travellovers2 Posted November 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Hello! Has anyone taken the Glacier Sightseeing bus? We understand it's one hour? What was your experience? We're thinking about doing this and then spend time walking around Olden. Any advice on what to do/see in Olden? Thank you very much for your help! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallasm Posted November 12, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Also consider Loen Skylift to the view point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're trying to figure out if the ship has a shore excursion that will take us there and back. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travellovers2 Posted November 15, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Looks like there's a shuttle that takes you the lift and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineoclock Posted November 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Our May cruise has only 2 excursions listed. One I don’t want to do & another I’m not sure I can with limited mobility 😬 Any ideas about guides in Olden thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that in Olden itself & do we need to prebook? That sounds right up our street so thank you. Just out of interest which is your favourite cruise line - you are an officianado!

The bus stops right across the street from where the ship is docked. This is their website: Open Top Sightseeing Bus To The Glacier | Olden Cruise We found them while looking at videos of people that have been there. Our favorite cruise line is Princess, although we choose our cruise based on the itinerary, not the cruise line, but if we can find what we want on Princess, we choose them first.

wineoclock Posted November 17, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Thank you. Will get around trying to trying Princess at some point. Have only been on celebrity & Disney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisatsu Posted November 20, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Climate change has had a pretty big impact on the glacier, so if you look at older posts, be aware that those from 5-10 years ago will have had a very different experience than those more recent.

Sallyandtex Posted January 21, 2023 #11 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Do you think the glacierbus and lift will need to be pre booked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BertieRulesOK Posted January 29, 2023 #12 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I'm interested in cheaper trips or DIY excursions as I find it hard to justify the price of those offered by P&O. Any hints or tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
