There weren't any taxis waiting when I went, but there are taxi services in the area. However, it is much more expensive to take a taxi than a bus. You can take the city bus to Jorepland Pier and ride the Tau ferry back to Stavanger, or you can book a return ticket with Pulpit Rock Tours (pulpitrock.no). If you don't mind paying more, (stavanger-taxi.no) is a good place for info on that.
Would any one give suggestion: totally, how many hours would be if travel from Stavanger port to Pulpit Rock, including transportation from port to trail head (parking area) and claim up to the rock, then return to the port. I want to know if I can do it within 6-7 hours during my cruise ship port in Stavanger. Thank you

Safe is a bit relative. Depends on your ability. Loads of people do this hike in the Winter months... you just need to be aware of conditions and be prepared. If you do a Google Search for ‘Hike Pulpit Rock in Winter’ there are plenty of testimonials. It’s a great hike that’s worth the effort regardless of weather conditions.
