On this popular tour, you’re going to see everything from flat landscape in the west, to the breath-taking natural beauty of the magical fjords in the east. The most famous mountain formation in the Lysefjord is Preikestolen, internationally called “the Pulpit Rock”. It is also one of the most iconic rock formations in Norway, easily accessible from the city of Stavanger. You will see the Pulpit Rock rising 604 meters above you, with an impressive supporting cast of waterfalls, idyllic islands and magnificent scenery of cliffs and canyons. This excursion is the perfect adventure to experience the beauty of Preikestolen / Pulpit Rock and beyond on a short timeframe.
Closing in towards the Lysefjord we slow down to low cruise speed, allowing you to enjoy the calming sea breeze and enchanting view from deck as we silently glide through the waters. Our yachts are adapted to explore the most hidden waters, to see the most spectacular places and beautiful historic sites from the Viking éra en-route to the ice polished walls of Lysefjorden. The yachts are fast and comfortable, and you can enjoy Champagne with your family or friends while taking photos or just enjoying the breathtaking views.
This cruise departs two to three times daily in high season, most often at 10:00 and 14:00 – but our departure times are not set in stone, and we will make it fit to your schedule if you wish to go at a different time. Want to see the sunset or sunrise? We can arrange a departure time for that as well.

Go bigger with an extended cruise. During this cruise we visit some of the most famous locations of the Lysefjord, like the Pulpit Rock, Kjerag Boulder and Flørli – but also some lesser known gems that will leave you breathless.

REVIEW - OMG
There are plenty of ways to see the fjords of Norway, but they all pale in comparison. This was the most amazing part of our trip so far – and it has all been pretty amazing. Swimming in the fjords off a beautiful private yacht, bathing in a waterfall while on the yacht, fresh fruit and champagne, the views – just WOW! Our captain (owner and operator) took us to THE best places – pulpit rock, a private island and lagoon. Our captain is the nicest guy imaginable. He totally caters your tour of the fjords and tends to your every need. It’s a bucket list kind of thing! I can’t say enough great things about this tour!
