Stavanger 2 Hour Guided Lysefjord Safari on Speedboat
Things to know
About the Activity
Action packed fjord cruise into the majestic Lysefjord. We start off by gliding out of Stavanger harbor before we accelerate to a thrilling 30+ knots. We cruise as fast as the RIBs offered by other operators, but our boats are sturdier and more spacious. Seating in front- and aft deck, plus ability to walk around the whole boat, provide excellent photo opportunities. On the way to Lysefjord, we'll pass beautiful scenery, wild nature, idyllic islands, fish-farms, small villages and cozy cabins. After we pass Lysefjord-bridge the scenery change into massive rock formations and huge cliffs. We'll visit Vagabond's cave where some rather shady people hid from the sheriff. Off course we'll also behold the world-renowned Pulpit rock as is stands 604 meters above the fjord. Learn how it was made and why the fjord is shaped as it is. Lastly, you'll hear the fascinating story of how and why "Whiskey-falls" got its nickname. Beware...the captain might put the boat directly into the waterfall!2 hours 15 minutes

The Lysefjord, spanning an impressive 42 kilometers, is a marvel of natural beauty nestled in the heart of Norway. The fjord, carved by glaciers during the last Ice Age, showcases a dramatic landscape where steep mountains, adorned with lush emerald forests and cascading waterfalls, rise sharply from pristine waters.
World renowned natural formations draw thousands to the fjord every year, including Pulpit Rock, a flat topped cliff offering breathtaking views.
As you venture through its narrow corridor, you’ll be on the lookout for the bustling wildlife that inhabits the region. On a good day it will be possible to spot seals, porpoises, sea eagles, and more.10 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location

Discover the secrets about what went on at this waterfall and how it got its nickname "Whiskey falls". Feel (and taste) the waterspray. The waterfall stands 75m tall and is unique in that it's not a single, uniform cascade. Instead, it's a complex system of streams and falls that weave together to create a truly mesmerizing sight. As the water pours down the cliff face, it creates a mist that shrouds the mountainside in an ethereal haze.10 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location
