YouTube Video Description

This port report is from Kristiansand, Norway, where we sailed with Holland America Cruise Line. We cover the port basics and our experience touring this small, sunny and relaxing place. We go exploring on foot for a DIY excursion, visiting Fiskebrygga (Fish Market), the Kristiansand Cathedral for an organ recital, Posebyen, Bystranda Beach, Ravnedalen Park. Let’s get the lowdown!

We found that many videos lack the details we needed, such as parking, restrooms, available services, and even sidewalk quality. We act as your “port scout”, providing first-hand reports on essential information that others overlook; our videos cover port terminals, independent excursions, goods, services, transportation and even ship tours. With time ticking away during your port visit, we understand the importance of sound planning to make every moment count. Let us give you the Lowdown!
