Museum by Boat & Coach
We have planned this to be a 1hr tour with, our slow going shuttle boat from Eidfjord to Vallavik. During the boat tour, the captain will guide you about the sourounding things, and hopefully (but no guarranty) there will also be wildlife to see.
In Vallavik you go on shore where our coachdriver will be waiting, and bring you uphill to a photomuseum, and have a guided sequence there. After 1,5hrs in Vallavik, the coachdriver will need 1hr or less to take you back to Eidfjord.
In the busyseason, we might operate with 12pax leaving Eidfjord with the Coach, and 12pax with the boat. Making a switch in Vallavik so that both groups get both experiences.
On request we can do this tour with start/stop in Ulvik, Kinsarvik, Granvin, Utne and Lofhus if you like. We can also do this as a RIB both ways, or Coach both ways if it suits you better. Maximun group size is 12 when the boat is involved, and 16 if we do this with coach only.
Highlights
Photographer Anders Paulsson Wallevik (1874 – 1965), or A.P Wallevik as he was also called, took up the art of photography at a time when very few people had access to a camera - and the developments often required a kerosene lamp and a magnifying glass to clarify what/who appeared in the light. It's not uncommon for a solemn bunad bride with a relaxed smiley band.
And this is where Wallevik differs from the very few - because it is clear that this was a vessel with a special focus on both light and motif; several of the photos are of far better quality than those taken by today's photographers (e.g. me) with the latest technology.
Wallevik was by all accounts a prominent visual artist - and now he is getting a well-deserved exhibition in his own hometown, Vallevik in Ulvik.
