BEST Alesund Excursion Offering

Nikki_H, Jun 2024

Mila was one of the best guides we've ever experienced!! Knowledgeable, professional, funny, and just all-around exceptional. The excursion was everything we were looking for. Book early; we were lucky to take advantage of someone's cancelation.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you so much for your enthusiastic review that inspires others! You are right that one need to book this tour in advance, as our availability is limited. More and more tourists are choosing private tours and we are happy to show our Alesund from all its beautiful sides!

It is absurd that a small...

Mare, Aug 2022

It is absurd that a small Tesla was our means of transportation for 4 adults and a driver. We were packed in the back seat like sardines and it was so uncomfortable that one could not enjoy the experience.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

The car you called "absurdly small" was a Tesla Model S with a very spacious interior. If you felt discomfort, you should immediately tell about it and the guide could correct the situation on the spot. We have the same tour by minibus, perhaps you should have booked that one.

Best Tour

Jennifer_S, Jul 2019

We picked this tour because no tours were available from our ship and my elderly father had trouble walking with his cane. It was the best tour of our 2 week trip! Our tour guide was knowledgeable, thorough, took us to everything we could want to see and made it super easy for my father to not have to walk far but gave my son and I opportunities to see and do a little more/get that perfect picture/etc. the car was cool and comfortable and I could not have created or imagined a better use of the four hours we spent. VERY good experience!

Response from Host, Jul 2019

Thank you for your warm review! It was great to meet you in Alesund and show you our beautiful surroundings. I think your father was grateful to you, first of all, because of your attention to his needs. You booked a private tour and we provided it with comfort and in your own tempo. Hope to see you again in some other Norwegian ports, where Uniktur operates: Geiranger, Hellesylt, Molde, Andalsnes.
