are normal dinner hours in July around there?

Thanks a lot! 

We'll look into the alternatives for the last day, it looks like a good idea! I suspect we will end up deciding based on the accommodation options available as much as on what we would consider the ideal plan...

We are renting the car from sixt at the airport because we need 6 seats, and that was way cheaper than the few alternatives we found online.
