Highlights

Lesund City & Panoramic Views
Begin your journey in Ålesund, driving through the fairytale streets of Art Nouveau architecture. Since access to the top of Mount Aksla is closed to large buses, use the Uniktur service and we will take you along panoramic routes where you can still admire the stunning views of the city, fjords and the Sunnmøre Alps.
Giske – The old Viking capital
Cross under the sea through one of Norway’s longest tunnels (4.2 km) to reach Giske Island, known as the birthplace of Rollo. Walk in the footsteps of Viking chieftains and explore the island’s Marble Church, built in the 12th century.
Godøy & Alnes Lighthouse
Continue to Godøy Island, where you’ll find the charming fishing village of Alnes. The legendary lighthouse here stands as a beacon of Norway’s seafaring past. Here you’ll also find a cozy café serving local pastries, homemade hot chocolate with whipped cream, and authentic locally made wool and wooden souvenirs. In the exhibition hall, you can always admire artwork by Norwegian artisans and purchase any items you like.
A short walk in the middle of the fjord
For those seeking more, visit the historic Skodje Bridges, or drive through the Music Tunnel, guarded by a lifelike Troll sculpture—a playful nod to local folklore.
Optional Extensions Vigra – Outermost Viking Island
Venture to Vigra, once part of the Viking stronghold, and discover pristine beaches, rugged landscapes, and echoes of Norway’s ancient heritage.
