14 MAY 23 - HAUGESUND EXCURSIONS

Get ready to be blown away by the charming coastal town of Haugesund! This picturesque gem of a town is a true hidden treasure of Norway, boasting breathtaking natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and a vibrant, energetic atmosphere. From its stunning beaches and sparkling fjords to its lively festivals and bustling town center, 

Haugesund is a place that will leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. Whether you're a lover of the outdoors, a history buff, or just looking for a fun and exciting getaway, Haugesund has something to offer for everyone. So come on over, immerse yourself in the local culture, and experience the magic of Haugesund for yourself - we promise you won't be disappointed!

This excursion takes you on a scenic tour of the area surrounding the coastal town of Haugesund, as you head towards the Arquebus War History Museum. (The name Arquebus was used as a codename by a local partisan operating an illegal radio transmitter during the war.) Situated in a former factory at the top of the Førresfjord, the museum occupies an area of over 2,000 square metres and illustrates numerous aspects of Second World War history. You'll then head to Mount Steinsfjellet Viewpoint which, although only 227 metres above sea level, offers great views of Haugesund and the surroundings.

Your next stop is the Haraldshaugen Monument - a national monument erected in 1872 to commemorate the 1,000th anniversary of the Battle of Hafrsfjord near Stavanger in 872, when Harald Fairhair united Norway into one kingdom. The King chose Avaldsnes on nearby Karmøy Island for his royal estate, and the monument is erected where he is believed to have been buried.

Please note: wheelchair users must be accompanied by a paying helper to provide assistance with getting on and off the coach; wheelchairs must be collapsible/foldable since the coach has neither a ramp nor a lift.

Wheelchair users wishing to take part in this are requested to contact the Shore Excursions' Desk promptly once they are on board so that arrangements can be made. There are 18 steps to visit the smaller exhibition which is not essential for the whole experience.

Price per person: Adult £62.00 Child £51.00 (HAU04)

White Sandy Beach Hike

Enjoy an exhilarating hike along paths running from Åkrahamn to Ferkingstad on the west side of Karmøy, with many cultural and historical monuments to see en route, between Åkra and the ancient boathouse ruins at Hop. The tour start at the north end of Åkrasanden, where you can take in the superb view of the white beaches that stretch out along the coastline.

The trek follows a natural path, allowing you to admire the area's rich fauna and bird life. At the south end of the beach, the tour continues to a historic site dating back to the Viking era. Here you can see large stone monuments that symbolise the two daughters of the Viking King Augvald. The walk then proceeds to the picturesque beach at Ferkinstad, before your return to the ship.

Please note: this tour involves walking for approx. 2.5 hours and is suitable only for guests with a high fitness level.

Price per person: Adult £56.00 Child £42.00 (HAU05)

Haugesund Surroundings

Situated between the Boknafjord, north of Stavanger and the Hardangerfjord and Bergen, Haugesund is the natural "capital" of the region. Haugesund is inseparably linked to the sea and owes its prosperity to the rich herring fisheries dating from the 19th century.

Price per person: Adult £51.00 Child £36.00 (KRS01)

Kristiansand and the Cannon Museum

Combine a little of history with an exploration of Kristiansand on this pleasant 3-hour excursion. With a population of approx. 77.000 inhabitants, Kristiansand is the capital of South Norway. Join us to discover the town founded in the 17th century by King Christian IV of Denmark and Norway.

Discover its architecture with its streets strictly shaped at right angles and take a guided walk through Posebyen, the oldest part of the city, which remained intact after a huge fire devastated much of Kristiansand in 1892. This quarter consists mainly of modest, white-painted, wooden houses built for the working class.

The second leg of the tour sees you board a coach en route to Møvik to visit the Kristiansand Cannon Museum at the Vara Battery. Following the German invasion of Norway in the spring of 1940, construction of many artillery installations began along the coast, including the Vara Battery. A similar installation was constructed in Denmark's Jutland and together they were meant to guard the Skagerak Ocean between the two countries and the shipping lane to Kattegat and the Baltic.

After World War II and into the 1950s, the fort played a significant role in Norwegian coastal defence. The battery is now operated as a military history museum and houses the only completely intact 38-cm gun remaining in the world, the Krupp cannon, one of the largest ever built, weighs 337 tons, and boasts a range of 35 miles.

Price per person: Adult £44.00 Child £31.00 (KRS08)

Setesdal Village Train

All aboard! A leap back in time and a funny experience for both adults and children await you on this half-day tour departing from Kristiansand. The first leg of the tour is by coach, through the streets of the town heading inland through typical scenery, forestland dotted with lakes, small hills, and a few farms.

Continue through the little industrial town of Vennesla and along the Venneslafjord, a freshwater lake, to reach Grovane station where we swap our coach for a vintage train. The Setesdal railway was opened in 1896 linking the town Kristiansand with the Setesdal valley, discontinued in 1962, but luckily partially reopened as a veteran-railroad over 8 km. The railway is powered by a steam engine from 1894 and the trip recreates the special atmosphere of a turn-of-thecentury railway journey.

From Grovane and northwards the narrow-gauge railway runs along the Otra river over bridges and dams, through tunnels and avalanche shelters so keep your camera ready. Our destination is at Røyknes where we board the coach again to make our way back to the port.

Price per person: Adult £86.00 Child £60.00 (KRS03)

Scenic Cruise Along the Coast and Lillesand

The charming small towns around Kristiansand and the coastline dotted with islands make this a favorite holiday spot for Norwegians. Today, we invite you to enjoy a relaxing excursion by coach and boat along the south coast of Norway.

The starting point of the tour is the city of Kristiansand: drive through its centre, pass by Christianholms Fortress and the old town called "Posebyen" where small narrow streets are lined with white painted wooden houses. Continue along the residential areas of Kuholmen and Lund en route to Marvika where you change your coach with a boat.

Take your seat and enjoy a scenic 2-hour sailing along the coast admiring the Varodd Bridge, typical Norwegian summer cottages as well as the lighthouse of Oksøy. Back in Marvika you hop back on the coach for a drive along the coastal road to the little town of Lillesand. This picturesque town on the waterfront is an ideal spot for you to enjoy some time at leisure to browse through the narrow streets with shops, restaurants, and art galleries. Return to Kristiansand and your ship by highway.

Price per person: Adult £69.00 Child £48.00 (KRS04)

What’s the weather like in the Norwegian Fjords?

You might think that weather-wise, the Fjords’ only options are cold, cold and more cold. But actually, they’re pretty mild compared to the likes of Alaska and Greenland. At the same time though, it’s not exactly bikini weather either. It varies a lot by region, so be ready with your layers if you like to stay toastie.

The Norwegian fjords are a stunning natural wonder that offer some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world, and the weather between April and September only adds to their beauty, in our opinion this is the best time to travel, with the snow melting and the landscape blooming into life. The temperature during this period is mild, with long sunny days that give you plenty of time to soak up the scenery.

The cool breeze that blows through the fjords is refreshing, and the fresh air is invigorating, making it the perfect destination for outdoor enthusiasts. From hiking to kayaking, the fjords offer endless opportunities to explore and connect with nature. Whether you're seeking out adventure or simply looking to unwind in a stunning natural setting, the Norwegian fjords are sure to give you everything you want from a cruise holiday.
