CathyK2 Posted March 16, 2015 #901 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Thank you! I really appreciate your kind words. It makes it all worth while. Dotted along the route there will be picnic places with a tables and benches. If they are all occupied bring a blanket from the ship to sit on:) If you need grocery stores there are many on the street en route the car rental agency. There will of course be others along the way but as further away from town the more expensive they get. If you stop at the grocery store "Spar" in Valldal they have lots of local produce (dried cured ham) (Tind is my favorite). The shop also have fresh warm bread and a lovely deli counter with warm dishes. Have fun plotting and planning:) Lars Spar it will be. It sounds perfect. I got these instuctions somewhere on this thread on how to get to the car rentals. Or I think that's what my notes were. Does this make sense on how to get from the cruise port to where Avis is? As you exit the gate from the pier take a left and follow the road pass the hotel: Quality Hotel Waterfront (on your left)...Walk toward the shop "Maxbo" on your right....Continue to a Shell/7-11 patrol station on your right. Its not more than a 5-10 minutes walk. I know you have also mentioned seeing if they will bring the car to the pier. That may be a plan too, but just in case that didn't pan out, I wanted to make sure I had the directions correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The road you should take is called "Nedre Strandgate". I enclose a map. Rutebilstasjonen is the buss terminal. You will be docked next to the terminal. Walk over "Hellebroa" and onto Nedre Strandgate (This is the yellowish road in the map. Number E139) Follow the road to "Sunnmøre Tingrett". Avis/7-11/Shell petrol stasjon is on the first floor of this grey brick building (The building is the court house and police station). https://www.google.no/maps/dir/%C3%85lesund+rutebilstasjon,+%C3%85lesund/Sunnm%C3%B8re+tingrett,+Nedre+Strandgate+50,+6005+%C3%85lesund/@62.4705738,6.1473962,431m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x4616da47802db34b:0x38dcb6621ccd5e56!2m2!1d6.15417!2d62.4705!1m5!1m1!1s0x4616da3af8b094c3:0xc2a89452c591cc21!2m2!1d6.139281!2d62.470783!3e2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Fe L&L Posted March 21, 2015 #903 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Lars, I've eagerly been following all the great infomation you've posted for us foreign cruise passengers. Many thanks! We'll be in Geiranger the morning of August 4 this year, and Hellesylt that afternoon. There are shore excursions offered by Oceania that go both ways....from G. to H, and from H to G. Do you have any suggestion as to which direction might be better, or does it even matter? I know that must seem like a dumb question but..... Both seem to offer the same sights, lunch and a hike. I assume we'll see the fjord well from the ship no matter which tour we pick? Also, I have not found any private operators that offer this overland trip from one town to the next. Have you heard of any? thanks in advance, Larry desertrat@herecomesthesun.me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the ship will stop twice in Hellesylt? I never heard that before as normally ships only offer the tour from Hellesylt to Geiranger. Very interesting:) Geiranger Turbuss & Taxi is a company that offers private tours. They seem to have two websites: http://www.geirangerturbuss.no/nb-NO/Om-oss.aspx http://www.geirangertaxi.no/en-GB/Default.aspx info@geirangertaxi.no Unfortunately there seem to be slim pickings when it comes to private tour operators in the area. I guess its because its ruled by a few;) Normally the tour companies sell their services to the cruise lines first. Then, if there is availability they will reply to special requests.

I-Cruiser Posted March 22, 2015 Author #905 Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I wanted to give you all the heads up about another interesting tour options from Ålesund IF your ship stays in port the entire day. From June 1 to August 31 you have the options of taking the Hurtigruten from Ålesund sailing to Geiranger. There is the option of round trip with the ships (Ålesund - Geiranger - Ålesund) or sail Ålesund to Geiranger then bus back to Ålesund. The ships leaves daily from Ålesund at 09:30 am and arrives back in Ålesund at 6:15 pm. If taking the bus back to Ålesund you will leave the ship in Geiranger at 1:30 pm take the bus from Geiranger at 4 pm and arrive back in Ålesund at 7 pm. The price per person for round trip with the Hurtigruten is NOK 747,- From September 1 to October 31 Hurtigruten cruises the Hjørundfjorden. The ship leaves Ålesund at 9:30 am and arrives back in Ålesund at 5:15. The price for this tour is NOK 536,- per person. http://www.hurtigruten.com/us/?country=US http://www.hurtigruten.com/no/ Edited March 22, 2015 by I-Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lars:) It is confusing on this end also. The ship is sched. to be in Geiranger from 7am-1pm and in Hellesylt from 3pm-5pm. The Geiranger tour is 8 hours, begins at 8am, ends in Hellesylt. The Hellesylt tour is 7.5 hours, begins at 3:30pm the same day and ends in Geiranger. I "assume" the ship will make the short trip from one village to the other and back? Trying to find out.

Hellesylt is at the beginning of the Geirangerfjord so it could be that the ship stops on its way in and out of the fjord. I would think if the ship is due to stop in Hellesylt twice that day it would say in the schedule. Also, since the ship is in Geiranger at 7am the port stop in Hellesylt had to be at approx. 4am-5am!!:eek: Somehow that sounds a bit to early for an overland tour:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I-Cruiser Posted March 23, 2015 Author #913 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I posted the walking tour some pages back but as they are so popular I will post them again: Explore Ålesund on foot… Tour 1: Ålesund Guided walk AALESUND MUSEUM (OPTIONAL ) A stroll through Ålesund reveals a town full of colourful and beautiful architecture as well as strong maritime traditions. Enjoy the charming pedestrian zone and the picturesque fishing harbour Brosundet where the fishermen sell their catch directly from their boats. See the panoramic view of the town from the lower part of Mount Aksla. Experience the distinctive Art Nouveau architecture; the town was devastated by a fire a winter’s night in 1904, leaving 10.000 people homeless. During a period of three years, the entire town centre was rebuilt in this unique style with a myriad of turrets, spires and medieval ornaments. TOUR DESCRIPTION Guided walk through the town centre and the inner harbour. Please note that the tour does not take the group all the way up to the vantage point at Mount Aksla. Optional for this tour is to include a visit to the town museum, Aalesunds Museum, that gives a vivid insight into the history of Ålesund. The permanent exhibitions are devoted to the great town fire in 1904, World War II, as well as the development of the town as one of Norway’s most prominent fishing- and shipping ports. FIGURES & FACTS Duration: 1,5 – 2 hours Capacity: 20 pax per. guide Season: All Tour 2: Ålesund Guided walk & The Art Nouveau Centre In the great fire of 23 January 1904 the whole town of Ålesund was destroyed, and between 1904–1907 a new town rose like Bird Phoenix from the ashes. More than 400 houses were designed by 50 Norwegian architects, strongly inspired by an international influence of Art Nouveau and National Romanticism. The town has a unique place in Norwegian architectural history. Its international significance is confirmed through participation in a European network of Art Nouveau cities including Glasgow, Vienna, Barcelona, Brussels and Riga. Visit the National Art Nouveau Centre located in a beautiful building from this period. Enjoy “The Time Machine” that takes you back to the great fire in 1904. Through a multi media show it gives you a direct insight into the dramatic happening that stormy winter night. Informative and entertaining! TOUR DESCRIPTION Guided walk through the town centre, the inner harbour and the town park. The tour includes a visit to the Art Nouveau Centre. Coffee & cakes are available at the Art Nouveau Centre. FIGURES & FACTS Duration: 2,5 hours, 3 hours including coffee & cakes Capacity: 15 pax per. guide Season: All year Note: Walking tour Visit to the ART NOUVEAU CENTRE included. TOUR 3: H KING THE SUGARLUMP MOUNTAIN (SUKKER TOPPEN) Admire the spectacular views from the peak of the Sukkertoppen Mountain. The impressive sight of the town with a never ending range of majestic snowcapped peaks in the background is just unforgetable! Opposite you can enjoy the magnificent view of the islands stretcing out into the Atlantic Ocean. Quite a contrast – and well worth the climb! TOUR DESCRIPTION The tour starts with a short coach ride from the town centre to the starting point of the hike, Hessa, approx. 4 km from the town. The hike goes on a small and narrow pathway along a ridge of the mountain, Sukkertoppen. The hike to the peak of the mountain takes approx. 1 hour. Coffee and cakes at the vantage point before descending down from the mountain. The guide will carry a thermos flask of coffee – the participants will carry their own snack/cake. The guide will bring along a first-aid kit. Return to the pier by coach. FIGURES & FACTS Duration: 3 hours Capacity: 20 pax per. guide Season: Summer Note: Walking will incl. uneven and sometimes steep terrain and can at times be wet in certain areas. Windbreaker recommended. Good shoes required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CathyK2 Posted March 25, 2015 #914 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Lars, This one may be a tougher one for you to answer, but thought I would at least try. When going to Norway, people say you must see at least one Stave Church. I know there is suppose to be one a bit off the Troll Road that we plan to be taking (Rodven Stave Church) but wonder if that is too far off the beaten track and would risk missing the ship. Are there any others around in the area that would be worth considering? And if this isn't the cruise port you would recommend searching one out, is there a different port? I know that Bergen has one not far but since it had been burned down in the 1990's, it had to be rebuilt and I've heard that if you have seen others, this one would disappoint, which is why I will keep that one on the back burner and keep looking. In Trondheim they talk about a replica in a museum but again, still weighing options. Any input on this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a stav church in a village called Lom but its over 2 hrs drive one way from either Geiranger or Olden. One of the best preserved churches in Norway is Borgund stav church.

Obviously I haven't been there, but have been working on pulling all my ports together so yes, I'd copied down directions on how to get to Fantoft Stave Church, just outside Bergen. I was told that the light rail is right next to Central Station in Bergen. Bergen Light Rail to Fantoft or Paradis. Fantoft: By Safari supermarked there is a sign pointing to the Stave Church. Paradis: Walk up Birkelundsbakken hill to the parking lot on the left side. A small, steep path leads to the Stave Church from there. I hope that helps.

Al54 Posted March 26, 2015 #922 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I was lucky enough, last year, to visit both Rodven (from Åndalsness) and Fantoft (from Bergen). Rodven is more a chapel than a church. This chapel is totally authentic (never been moved, when a lot a stave churches have been) and the only one on a shore : nice surroundings, charming stave chapel but a little bit small and simple to be "the only one to see". In my opinion, although rebuilt, Fantoft is a marvel : in the heart of the forest, with those carved dragons'heads on the roof, the place is simply magic. Yes, it has been rebuilt and I understand it matters for some people, but, after all, St Petersburg palaces have been largely rebuilt after WWII and the amber room is not authentic, is it a reason to skip the visit? And, being french, I can tell you (in secret, of course, don't repeat it) the Eiffel tower is no more the one she used to be during the19th century : they have to change pieces every year!

Envoyé de mon iPad à l'aide de Forums Agree completely. Having traveled to a number of places in Europe and the Baltics, one begins to realize that much of what we see is "restored, recreated, rebuilt, etc". Of course the "real" thing is always preferred, but we have not been disappointed by those sites faithfully restored or rebuilt. (The St Petersburg area is an excellent example - not only the palace, but the churches, museums, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again..your help is invaluable. You will be able to use it when you have the pin. A pin code is normally very easy to get. I have been fishing in the fjord a few times and never caught anything:) Probably just my luck:D For sure it will make for a very tranquil and serene experiance since the boats only take up to 12 persons. The boat will take you very up close to the shores and the waterfalls. The fishing route is the same as your cruise ship will take in/out the fjord. There is a guide onboard who will tell you all about the life along the fjord in past. The guide will also tell you about the farms dotted along the fjord. If you are lucky and catch some fish they can make you a bbq after. If you have a few hours to spare after doing the major sites then I would suggest you go for the tour.
