“main attraction had been removed with no communication or chance to cancel. disappointing to say the least”
A 2-hour small-group e-bike tour of Haugesund with Viking landmarks and Jason deCaires Taylor’s Rising Tides sculpture park.
“Excellent tour, the bikes are simple to use despite never having been on an E bike before. The guide, a young girl whose name I won’t try to spell, was excellent and provided us with lots of information about the area. Great way to see a lot in a short space of time. Would definitely recommend”
3-hour Haugesund cruise for families: sail into Avaldsnes Viking Farm, visit the Viking Planet digital museum, and enjoy guided boat views.
“The Viking farm was very informative but we only had about 20 mins to look around - which was fine as there wasn't much to see to be honest. I was expecting more exploration and hands on activities. Our guide was brilliant on the boat trip which was interesting and with beautiful scenery. The Viking planet was very small and totally digital. Really expensive for what was in there and we were done in about 40 mins. Again, I was hoping for more. Quite a disappointing day out really”
A 3-hour minibus and hike in Haugesund to Kringsjå farm for sheep-calling fun, apple cake, and coffee, plus National Monument and Rising Tides.
“It was fun learning the history of Haugesund and the farm. The snacks were great and feeding the sheep was a lot of fun. The hike to the farm is short but includes steep hills. Some of the older participants from the cruise ship had a hard time with this.”
Half-day Karmøy shore excursion with Blue Flag Åkrasanden beach, Skudeneshavn lunch and strolls, Ferkingstad fishermen, plus Viking Avaldsnes and St. Olav’s Church.
Every kind of day out on this coast, and the best of each.
