Fantastic experience. Breathtaking scenery.
This cruise was fantastic. Well worth every penny! The boat itself was very quiet being electric and had comfortable seating downstairs with massive panoramic windows if you wanted to stay in the warm however we mainly chose to be up on deck to fully experience our first ever fjord. The views were absolutely breathtaking. Definitely 10/10

Loved this so much!
We booked this tour at the last minute because our cruise ship had to change our stops due to bad weather. Since we had a beautiful sunshine day, I decided to take this RIB ride. Gian was our captain. This ride was so fun and thrilling. Last year we took a RIB at a different Norway location and it was a bit boring. This was complete opposite. We highly recommend this experience.

Loved this fiord speedboat tour!
We loved this tour! We went deep into the fiord and the scenery was awe inspiring. Our boat pilot was wonderful. We had a sunny but really cold day and the tour company gave us these big float suits to wear, including gloves and goggles to stay warm and dry. Highly recommend.

Partial refund very much appreciated.
Unfortunately, due to rough seas & bad weather, our ship was unable to dock in Haugesund, Norway on October 1st. We were so disappointed that we were unable to take the excursion. The tour provider was generous in refunding 60% of the fare for 4 people. Your gesture was very much appreciated! Thank you!

Great but one & done
Great experience. Was fairly challenging for someone who only does flat and short hikes but was worth the views along the way and at the end. A few explanations but generally the guide just led our small group or stayed close to the people at the back. I hadn't realized how very uneven the stones on the path would be so I didn't bring proper hiking shoes. Even with high end padded running shoes, I ended with quite sore ankles and knees, plus cramping hamstring muscles. Fortunately we had time so I could stop to catch my breath and stretch problem joints. Just be prepared with your own water and layers. We had rain and sun plus cold at the start then sweaty climbing up and down the many steps on the path. It was critical to borrow a hiking pole for help.

Wow, what an experience!
Wow, what an experience! Stunning day with flat sea, sunny skies and breathtaking scenery. We sped across the bay and took in various sites including the iconic Pulpit Rock. Our captain & guide was Jonathan who was amazing. Looked after us well as did the shore team. Thank you so much.

Beautiful way to see the town and sights
This was a lovely experience, we did this as a group of 4 people and it was the best way to view the beautiful town. The guide was brilliant with us and it was so nice to visit all the lovely places. Would I recommend this trip, 100% I would. Thank you

Fast fun, easy from cruise port
Very fast and fun! Lots of zooming! Nice to see some of the tiny islands up close (some with only 70 residents). Not much narration, its about the speed/fun and views, not a history tour, that said, boat pilot answered questions and gave a bit of local area info. You get jolted a little bit bumping over waves so take the safwty waver / instructions seriously. staff really nice (good humor), venue close to cruise port (and has a toilet) so venue was easy to get to and much cheaper than booking via cruise operator.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-star rating for this Stavanger excursion!
Kudos to the amazing crew—they were such funny, friendly, and hardworking people! They made the whole experience even more enjoyable with their great energy and excellent service. The cabin was comfortable, and the restroom was clean and well-maintained.
Overall, a wonderful experience and definitely highly recommended! 😊

Great adventure! You only live once!!!
Started off a little shaky because the meeting point was changed and that wasn’t communicated to us or changed on the ticket or Viator. Once we got to the meeting point, it was great. We suited up and boarded a 10 person RIB. Our captain was knowledgeable and friendly. We were able to get quite close to all of the featured sites and we had an exhilarating ride to boot. Highly recommend!!!

Great Hike
This was a very good tour that kicked off on time and we returned as scheduled. Our guide was Johannes, he was well versed in details and facts about the local area. The hike itself was about 3.5 miles round trip, but fairly steep from beginning to end with some loose gravel, making it somewhat slippery on the way down. I would say it’s a somewhat difficult hike for those reasons. The views on the way up and at the top are wonderful. They provide a lunch that consists of a lunchmeat and cheese sandwich, chocolate bar and bottled water.

Outstanding service!!
The tour and guide was very interesting and informative. However, this tour operator deserves a 10 star rating. I accidentally booked the tour in Stavanger and our ship docked in Sandress - a 30 minute drive away. When we caked the operator to let them know we could t make it - they sent a van to pick us up at the ship - and delivered us back to the ship. Service above and beyond!!

Stavanger tours typically focus on the area’s plentiful outdoor recreation activities, such as hiking, biking, and exploring the fjords by water. These activities allow you to take in some of Norway’s most iconic views, like nearby Lysefjord, Pulpit Rock, and Kjerag Boulder, with the guidance of a local expert. Discover the city through a local’s eyes on a walking tour through narrow cobblestone streets to visit landmarks such as the Stavanger Cathedral and the city’s most colorful street, Ovre Holmegate.
