A great day - The trip to the Karmoy Peninsula with Alfons was very nice. Alfons had informed us about many things excellently interesting. He always knew how to tell new stories from the Baker family to the copper of Liberty to the protection of Olaf's church. We enjoyed the day and will recommend this trip to others Greetings from Münster Elke and Martin

Norway Memories - Alphonso, our guide was so knowledgeable on the area and country of Norway, that we learned a lot! He took us to the world’s smallest cafe, where we enjoyed pancakes made while we watched and wonderful cinnamon buns with elderflower drink. We ate in the baker’s dining room. She was a most welcoming host! Such a wonderful memory of Norway it will always be!

Great tour with lots of information - The tour was very entertaining, Alfons provided us with a lot of interesting information. Everything worked out and was on time. Only a little more time in Åkrasanden, on the most beautiful beach in Norway, I would have liked. Otherwise, everything was great. Thank you, we are glad to have booked this tour at short notice and that it is very well adapted to the AIDA berth times.

Gita tranquilla - The tour done in the rain unfortunately makes it unpleasant to do the stops, especially the one at the little beach. There is little time to enjoy the stop, about 10 minutes per stop, in my opinion too little, considering that many people also use the stops to go to the bathroom.I would lengthen all stops by 10 minutes. The guide Alfons however very pleasant, explained everything to us in very simple English, speaking slowly. He talked the whole time!
