Description
Enjoy a city sightseeing before traversing world’s longest tunnel. Drive through breathtaking fjord landscapes, and pause at two panoramic viewpoints overlooking Lysefjord with complimentary snacks.
The guided tour begins in the city center of Stavanger, right next to the cruise port. We will drive along the harbor and the waterfront, passing charming historical buildings and colorful wooden houses. As we cross the city bridge, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view over Stavanger and its many surrounding islands.
After crossing the bridge, experience the thrill of traveling through "Ryfast," the world's longest underwater tunnel and a true feat of modern engineering. From there, we travel towards Lysefjord passing small villages, mountains and lush green valleys along the way. We’ll stop at a spectacular viewpoint where you can capture panoramic photos over the sparkling Lysefjord before arriving at our destination in Forsand. After a small break enjoying complimentary snacks and drinks at a seaside restaurant, we will begin our return journey to Stavanger. Those who selects to continue the adventure with the speedboat upgrade will board the boat here.
UPGRADE: We highly recommend upgrading your experience with our five star «Lysefjord Safari on speedboat» tour, which includes safety equipment and both live and audio commentary from an experienced captain. You’ll get up close to famous sights like mysterious Vagabond Cave, world famous Pulpit Rock and the cascading Whiskey Falls and learn all about their tales and legends. This fjord safari promises the chance to spot seals and other wildlife while enjoying a small-group setting and direct access to hidden gems that larger vessels can’t reach. Feel the wind in your hair, smell the fresh sea air, and marvel at the sparkling waterspray as we speed across the fjord enjoying unique rock formations and thrilling scenery before returning to Stavanger. By this upgrade you create a unique round-tour where you'll enjoy both a scenic drive through stunning fjord landscapes and an exciting speedboat adventure. Upgrading also means you avoid traveling the same road twice, further enhancing your experience. The speedboat tour part lasts approximately 1.5 hours including the return to Stavanger, with a total experience time up to 3 hours.
