Round trip to UNESCO Geirangerfjord
From NOK 895
Ålesund - Hellesylt - Geiranger - Sjøholt - Ålesund
Visit the beautiful fjord Geirangerfjorden and enjoy the view of the mighty mountains!
This trip goes from Ålesund via Sykkylven, famous for furniture industry, over the mountain pass to Stranda and from there to Hellesylt where the fjord cruise to Geiranger starts.
The ferry cruise from Hellesylt to Geiranger takes 1 hour, and while cruising down the fjord you can see beautiful waterfalls and small farms in the steep mountain sides.
In Geiranger you will have time for some sightseeing, shopping, and perhaps a visit to the Norwegian Fjord Centre which are only a few minutes on foot from the centre of Geiranger and located next to Hotel Union.
The bus trip back to Ålesund goes via the spectacular Eagle Road. The Eagle Road is part of the road between Geiranger and Trollstigen, which is a Norwegian Scenic Route. Norwegian Scenic Routes are selected roads that run through landscapes with unique natural qualities, along coasts and fjords, mountains and waterfalls. The routes are intended as alternatives to the main roads, and the drive itself should be an enjoyable experience. On the Norwegian Scenic Routes web page you can read more about Norwegian Scenic Route Geiranger – Trollstigen.
From the Eagle Road the bus then continues to Eidsdal where you take the ferry to Linge. From Linge the trip goes via Sjøholt to Ålesund.
Note! When you arrive at the ferry harbor at Hellesylt, please approach the ferry personnel to show them you already have tickets. You do not have to wait in line together with travelers who are buying their tickets at Hellesylt.
Departure from: Ålesund bus terminal (Rutebilstasjonen), track 3
About our trips
This is a “Travel like the locals” tour. The tours use public transport, i.e. regular buses, ferries and boats, but we have done the planning for you so that you can concentrate on enjoying your trip. You travel on your own - there is no guide or tour leader. On most of our tours you must change several times between different buses/ferries/boats, and it is up to you to make sure you catch your connections – truly travelling like a local! (The tours are set up so that the buses, ferries and boats connect.)
Tours cannot be booked for public holidays and during holiday periods such as Easter and Christmas due to deviations in the timetables. The timetable shown is valid for the periods when the tour is bookable.

Note! Due to ongoing works at Linge ferry quay, the bus cannot drive down to the quay. When you arrive at Linge, you must walk up to the main road and take the bus from there.
