What you can expect

Discover the magic of Ålesund — the most beautiful town on Norway’s west coast, famous for its fairytale Art Nouveau architecture and stunning panoramic views.
This 2-hour private sightseeing tour combines a walking experience through the historic city center with a comfortable car ride to the best viewpoints.

Your local guide will meet you at the port or hotel and lead you through Ålesund’s charming streets, rebuilt in the early 1900s after a devastating fire.
As you stroll past pastel-colored houses, stone towers, and intricate facades, you’ll hear fascinating stories about the city’s rebirth, its fishermen and traders, and how German Jugendstil became the symbol of Ålesund’s identity.

Cross the bridge to “Little Venice” — the heart of the city — and see how canals, bridges, and narrow lanes create the city’s unique atmosphere. Learn how this once-poor fishing village grew into one of Norway’s most prosperous coastal towns.
With your expert guide, you’ll not just look at buildings — you’ll truly understand the artistic details that make Ålesund the Art Nouveau capital of Norway.

After the walking part, relax as we drive up to Mount Aksla, the best viewpoint in town. From the top, admire the breathtaking panorama of the Sunnmøre Alps, the fjords, and the surrounding islands.
Depending on time and weather, we can also visit the island of Hessa for even more spectacular scenery.

This tour is flexible and designed to match your pace and interests — perfect for first-time visitors and cruise passengers who want to make the most of their limited time in port.

Come and discover why Ålesund is called Norway’s “Art Nouveau Fairy Tale” — a city that will capture your heart with every step.
