CROWD-TACTICALThe town stays easy, but the Lysefjord cruises and the Pulpit Rock trailhead fill up on busier days — pick one format and book it before you sail, since they're mutually exclusive on a single port day.
Keep the morning for the fjord (the early sailing) and save Gamle Stavanger and the harbor fish market for the afternoon, once the shore-excursion rush has passed.
Why is this a little crowded?
1 ship is scheduled today, representing approximately 3,998 passengers of combined capacity.
