Do not miss the chance to get acquainted with the most beautiful city of the Norwegian Kingdom. Our Amazing city walk feels more like a friendly promenade:
• “... there was no street under your feet 50 years ago as these buildings were surrounded by water, like in Venice….
• ... this beautiful area of Norwegian Venice was specially designed for fishermen. Take a closer look, those hokes still remain as a reminder of the tough times. Let's go and discover what's inside those houses nowadays...
• “…If you do not except the challenge to climb 418 steps to the very top of Axla mountain, then follow me, I will show you one view point where you can admire the city from a bird’s eye view…”

As we walk, chat and laugh, you discover this phoenix city, which rose from the ashes and today surprises us with flowers on the facades, encourages you to praise its beauty left and right.

It was just my husband and I.
Our last stop was in a shop that sold local native costumes. We learned a lot about them from both Mila, our guide, and the clerk in the shop. Quite memorable.
Mila did a wonderful job telling us about the city and it's history during our delightful walk.

On a cold November morning, we took the walking tour with Myla. who was a friendly and knowledgable guide. The tour kicked off on time at 9.30am and was small with just 4 guests which gave us plenty of time to ask questions and take pictures. We took in many interesting sights and gained knowledge of the history and quirks within Alesund. The tour finished at the start point of the climb to Aksla viewpoint should you wish to do that (we did - awesome views!). Overall I would highly recommend this tour and the guide, it was fun and informative and greatly enhanced our appreciation of Alesund.

Very easy meeting point within 5 minute walk of the cruise terminal. Really fun and informative tour with lots of historical and social facts along with access to a beautiful hotel and a shop selling traditional dress. Our guide Myla was wonderfully warm and friendly with excellent English and great recommendations for what we should do after the tour.

My husband and I had such a great experience doing this City Walk. Radmyla was knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about showing us what makes Ålesund the “best and prettiest city in Norway.” Her communication with us was excellent.

We were not given the information regarding a start time. At 9am they rang, and we were still aboard the cruise ship, to ask where we were. As their opening times don't start till 10am, we were taken aback. Still, willing to compromise, I asked if there was a later tour in the day we could join, and she hung up.

At no point, on any correspondence, was there a specified start time. We expected 10am and would have there in good time for that. Indeed, had we had any confirmation, we could have made the 9am start. We have double checked, just in case it was our mistake, and there is nothing to indicate a start time on any of it.

A little too much history of the buildings. She asked us more questions to see if we knew the answers. Nice number of people on the tour.

Mila was a great guide, she showed us some things I’m sure many others didn’t notice! She was friendly and bubbly and engaging.
