  • 5Yes and yes

    One of the most incredibly beautiful tours. It was made even better with our tour guide being as knowledgeable as he was. This is something you shouldn’t miss.

  • 5Amazingly wonderful tour

    I highly recommend this experience. The views are amazing. The drive is spectacular. Going up a road on the bus that has 180° turns. On this day it was amazing for us because the weather was clear and the views were incredible. I cannot tell you how wonderful it was. You’ll have to experience it.

  • 5A great day out! HOWEVER...

    A grand day out on the road up the pass and into God's country. That is true...it was AMAZING! HOWEVER: The only downside was there was no monitoring of excessive coughing or illness onboard and a guy behind us was coughing up a lung every 60-90 seconds ( I counted) for the ENTIRE trip. Just 9 feet away sat a second tour guide who could have easily asked him to mask up. Or better yet SCREENED him before boarding as unable to travel. As a result my partner and myself cought the same horrible respiratory infection and it ruined the last 4 days of our cruise. We're now home 8 days later still sick as dogs.

About Ålesund

Ålesund is a harbour town on Norway's west coast, rebuilt in Art Nouveau style after a fire, with fjords and bird islands within reach.

Ålesund lies on a cluster of islands where the Norwegian Sea meets the Sunnmøre Alps, in Møre og Romsdal. A fire in 1904 destroyed most of the town, and it was rebuilt within a few years in Art Nouveau style, with turrets, spires and ornament in stone along the harbour canal. The Art Nouveau Centre tells the story, and the 418 steps up Aksla hill lead to a viewpoint over islands and peaks.

Top-ranked sights in Ålesund: Alnes Lighthouse, Alesund Church, Giske Church.
