“What an incredible experience. We were picked up from our accommodation in Stavanger by our guide (the wonderful Toa) and driven up to the base of the hike to Pulpit Rock. He chatted comfortably in the way and pointed out areas of interest without being at all intrusive. On arrival he made sure we were prepared (water, waterproofs etc) and then explained the hike, including where the sections of the greatest ascent were. Throughout the hike he was careful to speak to us all and make us feel incredibly safe but excited and motivated. He was very happy for us to take lots of photos and showed us where the…”

“I highly recommend this guided hike! It was a lovely group (I joined the hike alone) and I felt absolutely comfortable and safe at all times. Our guide, Rasmus, was extremely patient and told us lots of interesting information on the way. We took an alternative path for part of the way and it was so much nicer and way less crowded. It was an incredible day!”

“Yesterday, I went on a hiking tour to Preikestolen, and it was absolutely incredible! I've dreamed of visiting the Norwegian fjords since I was a child, and my dream finally came true. Although I booked a group tour, I ended up being the only participant, which I was actually very happy about. A huge thank you to the company for not canceling my tour. I also want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my guide, Erlend Berne. We spent five amazing hours talking about all kinds of topics. He made the hike much easier, showed me the best photo spots, and even took some fantastic pictures of me. Plus, he…”

Review of the Preikestolen hike from Stavanger, with local guides, small groups, snacks, pickup, trail advice, price, and practical tips.
“Theo, our guide, did a terrific job getting us up and down the mountain. He was helpful, friendly and entertaining! The thing for everyone to understand is that the hike may not be moderate for you as some descriptions say. Like many things in life the older you are the more difficult things can be. My wife and I around 70 and the hike was not moderate for us, it was hard! Theo was patient and considerate in helping us with the journey. We exercise quite a bit and are generally healthy. While the younger folks were scampering up and down the mountain, we and the other older people in…”

Review of the guided winter hike to Pulpit Rock from Stavanger, with pickup, crampons, small groups, pricing, trail advice, and booking tips.
“A great trip up Preikestolen. The guide, Helga was excellent, very knowledgeable and friendly. We were provided with crampons which worked really well as some parts of the trail were quite icy and full of snow. It got easier once you past the first part of the trail, so keep going! The top was very quiet and we were lucky to have a clear and beautiful sunny day. Thank you for a wonderful experience.”

“We loved every moment. Erlend was the best guide we could ask for. He got in touch with us the day before the tour so that everything was covered from our gear to our dietary preferences. The first part of the trip - the cruise - was great. There were plenty of seats, great commentaries and the food too was satisfactory. Then Erlend was kind enough to pick up our lunch and druve us to the basecamp. Erlend had all the gears needed - poles, head lamps, backup hiking shoes, hot tea and so much more. He made sure no one was left behind and stayed calm with us. As…”
