We saw so such much natural beauty , it took our breath away. Real WOW moments. Our gulde Hans was friendly and very knowledgeable a real gentleman and what was so lovely was that he was born in the area and shared many stories about his family, the buildings, history and life in this area and Norway in general, we learnt a lot and we will remember this day for the rest of our days. Thank you Hans .

Ok
Clare_g, May 2023
Lovely informative tour guide however please note it’s a 1.5 hr drive to the waterfall and the same back with half hour to get out take pics - we thought we were going on a walk but spent most of time on the coach
Response from Host, May 2023
Hello Clare. Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the tour was not up to your expectations. The times at each stop are specified in the tour description. We're sorry you didn't have a chance to read it in the tour description. At no time do we indicate that you can hike to the top of the waterfall. This would take a minimum of 4 hours and would be impossible to fit into the time your ship is in Haugesund.
Beautiful Haugusund

This excursion was a lovely way to see the waterfalls and Haugesund area! Our tour guide was very knowledgable and made the tour fun!
Wonderful Langfoss Waterfall
Lisa_M, May 2023
The guide on the trip was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The driver was also lovely...they both did everything to ensure we enjoyed the trip as much as possible. Langfoss Waterfall is an incredible sight, which I'm so glad I got to see. The guides were also very aware that we needed to be back on our cruise ship on time .
Response from Host, May 2023
Hello Lisa. It’s awesome to hear how much you enjoyed our Langfoss Tour. I can’t tell you how much it means for us to hear this. We are very grateful by your feedback!

Good excursion
Kristina_W, Sept 2022
Good excursion. Guide was very good & we enjoyed her personal stories. It was a long drive nut very scenic.
Response from Host, Sept 2022
Thank you so much for your opinion!
Just a long long bus ride for ten minutes of staring at water.
Kristi_A, Sept 2022
Basically this is just an hours long bus ride. Bus was comfortable and clean. But one Fjord looks just like any other or lake so not sure I would take this again or recommend it. The loading of the two busses was a nightmare as seats were assigned but the bus drivers weren’t aware of that so it was a big mess. The waterfall was pretty.
Response from Host, Sept 2022
Thanks for your opinion. We have verified that the stop at the waterfall was 35/40 minutes as it´s specified and not 10m as you indicate. On the other hand, we apologize for the inconvenience caused when you boarded the bus. We always try to make this process as organized and easy as possible

Economical alternative to shops shore excursion to waterfall
Helen_R, Aug 2022
Waterfall was very nice, but purchasing the add -on boat ride on the fiord allowed you to see the falls up close and personal. We were told by the tour operator that ”there wasn’t much to do at the falls” so you were better off purchasing the boat ride. Looked like there were some short paths to the falls. There were 3 additional stops: a viewpoint, the national monument, and a roadside store with bathrooms. Much less expensive than the boat tour. The tour operators red cabin is 2 minutes from the pier. The downside of this trip is that it’s 1 1/2 hours to the waterfall. The scenery is nice but, a nap was had by many.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
Thank you so much for your opinion. We are glad to know that you enjoy the experience.
Spectacular Waterfall
Ian_M, Aug 2022
I can recommend this excursion. It is a long way from the port but well worth the trip as the waterfall is spectacular. We also took the boat trip that lets you get up close and personal.

Thank you so much for your opinion!
Unfortunately the trip...
Trevor_C, Jul 2022
Unfortunately the trip was cancelled owing to extreme bad weather conditions resulting in the ship not docking in Haugesund. However the positive outcome is that the trips costs will be refunded. Hurray 😃😃
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Thanks for your opinion!
A missed good time
Larry_A, Jul 2022
Even though we were not able to dock in Haugesund because of some inclimate weather, we give them 5 stars for their understanding. They were quick to give us a full refund. Before we knew any of this, they were easy to contact and responded quickly to my questions about the tour.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Thank you so much for your opinion. Unfortunately the cruise canceled the arrival and we could not offer our services. We made the refund the same day. We hope to see you soon!
A must see waterfall.
JanJan_L, Jul 2022
This is one of our favorite tour of the entire trip. The waterfall is breathtaking. We were very fortunate to have good weather to take the Fjord Cruise to get close to the bottom of the waterfall. An experience I will remember forever.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Thank you very much! It´s very nice to read that our travelers enjoy the amazing landscapes in this part of Norway. See you soon!
Good job, but her English...
Beverly_M, Jul 2022
Good job, but her English was really weak. Plus her knowledge of the area was weak. She did her best.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Thank you so much for your opinion. We work hard to provide the best service to our travelers. We will try to improve the aspects that you mention. Thank you for showing us those where we can do better!
Awesome Experience
John_C, Jun 2022

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Disappointed
MikeL, Jun 2022
Just an average not distinguished water fall, not worth the time and the effort to see it. I am not recommended this tour
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Hello Michel, Thank you for your feedback. We would like to know how we can improve our services. When you assign your rating, are you rating our services or the place that you visited? We work honestly and professionally with local guides to show Norwegian culture and history. We deeply regret that you did not like the tour (or the waterfall). Best wishes.

Julio_E, May 2022
Nice travel guide. Nice to do the optional boat ride. A waterfall after an hour ride with choice of staying at waterfall or getting boat to get close
Response from Host, May 2022
Thank you Julio. Norwegian landscapes never disappoint. I hope you enjoyed your fjord cruise. All the best
