Fantastic tour and overview of Alsund - Was a wonderful tour, lots of sights and questions answered about Alsund and Norwegian life and history in general. Daniel is great communicator and cultural translator as he is Canadian but has lived in NO for 13years. The walk was well paced and we saw most of the highlights.

Daniel was great, Ålesund is beautiful - The cool, light rain didn't keep us from having a fantastic time in Ålesund! Daniel was a great guide, taking us on a walk around the city center and up to some scenic viewpoints. What a beautiful city.

Daniel - great tour guide. - We were in a small group - just 4 of us. Daniel was our guide and was very knowledgeable about the history of Alesund. He pointed out all the important buildings and gave us plenty of time to take photos. Daniel was very friendly and answered all our questions. He even gave us water and something to nibble! It was a very enjoyable walking tour.

Great tour, great guide! - Our tour guide was exceptional ! Knowledgeable, friendly and kind - brought water and local treats for all of us. He also stood up for us when a local shouted bad words and profanity at us.

Great walking tour - Daniel had great knowledge of the areas and was able to answer any questions that we required information from him
A photo of the statue at the meeting place would make it easier to find.

Tour guide cancelled our tour - Daniel cancelled on us days before our tour in order to travel with his family. We were left scrambling to make other arrangements.
