We enjoyed our excursion. Sandy did a great job telling us the history and tidbits of Alesund. My only suggestion is to not spend as much time at some of the stops, for example the boat museum. I would have rather had more time to walk around the town after the excursion.

The tour was nice. The first stop has a very steep hill to climb which is hard for elderly and not so fit people, we made it with difficulty. The view was nice. Second stop at the museum also had hill. The church stop wasn’t worth it and had to pay to go in. The lighthouse was very nice. The guide Sandra was good.

Fairly average. The first stop at the view point was a total let down and then we all ended up hanging around waiting on the bus. The Museum was fine but too long. Preferred the shore to the church and the lighthouse was good. Nice to experience the under water tunnels and to see the outskirts.Picked up and dropped off at the ship.

Our guide was kind and extremely knowledgeable. We spent the day seeing highlights of the city. Climbing the lighthouse was a highlight.

The female guide was absolutely brilliant. She made the day special.
The weather was lovely and warm and the tour was very varied. Would recommend to anyone thinking of trying it.

Some scenery from bus was pretty. Did not get to stop at lighthouse, which they told us last minute we couldn’t go in but we were told we could walk around at least. Did not happen. Instead they drove us to a parking lot by a closed restaurant, told us we could get out and visit the “town.” There was no town and no time anyway. There were two stops that required considerable hill climbs, which several of us opted to pass on those. We saw two churches but couldn’t go in. Narration by guide was not particularly engaging. Honestly, most Viator tours are great. This one was not. I’m not sure it was well researched and planned by hosts.

The stops were very underwhelming, we were on the bus for far too long relative to the stops. More specifically, we stopped at a restaurant lookout, but the restaurant was closed and fenced off, so the viewpoints were very limited. We stopped at a church, which closed so we could see the one original wall. We drove through the parking lot of the aquarium, but didn’t go in. I understand we didn’t have time due to the ship’s schedule, but why drive by something we weren’t going to go to? Our last stop was a gravel pull-out that overlooked a barge where the city has a large bonfire. So we basically stopped to look at a burned barge.

Our guide was a nice woman, enthusiastic, but the bus driver was surly.

The tour should be re-worked to include an hour or more downtown, which looked lovely. But we simply drove through it.
