Super Tour with Super Guide! - Alfons, best man! Great guide, great tour! How much does this man actually know? We travelled with 4 adults and 2 children, Viking Adventures also provided child seats, which was great! Highly recommended!

Cruise port pickup tour of haugesund and the surrounding area - Lovely tour of local area. Informative guide and driver who knew lots about the local history. Tranquil, picturesque and quiet. Great tour if you find yourself in this area on a Sunday as haugesund itself has very little open so it was lovely to see into the surrounding area

Well organised excellent overview of Karmoy - An excellent 4 hour bus tour of the region including Norway’s own Statue of Liberty, a beautiful white sand beach, the pretty village of Skudenshavn with a warm welcome in the tiny coffee shop and an ancient church. Darlene not only gave us an excellent overview of the area and the culture but entertained us playing her accordion. Also good communication from Gaute at Viking Adventure. Would recommend.

Great excursion with Guide Alfons - An exciting and good guided tour on 9.9.2025! Our very sympathetic German guide (Alfons) has lived in Norway for decades and excels with his knowledge of the Vikings in particular.

A bus excursion with top guide. - We did a bus excursion with Viking Adventure in Haugesund. What a fantastic guide, Alfonso. He knew a lot about the surroundings and the history of the Vikings. Very clear in German. All well arranged. We were picked up at the cruise terminal of our ship. A top guide!

Great tour. - Wonderful tour to see the beautiful countryside and small villages. Darlene our tour guide and Har our driver were outstanding. She showed us a pancake shop with bacon that was delicious. She also entertained us with her accordion and told us interesting stories. The area is beautiful so glad I took this tour. l

Great overview of the region - I think it was a great overview of the sights in the region. The bus was comfortable. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We were there on a cruise stop for the day, and it was poring rain for part of the day, so it was great to be on the bus.

Tour was supposed to be in English and German. 90% was in German so missed out on a wonderful learning experience. - Disappointed with the person giving the tour. He only spoke German initially until someone asked him to also speak in English. He did initially but then reverted back to mostly German. On the excursions off the bus he only spoke in German. Almost got lost on one of our stops because no directions were given in English. I took the tour to learn more about the history of the area and learned very little. I would not recommend to English speakers.
