He kept us entertained with his enthusiasm, stories and knowledge of the surrounding fauna and wildlife. At pulpit rock we had stunning views, with Alan going above and beyond to take some great photos for us. The hike was organised perfectly and lots of fun. Alan even kindly gave us some insider tips for activities to do during the rest of our trip. Couldn’t recommend this hike enough 100/10.”

We prepaid our tickets with the expectation not to have to join a queue behind people paying on the day and had to wait 1/2 hour for next bus to depart. Maybe frequency should have been every 15 minutes”

“This is a must do tour if you're in Stavanger! My guide, Sean, was funny and incredibly insightful while articulating Norwegian customs, the mountain code, allemannsretten, and much more. The hike itself was a good workout and provided some stunning views. Once at the top, the scenery is breathtaking and the lodging of the Kjeragbolten is quite remarkable. This was by far my favorite tour and hike while in Stavanger. I highly recommend it if you're in the area!”
Every kind of day out on this coast, and the best of each.
