Creator's Key Takeaways

This is a unique little town here. It's already 12:45. So, we I think they say we need to get back in 4:30 or something.

Put a good walking shoes and you can walk all the way to town. So bye until next time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wear good walking shoes to walk from the ship to town.
If booking individual tours instead of cruise excursions, ensure you return to the ship on time as the cruise line won't wait for you.
Be mindful of the high cost of food and items in Norway.

YouTube Video Description

Welcome to the very first port video from our 113-day Europe cruise aboard the Sky Princess! Instead of booking an excursion, we set out to explore Stavanger, Norway completely on foot. We wandered through the beautiful white wooden houses of Old Stavanger, explored colorful streets, walked the historic waterfront, browsed local markets, visited the area around the Norwegian Petroleum Museum, admired centuries-old churches, and simply enjoyed discovering one of Norway's most charming cities at our own pace. We're Ed & Mai, full-time travelers who sold our home and most of our belongings to travel the world on a budget. Our Europe adventure includes 113 days aboard the Sky Princess as we visit incredible destinations throughout Norway, Iceland, the British Isles, and beyond. If you're planning a cruise to Stavanger or simply enjoy travel videos that show what it's really like to explore independently, we hope you'll come along for the walk. 👍 If you enjoyed the video, please Like, Subscribe, and leave a comment letting us know your favorite part of Stavanger—or if you've visited before!
