Ålesund Travel Forum

Hi

we are looking at visiting Alesund during the Food Festival in August and have found that the hotels are either booked out or charging a lot of money. We know that we can stay in the hostel but we would like to find out if there are any other alternatives.

Also can anyone tell us what are the best things to eat at the Food Festival.

hope you can help

We are flying out from Ålesund airport at 6:00. Is there a hotel near the airport where we could stay overnight? Sorry to bother you but I cannot find anything myself on the web!

Hi everybody

I am going to Alesund for 5 hrs by cruise ship next June but to date no excursions are offered by cruise company.

What is best to see in suchashort time? Is it possible to take an excursion to Geiranger Fjord?

Thanks

When I was visiting Alesund in August I went to Fjellstue scenic point. Among the rocks at the very pik of the mountain there was a bronze plate commemorating the death of a young English aviator. He got killed over Alesund in 1944 if I remember well. Does anybody know why this plate is there and what was the name of that guy? There is no monument there, just a small plate hidden among the rocks.

Can anyone recommend a good bed & breakfast or camping cabin somewhere between Stryn and Ålesund? Preferably nearer Ålesund.
I will be driving up and down from Bergen this coming week-end and need a practical place to stay overnight.

I am going to spend a 10 days holidays in Alesund area. Ideally, I would like to rent a motorhome and wander around. Unfortunately I am not able to find a rental company in Alesund. Can anyone help me in finding the one ? Alternatively, I heard that private people who are interested in motorhomes rental post advertisments in local newspapers, but unfortunately, I do not speak Norwegian. Can anyone help me please in finding a motorhome for rent ?

Thank you,

I'm thinking of going to Norway pretty soon to visit a friend of mine. She's working as an au pair somewhere near Alesund and ive promised for a while now to go there. Just want to know how easy it would be to get there from Oslo. I checked the bus routes and it seems a little bit complicated. Can I get there by a direct route?
Thanks, Will

I'm going to be travelling with my family (wife, teen-age girl, boy in late twenties) and plan to take some variation of the nutshell tour from Oslo starting around July 16. I have only nine days from then and would love to go somewhat to the north, maybe to Alesund or evenTrondheim by boats. (Hurtigurte or Hurtigbat?) I don't know if it makes sense to rent a car to come back to Bergen (or perhaps directly to Oslo where I'm flying out of) or if it's better to take trains. Can I take boats without reservations? Is the driving ok? Am I trying to do too much? We'd really like to get up close to a glacier, by the way. Any help or suggestions about anything related to my trip would be appreciated. Thank you.
