The tours allow tourists to explore five notable points of interest: the majestic Oslo Fjord, the KODE Art Museum in Bergen, the historic Stavanger Cathedral, the vibrant Mathallen food market in Oslo, and the scenic Kyststien coastal trail in Haugesund. Each of these destinations offers a unique insight into Norwegian culture and nature.

Complimentary headphones are provided to passengers to enjoy these guides, enhancing their sightseeing experience with informative and entertaining commentary.


In addition to its robust multilingual offering, Hop On AS has made strides in accessibility and environmental sustainability. Most of the company's buses are EURO 6 certified, featuring advanced emissions control technology. The fleet is also designed to accommodate wheelchairs, guaranteeing the inclusion of all tourists.
