Kristiansand and Gothenburg

[epcot1stfave]

Looking at the 7 night Northern Europe next year and wondered if anyone had done Kristiansand and Gothenburg before.
How far from the cruise terminals is it to the city centre, any good places to visit?
Thanks Michael

I’m looking at doing this one with my friend (she picked it.) I’ve been to Gothenburg before but not Kristiansand.

I wouldn’t say there are lots of big attractions in Gothenburg but I really enjoyed the boat trip I did on the canal and it’s a nice place to stroll around. There’s a fortress you can go up to for great views over the city.

It’s actually probably a perfect cruise stop as it’s a nice taste of Sweden but not so much to do you’d want to spend tons of time there (like Stockholm.)

Looking at this one, too. Checked out all of the port adventures last night.

This video has a nice presentation of a cruise visit to Kristiansand: The mom says the family split and went three different ways. Her coverage (the most complete of the three) is a DIY visit.
