4.00The tour was good value for money. The driver was very knowledgeable about the area and was able to keep the small group interested. Stavanger itself hasn't much to offer in way of sights.
Tour Stravanger with Oli!!!

5.00We had an incredible day exploring Stavanger. We booked a tour and our driver and guide, was Oli. From beginning to end, he went above and beyond to make sure we experienced the very best of this beautiful city and its surroundings. Oli was exceptionally knowledgeable, he gave us insights and a deeper appreciation of Stavanger’s history, culture, and local life. He didn’t just take us from place to place—he shared stories, answered questions, and made the tour engaging and fun. We saw all the highlights, from charming neighborhoods to stunning viewpoints, and even crossed the impressive city bridge for unforgettable views. What stood out was how much Oli cared about making our experience special. He definitely made our excursion stress-free and truly memorable. If you’re visiting Stavanger, I can’t recommend Oli enough. This was one of the best tours we’ve ever had, and it made our trip unforgettable.
Great tour

4.00There isn't a lot to see here. Nice ride through many areas. The museum housed antique cars, tricks, motorcycles and farm equipment. Not what we expected.
Cute town.

5.00This is a great trip to see sights outside the centre of Stavanger. Our driver was very pleasant and very knowledgable. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip, learnt a lot and saw some very interesting sights - would definitely recommend.
Interesting overview away from the tourist crowds

5.00In a three-hour tour we got a “private” insight into the Stavanger region. Very personally with friendly guidance we experienced a fun afternoon away from all tourist crowds. Thank you for making the tour for only two participants. If you want to take it a little quieter and escape the crowds of cruise ships, this is the right place!
Really knowledgable...

5.00Really knowledgable guide, extremely good with speaking English, we connected and laughed/joked about things while learning about Stavanger. I’m really pleased we went it alone and picked this - we visited so many different places at a fraction of the price our cruise line would have.
