Thank you very much for this helpful detailed info.

Please join in! I am in touch with Guided Tours Israel and would like to do

*From Ashdod to Jerusalem and Bethlehem: $99 per person on 30 Mar 2015

*From Ashdod to Masada and the Dead Sea: $115 per person on 31 Mar 2015. We are two and need 6 to get these group rates. Email Leo J. at info@guidedtoursisrael.com or topdaytours@googlemail.com for further details. If you like you can tell them Isabel mentioned it. I heard from many that this company is better and cheaper than the Thomson excursions. I myself have never cruised with Thomson before.

Thank you to Omega1 for info on public bus service from Olden port to Briksdal Glacier.

What is the location of the bus stop the shopkeeper directed you to? Which location is closest to the cruise ship pier?

How do you get to the ICA supermarket from the cruise ship pier?

Dear Cotswold Eagle,

Thank you for referring to your 2013 Brilliance of the Seas review of Alesund. Very much enjoyed your review and photos. Helpful in my preparing to take Cunard Queen Victoria Geysers and Glaciers from 22 June 2014.

OP - you may find my review from last year useful. We went to several of your ports and Ålesund starts on page 3. I have some info about getting around town, with photos.
