Perfectly paced Norway Day - Great day. Chell was a wonderful guide and the other couple we were with were great. Saw lots of beautiful sites and had the best fish soup. Perfect day.

Lovely small guided tour - Had a lovely small group tour with German guide Alphonse. Very knowledgeable, view points and stop offs were great. Not guide related at all as Alphonse was great. The visitor centre is further away from the cruise ship than originally thought. So I’d recommend asking a tour company that are by the ship to send you in the right direction towards their visitor centre and you’re on the right track when you see their green beach flags.

Darlene is the best! - The weather was rainy but the tour was great! Darlene and our driver went out of their way to make everyone feel at home. We had a good lunch, saw the town, visited an old and lovely church, and listened to some music on the trip from Darlene. Would definitely recommend!

Great tour of the island of Karmoy! - Excellent tour of Haugesund and the island of Karmoy. Meeting a fisherman and sampling some crab (and a few hours later a Norwegian pastry in a historical cafe) provided breaks from the narrated bus ride around Karmoy. The guide was friendly and told stories of his youth, and answered questions thoroughly.

Excellent Tour--Highly recommend - Informative, knowledgeable guide; very clean comfortable Mercedes minibus; wonderful lunch (freshly made fish soup--more like fish stew--which was absolutely delicious and served in a small family owned restaurant in a quiet picturesque fishing village right on the water; well worth the $! Only negative, it was a hike up a hill to reach the pick up point from the cruise terminal. Would have liked them to pick up at terminal.

Viator missed the mark with this trip - I have taken other Viator trips and really felt they missed the mark with this one. If we had not been in a hurry to get back to the ship I was going to ask for money back. I dont have enough space here to detail but skip this tour. Did not feel like a small group. Van was uncomfortable esp in the way back. We arrived early so that we could sit near front as I get motion sick but they put us in an inside waiitn room and forgot about us. The group was in the van waiting for us when we walked out 5 mins before the start. The restaurant vendor was great but Viator does NOTHING to accomodate food allergies. Advertised as giving history of Vikings and visit to Viking village. We had 15 minutes at a closed church and graveyard with almost no information given. The best part was the visit to Karmoy.
