Stavanger Silent Lysefjord and Pulpit Rock Cruise by Hybrid Boat
Description
Sail through Lysefjorden and admire the famous Pulpit rock tower high above from the water. See waterfalls and get close to nature and keep a look out for wildlife. First we visit the Vagabonds Cave, a narrow outcrop in the side of the fjord and we discover its secrets. Afterwards, we continue to Preikestolen. Translated “preachers pulpit”, Preikestolen is a sight unrivalled in Norway. The rock formation towering over 600 meters above you seems to defy all laws of nature and it’s a stunning sight to see. Lastly we visit the 75 meter tall “whiskey” waterfall and you will learn from our guides why it has received this name. While our guides share stories and history of Lysefjord, we keep our eyes out for wildlife as well. During the cruise we have a chance to see wildlife, besides plenty of birdlife, there is a chance to see rarer animals such as sea eagles, mountain goats and possibly even porpoises.

Nice excursion with the catamaran into the Lysefjord. Very nice crew, who told us a lot about the individual sights. Highly recommended, everything worked out smoothly. The excursion lasts approx. 3.5 hours, you travel approx. 1 hour to the Lysefjord. In the fjord, you can see very impressive rock formations, including the Pulpit Rock and waterfalls.
Exceptional and the service staff is the best of the best Very well organized and perfect even for people in wheelchairs
This was a wonderful adventure. The fjords of Norway are stunning. The boat was comfortable and the crew was fantastic. Highly recommend this tour
Friendly, welcoming, and funny staff. Onboard buffet The captain brings the boat right up to the cliffs...
Absolutely breath-taking!!!! Our captain got super close to the huge waterfalls for cool photos! The fjord is amazing.
Cozy but flexible way to see the lysefjord- went with teens, husband and 83 yo grandma. Very flexible for comfort and viewing. Could go outside or stay inside as desired. Lovely modern and well maintained ship. Hot chocolate (for purchase) was great. The views were stunning. Definitely worth it.
It was great, 10 /10, I had this with my two daughters 17 and 13 and it was all worth it. The girls enjoyed every bit of the cruise. Beautiful scenery. One of the best moments we had .
Our first stop was the cave. Too bad our boat cannot get closer because the other boat was in front of the cave. I thought our boat will wait and go in later, but the boat captain decided to leave and didn’t go back. So we were disappointed. For the pulpit rock, our boat was too close to the cliff and we had to look up and still unable to see it. Then the cloud came. So we were not able to see it. It will be better if the boat didn’t stay too close to the cliff. The waterfall was the most fun part of this tour. The ship got so close to the waterfalls
Great boat trip with amazing scenery. Super convenient- boarded just steps from the port. The fjord sailing with a closeup at the waterfall was a highlight of our trip.
Excellent excursion. Friendly and courteous crew. Gorgeous scenery. 10/10 recommend. We were fortunate with the weather but even if chilly or rainy there are great views from the inside. All ages would enjoy!
