Unlike our regular tours, this is a private tour that nobody else can join. This tour is a great option for cruise ship passengers, looking for a private tour without having to worry about logistics or getting back to the cruise ship in time. Gain access to hidden routes and exclusive photo opportunities along the trail, and enjoy spectacular views of Preikestolen and the Lysefjord.

The day starts with being picked up by our guide from your preferred location near/in Stavanger. After a roughly 40-minute drive, we arrive at the start of the trail (where restrooms are available). Here the guide will provide information about the trail, expected conditions, and useful tips for good hiking. When everyone is ready, the hike begins. If conditions allow it, the guide can take you to hidden spots along the way. The pace allows for adequate time to adjust clothes and equipment, time to rest and enjoy snacks, and for taking pictures along the way.

After approximately 2.5 hours of hiking, we will arrive at Preikestolen, 604 meters right above the legendary Lysefjorden. The sheer cliff face overlooks the fjord, and the panoramic view before us, makes for a fantastic reward after all the work it took to get there.

After we have enjoyed the scenery and relaxed for a while, we head back down. It normally takes about 2 hours to get back down to the parking area. Exhausted but satisfied, we get back in the car. As we get driven back to Stavanger, we process our experience of a day well spent.

If you would like to add additional items or experiences to the hike (e.g. lunch, sauna by the fjord, yoga, RIB safari, beer-tasting etc.), or to customise the tour even more, let us know.
