Location information for Ålesund

Introduction

Already in the seventeenth century traders and fishermen settled at the place where nowadays Ålesund is located. The town was completely destroyed by a big fire in 1904. The city was rebuilt with the help of the German emperor Wilhelm among others. Without exception all buildings from those days are in Art Nouveau style, or Jugendstil.

Population

The city has almost 45,000 inhabitants.

Location

Ålesund is located in the west of Norway, on a number of islands. The city center is located on the islands Aspøy and Nørvøy. South of the city runs the Storfjord.

Economy

Ålesund is one of the largest fishing harbors of Norway. In addition there is a lot of supporting industry for extraction of oil on the North Sea. In and around the city there are also many furniture factories. The town also draws quite a few tourists. They are not only attracted by the pleasant center of Ålesund, but also by the position of the city, close to attractive fjords.

Airports

The city airport is located seven kilometers north of the center, on the island Vigra. There are flights to domestic and foreign destinations. Ålesund Airport, Vigra is easily reachable by rental car: simply follow road number 658 and you get to the airport. The route to the airport is also clearly signposted.

Public Transport

Ålesund has a good public bus system. Bear in mind though that there are only few busses late at night, on Saturday nights and on Sundays.

Traffic and Parking

To park in the street you need to pay from 9 am until 4 pm, except on Sundays. In addition, parking is limited to two hours. You better park your rental car in one of the four large parking garages in the center of Ålesund.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is EasyTerra Car Hire the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?
