Itinerary
Upon arrival in Haugesund, meet your guide just steps from the dock, jump on board your vehicle, and settle in for a drive of around 1.5 hours to the dramatic Langfoss waterfall. Along the way, make a stop at the Haraldshaugen national monument, which commemorates the unification of Norway in a single kingdom.
You'll have around 30 minutes at the powerful Langfoss waterfall, which drops around 2,000 feet (600 meters) down to the fjord below. That's plenty of time to soak up the waterfall's fairy tale-like landscape, surrounded by steep mountains , and take photos before returning to the port in time for your cruise's departure.

The tour took us through some beautiful scenic areas and ultimately to the Langfoss waterfall which was spectacular! Our guide, Lilly, and bus driver Gary, were excellent. Lilly gave us lots of information about this area of Norway and had lots of facts for us. I would highly recommend this tour!

What a brilliant time we had. Hans our guide was born and bred in Kristiansand so was very knowledgeable. The journey up to the waterfall was very scenic. The waterfall was just amazing! I highly recommend this tour to anyone. Thank you Hans!

Really was the best ever tour.We saw the beautiful countryside of Norway and a local older gentleman was our superb guide telling stories and local info. It really was worth every amount we paid and would definitely not miss it if I was here again.
Paul_W, May 2026
One of the best ways to see the delights of Norway, and our driver was an absolute joy, even treating us to a traditional Norwegian lullaby. He was fun and very knowledgeable and even showed us where he lived as we went 'off road' through some of the little villages, as well as seeing the spectacular Langfoss waterfalls

Unfortunately we were unable to go on this trip as our ship was unable to dock due to high winds. Our tour operator was very understanding and gave us a refund despite the late notice. Would certainly use again if we return due to their kindness. The information we received before our trip was excellent and we were given lots of instructions regarding times and meeting place.
Julia_D, Apr 2026
The trip was really easy to book and we received really clear instructions on where to meet the driver
We were taken to some interesting places and the guide was very informative.

We had to cancel our experience due to unforseen circumstances. We informed Viator. There was no problem in getting a refund. Hope to try the experience another time.
Gill_D, Apr 2026
It was very easy, the directions were good, the Viator booth was on quay side right by the ship, easy to find. Hans, our guide was very friendly and was a fountain of local knowledge which was great. It didn’t disappoint
Matthew_C, Apr 2026
Didn't get to go on the trip as our Ship did not dock due to strong winds.
Just leaving a review to say that this was completely understood, despite the late notice and we were completely refunded.
Great Customer Service - Thank you

Excellent tour….beautiful scenery and superb commentary by Hans. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of history and background about Norway.
Connie_C, Oct 2025
It's 1.5 hours from the cruise port to reach Langfoss Waterfall but it was a terrific waterfall. Afterwards we were able to stop by a restaurant/convenience store for a quick bite before heading back to Haugesund.
Teresa_S, Oct 2025
It’s an hour and a half bus ride to the falls. But our guide was very entertaining during the ride. We enjoyed seeing he old church and I particularly liked the lullaby that was sung to keep the trolls asleep.
Lisa_S, Oct 2025
It was an amazing experience kept me informed of any changes on time and our tour guide aleaner was fantastic
Louise_N, Sep 2025
This trip is incredible. Our guide Aline was so knowledgeable. She kept us all engaged throughout the trip. Nothing was too much trouble for her, and driver Gary. We had a great day out for half the price of the cruise ship tour. Aline and Gary we thank you so much.
Jana_A, Sep 2025
It was a very interesting tour. Christina was very friendly and well informed. She told us also many things about Norway, not only about the Langfossen waterfall.
We can highly recommend the tour.
Diana_C, Sep 2025
The guide was excellent however the trip was not the same as what I purchased. We saw only one waterfall and it was lovely but I didn’t feel like I got what I paid for.
