Interesting city with unique past

kim_H, Mar 2026

Magda was wonderful to walk around Bergen with. Very knowledgeable and kept a good pace for seeing the architecture and how it relates to Bergen’s unique history. We wanted to learn about the history of the area beyond WWII involvement. (We had covered that a bit already on previous tours with a group.)

Enjoyable tour with the delightful Judith.

Husband and I enjoyed our walking tour with Judith in the rain, and we have the stickers to prove it. We learned it rains 230 days a year in Bergen so live doesn’t stop because of the rain. In fact, Judith road her bike to town and we saw classes of school children on outdoor adventures. All you need is a raincoat and waterproof shoes and pants if you have them. We did fine with just a raincoat. We enjoyed learning the history of the wharf and the selection process for Norway’s king. Judith was patient in answering our many questions about Norwegian life. She also provided great food recommendations. After a wonderful meal at Fish Me we went to Fjak for rich hot chocolate and fancy chocolates. Will go to Villani Trattoria tonight. Thank you, Judith. You are a delight!

This tour was a perfect...

David_C, May 2025

This tour was a perfect introduction to Bergen. We took it the first morning we were in town. Jeff was very knowledgeable and made sure we saw the sights we were interested in seeing. He also gave us many ideas of what to do our remaining time in Bergen and we enjoyed those as well. We highly recommend this tour.

Brilliant time in Bergen

This tour of Bergen was terrific. Our guide was amazing from the first contact (via email) until we said goodbye at the end of the tour. She was personable, communicative, informative and entertaining. We could not have had a better experience!
