Stavanger: Scenic Fjord Cruise to Lysefjord and Preikestolen

Stavanger: Scenic Fjord Cruise to Lysefjord and Preikestolen

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Norwegian fjord landscape aboard a silent and electric boat. Sail from downtown Stavanger along the Lysefjord to Preikestolen, the so-called Pulpit Rock. See where the “vagrants” hid from the sheriff in the old days as the boat stops by Fantahålå (Vagabond’s Cave). Then gaze up at the famous and majestic rock formation Preikestolen, towering 604 meters above sea level. Next stop is the Hengjanefossen waterfall, where the crew brings the bow so close to the falls that you can feel its refreshing spray! Grab a snack from the onboard kiosk and relax on one of the sun decks or inside the spacious and comfortable cabin. Keep an eye out for the occasional seal sunbathing on a rock. Take in the idyllic scenery before returning to the port in Stavanger.

Stavanger: Fjord Cruise to Lysefjord and Pulpit Rock

Join a boat tour through Lysefjorden and see the famous Pulpit Rock, where the selfie opportunities are as spectacular as the view. Imagine towering mountains, stunning waterfalls, and a close-up view of Preikestolen, the iconic cliff that rises 604 meters straight up. Sail with the guide and experience Ådnøy, Fantahålå, Preikestolen, and the Whiskey waterfall on a 2.5-hour tour. Listen to the guide as they tell you about the legend that says the day when the 7 sisters from Lysebotn marry the 7 brothers from the beginning of the fjord, Preikestolen will fall into the sea. So far, there are no rumors of romance suggesting this, so you can look forward to many more fjord cruises this season.

Stavanger: Guided Lysefjord Cruise to Pulpit Rock

Stavanger: Guided Lysefjord Cruise to Pulpit Rock

The captain will meet you at the boathouse (Strandkaien 34) and provide you with the neccessary gear and give a small safety brief. We start off slowly by gliding out of Stavanger harbour while passing mighty cruiseships or other vessels. On the way out you will have a beautiful view of the city centre and to some of the iconic buildings like "Tollboden" and the Norwegian oil museum. After we pass the bridge you will see a gigantic street art painting before we then accelerate to a thrilling 25-35 knots and head to Lysefjorden. We are able to cruise as fast as the RIB-boats offered by other operators, but we usually go a little bit slower due to safety, less enviromental impact and improved comfort. Our boats are more sturdy and have a roof ("sun-top") for better protection from the elements without sacrificing the view. Our boats also have a lounge/seating area both in the front and in the back, with the possibility to walk around the whole boat, giving you excellent photo opportunities during the safari. On the way to Lysefjorden we will pass beautiful scenary, wild norwegian nature, idyllic islands, fish-farms, small villages and cosy cabins and houses. If we are lucky you might even spot a seal or two and other wildlife. The Lysefjord-bridge marks the entrance to Lysefjord and from here on you will learn all about the fjord's legends and tales. The scenary will change into massive rock formations and huge cliffs, which is an amazing experience just in itself. We will visit Vagabond's cave where some rather shady people hid from the sheriff in the old days. Off course we will also behold the world-renowned Pulpit rock (Preikestolen), as is stands 604 meters above the fjord. Learn how it was made and also why the fjord is shaped as it is. Last, but not least, you will also hear the fascinating story of how and why "Whiskey-falls" got it's nickname (it has something to to with a crazy German). Beware...the captain might put the bow of the boat directly into the waterfall! After visiting the cool waterfall we will head back again and the tour will end up in the same place as we started. We are pretty sure you will have long lasting memories and cool pictures with you after this unforgettable, front row seat tour to some of the best Norway has to offer!
