It was effortless to find the vendor on the pier. The bus was packed almost entirely with people from the cruise ship. The tour guide provided detailed historical information and made the tour very enjoyable. He gave clear time and instructions so everybody came back on the bus on time. Well worth the money paid for the ticket.

An informative guide and a very comfortable bus! Whilst in truth there is little to see here - the guide did his best to impart useful information about the area and Norway in general.

The tour guide gave us great stories of the local area and Norway in general with history of Vikings and life of people. We felt we learn quite a bit of Norway.

Had a fantastic time with Alphonse today! He was super knowledgeable, giving us great insight to the history of Haugesund as we traveled throughout. The tour was fantastic, making 4 different stops. Each stop was very different!!
1. Haugesund’s own Statue of Liberty… did you know the copper that made the original Statue of Liberty came from Haugesund? Thanks for that tidbit, Alphonse!
2. Akrasanden - absolutely beautiful beach!
3. Skudeneshavn - picturesque little town with an “old” and “new” side. Explore both, so beautiful!
4. St. Olavs Church - make sure to hear about the tale of the troll and the curse! So interesting!
All in all, a wonderful day filled with great information, and a driver that navigates very narrow roads like a pro!!

We spent a very enjoyable few hours on this guided bus tour with Elphonse as our guide and Gard our driver, (apologies for any misspellings). The tour included 4 stops, all offering toilet facilities and photo opportunities.
Elphonse is knowledgeable in his history and made the tour fun and interesting and we returned to cruise ship in plenty of time.
I highly recommend this tour and Viator booking was quick and straightforward.

This was a superb 4 hour tour taking in the panoramic sights around Haugesund. Alphonse was our guide who expertly imparted knowledge of the area plus Viking times bringing you up to current history!! Well worth the money.
