Day 5 – Alesund | Trollstigen Devil’s Road & Alesund City Tour
After breakfast on the ship, guests who wish may join the “Trollstigen Devil’s Road” tour organized extra by our guide.

Alesund is an attractive city with a population of about 40,000, built on three islands, with the “Sunnmore” mountains in the background. Fishing is the city’s main source of income. On our tour, we will see charming suburban houses and their well-kept gardens along the “Borgundfjord.” Then, following the Storfjord (big fjord), we will see the town of “Sjoholt.” Here, depending on the fjord, we will head south to Stordal Bay. The town of “Stordal” is famous for furniture manufacturing. After that, we will reach the Valldal valley, famous for strawberry production. Heading toward the upper part of the valley, we will reach Trollstigen, 850 meters above sea level. Following the Troll Road opened in 1939, we will head down the lower part of the valley and stop for a photo at Stigerora waterfall. Then we will reach upper Trollveggen and enjoy the views of Europe’s famous 1000-meter-high rock walls, the “Troll Wall.” Climbers from all over the world come here to discover different routes to reach the top. On our return journey to Alesund, along Romdalsfjord, we will see small charming towns famous for wood carving and rose painting, as well as ship and boat manufacturing. Passing the “Orskog” mountain plateau, which is also popular among Alesund residents, we continue along the fjord and return to our ship at Alesund port. Depending on our time, we will have a photo stop at Aksla hill, where you can photograph all of Alesund from a bird’s-eye view. Dinner and accommodation on the ship.
Day 6 – Flaam | Magnificent Flam Fjord & Gudvangen & Tvinde Waterfall

During our stop at Grimsetelvi in another area offering yet another delightful view, we photograph the magnificent nature and return to Flam. At the end of the tour, before departing from our last port in Norway, you will have time for plenty of shopping in shops where you can find tax refunds, the famous very lightweight Norwegian down jackets, fish oils such as Omega-3, and a wide variety of other souvenirs.

We see Pulpit Rock, the most striking point of Lysefjord, the monoblock granite rock rising 600 meters above sea level. We see this rock from below, from sea level, from our boat. Although rocks appear as if they could fall into the sea at any moment from the large cracks visible on three sides of the rock, it will probably take thousands more years for this event to occur. Later, we will stop for a photo at a magnificent waterfall flowing into the sea from the high fjord, and you will have the chance to drink the fresh waterfall water offered by our guide. If luck is on our side during our pleasant sea journey, surprise animals will accompany us. We return to Stavanger accompanied by magnificent fjord views.
