Voss og fjordane Guideservice was established by Ingjerd Dymbe Anda in 1988 in Voss.

Ingjerd started as a tour guide for the famous roundtrip Norway in a Nutshell® in her late teens. As a student, she continued working for the tourist industry as a tour leader onboard cruise ships along the coast of Norway during the summer.

After returning to Voss, she worked as a teacher and founded Voss og fjordane Guideservice in 1988. Well aware of the importance of good training for tour guides, she developed an extensive educational program. Right from the beginning, the aim was to provide professional guide services.

Voss og fjordane Guideservice became rapidly the main supplier of guide services for shore excursions for cruise ships in the Sognefjord and Hardangerfjord regions.

When AHI or Alumni Holidays®, the premier operator of deluxe travel programs sponsored by American college and university alumni associations, included Norway in their travel programs, they chose Voss og fjordane Guideservice as their Norwegian agent. Our company developed and was in charge of the week-long program for the Alumni Campus Abroad®, which featured seminars provided by local experts in Voss and included half day to day tours.
