We took the bus with two main targets in mind: the Sunnmore museum and the Aquarium. We had ample time to enjoy both, with a long lunch break in between. Overall, we liked the convenience of just getting on the bus when we finished our visits.

It would have been good to know ahead of time that you had to take two different buses to see Alesund. One for the city portion and one for the lookout portion. And even then some the routes overlapped so you went to the same are twice. The record commentary was good. Disappointed that didn't stop at some of the locations.
