Discover the islands of Giske and Godoy, loaded with charm and history. Your adventure begins as you board your motorcoach at the pier and travel to the islands. Your journey will take you via a series of bridges and submarine tunnels, the longest of which is nearly 2.2 miles long! Soon you'll arrive on the island of Giske. Known as the 'Saga Island,' it's been inhabited since the Bronze Age. You'll get to view the picturesque white marble church built in the 12th century by the island's ruling family. Your next island stop is Godoy. You'll visit the island's northern coast, which boasts a charming lighthouse. Climb the 88 steps to the top for some stunning views of the sea, fjords and Alesund. Your final visit is to Mt. Aksla for a view of some truly spectacular and iconic vistas before returning to your ship.
