Driving through the city we will pass the most important landmarks such as the modern port area and Solsiden (which literally means "the sunny side" in Norwegian), the old colorful wharve houses, the famous Hotel Britannia, the Royal Residence Stiftsgården. From here the tour proceeds into the outskirts of Trondheim, to Granåsen ski jump and sports facility, where the Nordic World Ski Championship will take place in 2025. After this, we will make a photo stop at Sverresli viewpoint with a panoramic view over the city. On the way back to city center, we will pass by St. Olav’s Hospital, the biggest medical center in Norway. Nearby we will pass the building of the Student Association, the main building of NTNU, the biggest university in Norway. From there we will drive to Kristiansten Fortress, built in 1681, in order to defend the city. Our last stop will be Nidaros Cathedral built in the 11th century.
Before returning to the port, we will see the Old Town Bridge and the old warehouses.

We were changed by the provider to a different tour than what we booked. It was a two hour bus plus a 1.5 hour walking tour instead of a 3 hour bus tour. The walking portion was good for the 1st hour, but the last 1/2 hour was just the walk back to the ship.
I would have preferred the bus drop us off in the old town for exploration and then get us back to the ship.
