The excursion starts in the center of Åndalsnes, from there the bus will take you to Europe’s tallest vertical rock face, the Troll Wall (Trollveggen). Don’t forget to look behind you, because there you will find the famous Romsdalshorn. After a photostop of approximately 15 minutes, the real adventure begins.

The bus will take you all the way up Trollstigen (Troll Road), a road built in 1936 with 11 hairpin bends. Every bend has a name, you can find it on the signs placed in every curve. On the side of the road, the mountains the King, the Queen and the Bishop will be watching over you. At the end of Trollstigen you will have another break at the Trollstigen plateau. Here you will find a restaurant, restrooms, a souvenir shop and a paved path which will lead you to two platforms. Enjoy the stunning view over the valley, Trollstigen and its surrounding mountains.

I paid for and booked a private tour bus of 15pax. The actual bus had a slightly higher seat capacity which was great but disappointing as I could have organised more people for less cost per person. The meeting spot wasn’t clear. It said 100m up from the railway but it was in a car park just past the Gondola. The tour was excellent and we had more than sufficient time to see and do everything. I would highly recommend the private tour but you have to be prepared to pay the full amount up front.

The tour was very well organized, and the views were amazing. Very well priced, also. We did this trip as a shore excursion from a cruise.

Other reviews described this exactly. Met outside the museum and after movie headed up the road. Great driver and guide. A bit misty on day we went but cleared for a while while we were climbing and at top. Then headed down to the base of the Troll Wall with lots of info about that. Less than 100 meters from pier so easy walk. Great trip and we would certainly do it again!

We booked this tour to see the Troll Road since the cruise line excursions weren't available. We had an amazing driver that navigated our large tour bus without issue! We were given history and folklore during our drive. A great tour despite the rain!

Meeting point easy to find just outside the Mountaineering Museum and the station. Guide clearly visible in yellow jackets with Norway Excursions. First we saw a short but entertaining film about the Trolls and surrounding area and then we went on a thrilling ride up the Trollstigen Road with stops to view the Stigfossen waterfall. Then up to the Trollstigen plateau to see the amazing view. Time was a bit limited and the climb down to the last viewing platform was a bit hard going, but worth the effort. I wouldn't advise anyone with disabilities to try it, as there are lots of steps and it was a bit slippery with the rain. Then on to the Troll Wall with its near vertical cliffs. The guide was excellent and kept us entertained the whole time and most of all, the driver was highly experienced and I never felt worried. Overall excellent tour and a bargain compared to other tours.

Going through the Troll Road was such an experience! The bus driver was amazing maneuvering the switchbacks. Unfortunately the Troll Wall was covered by the clouds by the time we got there.

Great trip. Sylvia our guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. The driver was incredible, navigating a very difficult road. Was easy to locate the guides in Andalsnes and the tour was as described. This is a short 3hr tour that packs in as much as it can. You do NOT get long to roam around at the stops, so if that's an issue for you, book a different tour.

Beautiful scenery even though clouds and rain closed in on us at the top of the road. Peter was a great guide, very informative and easy to understand. I recommend this tour.
