Early morning we arrive into the harbour town of Stavanger, with its warm and welcoming atmosphere. You are free to explore this friendly town, see the old town, with its cobbled streets and 170 old wooden houses, as well as the modern city centre. This afternoon we sail into the heart of one of Norway’s most breath-taking fjords, it’s marvellous décor dominated by pristine nature, between vertiginous granite cliffs, crystal-clear waters and luxuriant vegetation. Very close to Stavanger, the quiet waters of Lysefjorden stretch out over around forty kilometres, beneath impressive rocks. Admire the world-famous site of Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), a majestic cliff in the shape of a pulpit that rises to more than 600 metres above the waters. A bit further on, Flørli, from the top of its 4,444 steps, is the world’s longest wooden stairway, whereas the Kjerag, with its mythical boulder wedged between two rock faces, provides an unusual and unforgettable experience.
