Beautiful
Sue_N, Nov 2024
Our bus driver did an excellent job. Excellent Tour. What a Beautiful Country. We saw Breathtaking views.
All I can say is I took the excursion
Annemarie_C, Oct 2024
It was a chilly, dreary and drizzly day. You couldn’t see anything. Because of the weather, we couldn’t travel the Troll Road. We didn’t see any Trolls. We didn’t see any breathtaking views. The Tourist Center was closed. Perhaps on another day. But it was a bust. Of course that’s at due to Mother Nature. So it just made for an average excursion.
Good Tour with a Bad Description
Erin_P, Oct 2024
The Land of Trolls sightseeing tour offered us a beautiful opportunity to see this area of Norway. It included stops at waterfalls , mountain tops, and a lovely spot with views for lunch. Sometimes the views were obstructed by the rain and clouds but that’s the reality of Norway. There were a couple of issues which included the closure of the road with the hairpin turns. It has been this way since June 2024 and is indefinite for at least the next year or so. So the description is not accurate. Our tour guide was lackluster. He could have used our time together by providing more information about the area’s geography and the lifestyles of its inhabitants.
Itinerary
Alesund
The Art nouveau town of Ålesund is a perfect starting point for excursions in the beautiful surroundings. It is the largest city in the province of Møre og Romsdal and it has a unique setting across several islands streching out into the Atlantic Ocean. Destroyed in 1904 by a devastating fire it is now noted for its concentration of Art Nouveau style.
After passing Sjoholt, our first photo stop is at Kokarsteinen along the Storfjord.

We continue the tour via Stordal and further via Valldal, famous for its tasty strawberries, until we reach the spectacular Gudbrandsjuvet where we make another photo stop.
15 minutesTrollstigen foothill viewpoint
After the ascent up to the Trollstigen Plateau, we take a longer stop to enjoy the breathtaking views. Food and drinks can be bought in the shop/cafeteria.
45 minutesOn the descent down from the Trollstigen Plateau, we make a photo stop close the the impressive waterfall of Stigefossen.
